I assume it will be about the rights and terms of the PL contract which will differ greatly from the Championship.

Access to home fixtures without sky/bt/amazon for season card holders?

I thought I'd give my own thread a bump. If clubs in the Champiionship can offer this for season ticket holders, why can't clubs in the prem offer it?

"may be in lieu of a refund or part of a wider package as determined by each individual club". I prefer tp get my £222 back and decide what I do with it.

I expect so, but maybe the terms under which they offer it could differ. We've not even been offered the option.

Agree 100%, but some might decide to watch online via the club if they were given the option.

The realisation that football isn't about the fans is starting to kick in, this season will be finished off in empty stadiums to fulfil contractual obligations. The cynic in me says that they will use this as a yardstick to see how many people watch it on the gogglebox with a view to cutting out live fans altogether.
I accept it's a bit of a jump but trusting the money men with the game we love is killing it as a spectacle.
Agree. Said it in the other thread, the fact that "up to 25% of seats" will be covered with advertising is the first step towards fan-less 'arenas' with adverts plastered everywhere so those watching on the tellybox get assaulted with capitalism and the clubs make even more money.

If City had an easy to use and decent app I could see it being viable.
Until then no chance.
Keep your eye on freeview channel 11 Benny. Believe it's a Sky channel offering free to air Footy?

For me this is a very good question. Rather than take the refund could we have access to the home games, so the OP is not asking for them to be free, just at the price they had already committed to. The free to air games will be the ones not previously listed as being on premium channels so the majority of our games will not be free to view on the BBC or any other channel. This is probably something the premier league should look at
Correct me if I'm wrong. But are you saying, you would be willing to pay around £30 per game on mancity + TV Because if you are, you might be in a very small minority
