Predictions: The next A-League TV deal

[post_hoc]

I love that comment, the FFA Cup matches are barely broadcastable LOL, based on what? The grounds they play on, oh yea I forgot you AFL types abandoned local grounds years ago. The FFA Cup continues to grow and every single football fan in this country loves it.
Clearly you simply don't get it.

Overseas rights are worthless? Really? Again something I am afraid you AFL types have zero concept about. Stick to what you know Wookie.

Hey fucktard. Come at me when you get more than 29 million a year in total for broadcast rights. I know what the fuck im talking about.

Why reply like that? I was pretty civil, I simply called you out for not really having a clue about the FFA Cup, which from your background and sporting preferences I am pretty comfortable in making that assessment.

Come at me when you can get more than 1 country playing your sport in any meaningful way. But I will have to delegate it to my great grand children, Football getting more than your 'quoted' figure should allow me to 'come at you' fairly quickly.

I don't think you do Wookie and not only that you're a foul mouth fool. You know about fumbleball and nothing else. If I were you I'd stick to your strengths..........that should be easy....you ain't got many.....lloololo.oololol.......suburban fumblers......lololololololol...woops.....dropped another one.....lololololol

Thanks Terry

The problem for Sokka is that it's not really worth anything to commercial networks
The lack of natural add breaks make it unviable.

Unless there is a bidding war between Fox & Optus or another media company then there is little scope for a big increase

I see what you are saying, BUT Evidence contradicts it

EPL $10 Billion
CSL $1.3 Billion
La Liga 2.3 billion Euro
MLS $720 million

So the lack of natural ad breaks doesn't seem to be an issue for those leagues and TV deals. So I hear what you are saying but I disagree

Soccer is popular where those leagues exist. Hardly the case in Australia though despite years of trying.

Eels: The FFA Cup is barely broadcastable. The Wleague is on the ABC. Overseas rights are almost worthless - even in Asia. And they get nothing from the AFC or FIFA run games. Friendlies organised by promoters and the states arent included either. Not to mention that ratings on FTA are HALF what they used to be.

I'm struggling to see where Wookie is wrong on any of these points. Those all being the case, I don't expect the FFA to get much interest from any commercial broadcasters.

How funny are the fumblers here. They're desperately hoping the Aleague crashes and burns. They yell and swear and stamp their feet at any mention of an increase in broadcast fees. But why fumblers why?? If you feel so pathetically challenged by soccer just ignore it. By getting yourselves in a lather about it you're doing yourself emotional harm lololololol. Let it go fumblers, let it go. loloololoolololol.

And for record I think the Aleague will go very well in the new deal with Timmy coming home and other marquee players on the radar.

I think you're just struggling fullstop pal lolololol. Keep building that fumbleball wall around you and don't dare have a peep over the parapet, it's scary whats out there lolololol.

Hang on, I thought the issue mentioned by afltiscrap was that football has a problem because of no natural stoppages. The point I was making was on that issue those examples quoted don't seem to have a problem. Unless you are telling me the football in those countries is different and their are stoppages?

So you can't change the argument halfway through because you didn't like the answer.

This is directed entirely at Beaussie, afltiscrap sorry I had to bring in your post.

It is 3 years old, it is a competition that bridges all levels of football, amateur, semi-professional and professional so of course you don't understand. The HAL is being separated from the Socceroos broadcasts, and the W League is a seperate competion, so not really sure either you or Wilkie have a clue what you are talking about.

for the A League to get a decent deal, they need a superleague war like League has, two media barrons going at a pissing contest whoring the product out

Hopefully without the split competition, it will depend on how hard Optus goes for it

not as optimistic as others in regards to the tv deal, i feel like its a no brainer that it will improve, but some people saying we'll get 80m etc i just dont see it.

im expecting $60m and anything more than that would be a welcomed bonus

gallops presser where he says cahill was virtually the most important part of the tv deal was cringey as well. maybe im just bitter cahill-despiser andd that....i just cant like a guy thatkept telling us that he's doing it for the good of the game(playing in the US and china) refused to come to australia until we had to fork out $4 million(half of which is subsidized by the ffa which hurts all the clubs) at age 37 ffs- but its ok! he has footy clinics '4 da kids' in the school holidays...but charges them $1000 a head to participate....lol
