It's going to make it harder for fans to watch games with lots of lunchtime kickoffs. As usual little thought has been given to the paying spectator. Away crowds are likely to drop and season ticket holders facing long journeys will have to make a decision. Likely to have an impact on games at BP. 8 camera angles will be much better than what we can now watch online. But without an atmosphere the games are not as enjoyable. Much better at BP with a big vocal away following.
If we want to be glass half full, it may make the new STHs who don't show up, not buy them for next season and watch from home instead. Those seats are then bought by fans who want to be there, creating a better atmosphere for the team to feed off. This could actually solve the current empty STH seat issue as we continue to suffer paralysis over a new ground

When will you understand we can’t afford a new ground?

As I assume that as you get more money for the more times you’re on TV this feels like it makes an even bigger division within a division.
It would sit better with me if the revenue was split evenly but I guess it never works that way.
All I know is Wrexham will be the first game shown on the opening day.

All teams are shown on the opening and final day. You would imagine one game (Wrexham) will be on TV with the others behind the red button or online. The TV game will probably get more money than those behind the red button or online.

Not really sure how excited I can get over this, the extra money is great but every club in the league gets exactly the same benefit. As a result it’s only likely to inflate wages/transfer fees once again for everybody, and now it’s more difficult to get to a few more games instead.

Sounds like that’s going to be the way.

Actually, we can't afford not to have one

You could argue the more and more % income that gets taken away from Matchday revenue could push the possibility of a new ground away further than ever , it seems like it will go that way and attendances will become more and more irrelevant . This is until 2028 ,how long until every game is streamed even 3pm kick offs ? i don't think it's beyond the realms that it could be once this deal finishes

It's a good point. The TV deal is great for exiles though, and there will always be excuses why a new ground is impossible. Attendances are already financially irrelevant at Premier League clubs but vital to the experience of those watching at home. Maybe TV cash could lead to ticket price cuts to make sure seats are filled for the cameras.
