Quote: Durham Giant "Have not been able to check all the channels and individual prices but they all seem roughly the same to me football channels are priced the same as as Rugby andcricket etc. Yet sky pay billions for football.
It seems viewers are still paying a lot for sports channels to watch sports that get little or no funding from sky.
I will not pay £22 a month for Rl when sky pay it 25 million a season when they charge a football fan £22 pcm to watch football teams sky pay 100 million per team per season.'"
It might cost the same per viewer, but a lot more people subscribe/watch football than RL.
£22 x 3,000,000 = £66,000,000
£22 x 50,000 = £1,100,000
