Royal_jimmy Anyone know how much TV money we'll get next season?
The new deal just signed, which starts in July 2024 sees the FL collect £935,000,000 for 5 years worth of televised football. The total number of league games per season has been increased from the current (until the end of next season) 138 league games to 1,059 league games covered live on SKY's channels or their streaming destination. This new deal defines 10 FL games shown live every weekend (presuming that'll include Friday and Monday nights) with 5 games from the Championship and 5 games from Leagues 1 & 2.
As part of this the three FL divisions will get, I think, £179,000,000 per season in a 80/12/8 split, so the Championship would get £143,200,000 per season, League One would get £21,480,000 and League Two would be in for £14,320,000. In League Two that's £895,000 per club per season.
In addition clubs will also receive a share of £40,000,000 in marketing benefits across the 5 seasons using the same split (League 1 clubs would therefore each receive an additional £40,000 worth of marketing benefits per season).
The FL/ Sky in their statement claim that sides in Leagues 1 & 2 will be overall 25% better off under the new deal than they are currently, so I would therefore suggest that the TV money next season (the final season of the old TV deal) is worth in the region of £675,000 to Reading.
