Media Discussion - 2023/24

I think we should move a couple of steps further than just TV money evenly split. It should be one central merchandise deal for all 20 PL club. Also a 75:25 split for match day revenue between home and away clubs like it was up until the 1980’s.
Before the 'big five' were instrumental in forming the premier league?
 
This bit is complete and total bollocks (the concept, not your statement).
It's fucking mad.

I mean, there are some teams that would just NEVER be moved that have multiple decades of heritage (if someone tried to move the Chicago Bears, hell would break loose), but owners have held teams for ransom trying to get taxpayer money to fund a new stadium.

Because they're franchises belonging to the league, it's just an accepted part of it. Imagine being a St Louis Rams fan, in St Louis, Missouri when you find out the owner has decided to move your team to Los Angeles.

Happened with the Lakers.
Can't see it ever happening in England.
The nearest to this was the Wimbledon situation
