    Income from TV - Less than Tottenham

    I asked in one of the threads before have we been on TV less than Tottenham because it felt like it and here it is.




    That's disgusting. They have one decent season where they're above us for a while for the first time ever and already they're on TV more than us and not by a small margin. 4 more game than us? WTF have they done to deserve that. Not only that Liverpool shown 4 more times than us with their horrible dull season.
    So what's wrong with us. Do the people who decide this think more people want to watch Tottenham. Chelsea too were on TV more. Is our image less interesting than these clubs.

    You asked about Sky, this will include ESPN games.

    Anyway, we've received a little bit more than Chelsea but only marginally less than Tottenham. After the summer we had, they probably thought our games wouldn't be worth showing unless they were against the big teams.

    Is that important? The point is with our stature and premier league history why were we shown only 19 times not even 20 and Tottenham 23 times. This may not be important to some people but it bothers me. Liverpool finished flipping 8th and they're shown 4 more times than us but its more understandable with their stature. Chelsea have far less fans, who's dying to watch them? finished 6th and they're shown more than us. Something's wrong

    It is when you make a thread declaring yourself right. Also, Sky the main broadcasting company selected us the same amount of times as Tottenham and more than Chelsea. I am quite happy for us to stay away from ESPN.

    I did edit my post a few times from my first post but I'll repeat in case you didn't see it. The reason it is so close, overall, is by virtue of thinking a) we'd be nowhere in the league this season given our start and b) thinking Tottenham would be in a title race by about December.

    Both of those elements changed.

    And that would be a rubbish excuse from them. I just think one of the 2 clubs most responsible for the popularity of your product should be more respected. Tottenham contributed nothing.

    Yeah, hostile. You just said "Is that important?" a few minutes ago. Anyway I was referring to you saying it felt like Tottenham had been shown more than us, which is fine and that here was the proof. It was about Sky specifically you asked though before and that's where the bulk of matches will be shown.

    ESPN choose the less important games, generally.

    Good observation OP- it seems we are going to have to learn the hard way.
