Salt in the wound.

The Premier League expect the TV deal to go up nearly 40% globally from 18/19 so regardless of PSG, transfer fees were going to get even bigger anyway.

The PL might be disappointed next time the domestic contract is up for renewal. BT seem to be struggling for viewers, and Sky have admitted their viewing figures are falling, a straw poll amongst football fans I know (mainly match goers to be fair), suggests at least, that people are drifting away from Sky, and not renewing their contracts, we were chatting at work last night, fans of three different clubs, and we were all watching considerably less games on TV.

If PSG gave Neymar the money to buy himself out, won't he have to pay tax on it - it's either a gift, or a salary or a bonus or whatever. In which case, won't they have had to give him £300m+ to pay the tax bill?

Jonathan Wilson was talking about this today on the Guardian pod.

He said that despite sky numbers going down, the Premier Leaugue expect a small increase on the domestic deal, basically staying the same, but the global deal to go up from £3Bn to over £5Bn.

Won't be the same without James Richardson. I think their new Podcast kicks off next week.

Dont think they r "pissed" money they get, but they lost the player to PSG. and feel that PSG have not folowes or repected the FFC rules, to make fair trade.

what i hate about this, is what will it be next year 80m for LB or RB, team can demand 160-180m for avrage striker!

I dont like what PSG did.

Haha. Deal with it Barca fanboy.

Fair enough, but domestically a lot of fans are turning Sky and BT off.

On a side note, one of the lads I was chatting with last night, a match going (but none season ticket holder) Spurs fan, was going to go to a friendly this weekend at Wembley, until he enquired about a ticket, and discovered its the same price as a league game, £50, for pre-season kick about, that's outrageous in anyone's book.

I agree. I've not bought it cos split across teo channels like that it's ridiculous. It's just not worth the price imo

As far as I'm aware, it's no longer classed as an income but as a capital gain.

When they pay the release clause it's classed as a capital loss now. Thus there's no tax to pay.
