Ah yes, I remember now the weighted voting when it came to shutting down the season during Covid.

The BT deal is worth a pittance isn't it?  Also the money we, as a fourth-tier side, get from the Sky/Football League deal is largely owed to the collective bargaining power of the 72.  Sky aren't interested in us, Accrington, Stevenage etc.  But because there's enough 'lesser' clubs in the 72, the bigger ones haven't been able to negotiate on a Championship only TV deal.  Sky or any other TV company would be more than happy to ditch League Two and probably League One to just have a Championship only deal.  

If Tiers 4 and 5 secured an exclusive TV deal, I would guess it would be peanuts in comparison to the cut we presently get (about £500k I think).
