So I was thinking, it is only a matter of time before every tom dick and harry can watch every premier league game in high quality... and with the rising ticket prices the fact that one could watch it for free at home or, as I do pay 35 quid for a years subscription to an hd site which streams it, people are going to be less inclinced to go to games. that 35 quid is about the same as I'd pay for a decent view for the hull game for instance.
My grand idea is for the PL to put the rights up for every premier league game, however they share it out is their choice, maybe BBC get some, ITV, Sky sports, BT sport, even eurosport could show a game a week. Ultimately they would get as much money as possible for this which could be distributed among the clubs in the equal manner that happens now. Madness surely? No one would go to a game? But part of my proposal is that this in turn would encourage clubs to lower ticket prices, and we would go back to the days where a ticket was the same price as a couple of hours minimum wage and not a days worth of min wage.
Obviously it's a very rough proposal but wanted to see if people thought it'd be a good idea, or if not, why not. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated...
