Nice to see that we are up nearly £3 million on last year to £51.7 million

Champions Manchester United earned a record £60.8m in television revenues for the 2012-13 season, more than any of their Premier League rivals.

United were the most televised club, with 25 of their 38 matches broadcast.

Manchester City's second place finish saw broadcast income fall 4% to £58.1m, while bottom club QPR received £39.7m.

A new three-year broadcasting deal starting in August will allow next season's bottom side to earn more than this year's winners.

Television revenues will increase for all clubs next season after the Premier League's broadcast rights were sold for £3.018bn for seasons 2013-14 to 2015-16, an increase of £1.77bn.

The figure does not account for overseas rights, which are still under negotiation, and such a sharp rise in revenue prompted several managers and chairmen to emphasise the importance of staying in the league.

Relegated Wigan, Reading and QPR will all receive an increased parachute payment, while next season's league winners are expected to receive close to £100m in broadcast earnings.

In total, the Premier League's 20 clubs received more than £972m from domestic and overseas television rights in 2012-13.

Half of all domestic broadcast revenue is split evenly among the league's clubs, with a quarter of the money paid according to a team's Premier League position at the end of the season and the final 25% depending on how often a team is televised.

Despite finishing third, Chelsea (£55m) earned less than fourth-placed Arsenal (£57.1m) and fifth-placed Tottenham (£55.8m) because fewer of their games were televised.

Arsenal and Liverpool were televised 22 times each, with Tottenham live on 21 occasions and Chelsea just 16.

Fulham, Norwich City, Reading, Southampton, Stoke, Swansea City, West Brom and Wigan Athletic were the least televised clubs, appearing live on 10 occasions each.

All overseas revenue is evenly split and this year accounted for a payment of £18.9m to each club.

Of the sides promoted last summer, West Ham (£48.7m) earned the biggest share of broadcast revenue courtesy of their 10th place finish.

Both Everton and Aston Villa appeared on television four more times in 2012-13 than in their previous campaigns, prompting both to benefit from a £2.9m rise in revenue. Newcastle United's 16th place finish led to a £9m fall in their share.

That'll be another 3m added to the "operating costs", then.

This is why signing big names and creating hype is important, it gets you on the box more often.

Agree with creating hype. You have to sell yourself at every opportunity. Not certain signing big names is a massive part of it personally.
 
And to think that the team that comes last in the league next year will get more money than Man Ure got for winning the league this year!!
 
Liverpool got more TV money than us, what a joke? I would understand if it included Europa League tv money but I presume it's just Prem. long where the days when you got more money for finishing in a worse position.
