Chapter 492 Good Broadcast Income

Notts County, who won the championship, did not stay in Monaco too much, and ignored the grief and sorrow of France. Notts County was a little bit unable to cope with this habitual head of a country that didn't know what strange things were stuffed into it.

I returned to Nottinghamshire non-stop, and will face Blackburn in the league in three days. Although the opponent is not strong, Notts County does not want to have an accident at this time. You know, there are too many competitors in the league. Notts County doesn't want to be left early.

However, before the game, all the middle and high-level staff of Notts County Club held a meeting at the club. The content of the meeting was a summary of the team's operation and future development in the 03/04 financial year.

Brent is the treasurer that Soriano poached from other companies, and the topic of the entire meeting today is about the state of the team's finances, so it has always been the treasurer to present.

"The club's income is mainly divided into three important components, one is the media income, that is, the broadcast share of the game; one part is the game day income; the last part is the commercial income. Of course, for the Notts County Club, there is another An important part of income, that is transfer income!"

"Last season, Notts County had an outstanding performance, winning the Premier League and defending the UEFA Cup, so the main revenue share in the last financial year came from these two events!"

"The basic score for domestic broadcasts is 1120w, the number of broadcasts is 720w, the team's performance ranking score is 1240w, the overseas broadcast score is 280w, plus the league business development share of 120w, our Notts County club from the Premier League The league got a total of £3480w."

This figure is already at the forefront of the Premier League, almost equal to the top giants such as Manchester United and Arsenal.

The way the Premier League’s broadcast revenue is divided is different from other top leagues. Excluding the part that the Premier League has to take to maintain operations and support the development of lower-level leagues, 50% of the domestic broadcast revenue is distributed evenly by 20 clubs, and 25% is distributed according to the number of broadcasts. , the last 25% is distributed according to the team's performance ranking, and the overseas broadcast share is all divided equally by the 20 clubs.

According to the broadcast agreement signed between the Premier League and Sky Sports, last season's domestic broadcast points became 460 million pounds, and there were also 59 million pounds of revenue overseas.

According to the distribution principle, each Premier League club can get a basic broadcast share of 1120w;

In terms of broadcasts, the number of broadcasts per season is 154, the income from each broadcast is 36w, and each team broadcasts at least ten games;

In terms of ranking rewards, the last place in the league gets 62w pounds,

Not moving up a single name in the standings would add £62w.

Notts County got 20 games broadcast last season, so they got 720w in the broadcast share. This data is compared to Manchester United, Arsenal and even Newcastle and other old giants. There is a certain gap. Manchester United won last season. Arsenal got 25 and Newcastle got 23.

However, because Notts County was the Premier League champion last season, Notts County has the most ranking awards.

This figure may be unimaginable for the former Notts County. Even if Notts County is sold, it may not be worth so much!

But now Notts County can, like Manchester United, Arsenal and other giants, get the most broadcast share, which is simply an astronomical figure!

But in David's view, this number is really a bit unreliable. You must know that when David came back, even the bottom team in the Premier League could get close to 100 million pounds. Now it's incomparable. !

Others don't have David's understanding of the future. All the middle and senior staff here are rejoicing at this number, which means that Notts County has truly become the top team in the Premier League.

"This number is very worthy of celebration, but we can't be too optimistic. The new contract signed by Sky Sports and the Premier League will take effect this season, and the broadcast share has not increased but decreased, even if the overseas broadcast share has increased. But the total amount is still lower, even if we get the same results this season, I am afraid that we will earn about 3 million pounds less in revenue sharing!"

This is indeed a grim reality. Last season, the broadcasters of lower-level leagues went bankrupt, and last season's broadcast agreement also declined to a certain extent, giving people the feeling that English football has entered a cold winter!

However, David knows that this is still a temporary suffering. In the next three-year broadcast agreement, there will be a huge increase in the broadcast share, and this trend will continue in the future, until David crosses, and the domestic plus overseas The broadcast fee has been worth more than £5 billion...

"As for the broadcast share, this is something that our club cannot decide. We can only try our best to achieve the best results and get the most share. Therefore, this part does not require us to pay too much attention!" David didn't want to talk about this. Topic, at least for now, he doesn't like this point of broadcast.

Others may not understand David's mentality. You must know that this income is close to Manchester United and Arsenal, which is very important for Notts County's income.

For a club with a very successful commercial development such as Manchester United, a season's Premier League broadcast share will not become the bulk of the club's income. They have a higher game day income, and still fear the commercial income, plus the Champions League share, at least For now, the Premier League broadcast split is not that important to the extreme.

But for Notts County, the broadcast share is definitely the biggest revenue, no matter the game day revenue or commercial development, it is far behind, of course, this is without considering the transfer revenue!

The middle and high-level employees looked at each other, but what David said also made sense. The broadcast agreement is negotiated by the Premier League company and the broadcaster. It is useless for them to care about it. If you have the time, you can pay more attention to whether the results are good or not, so that you can get more shares!

"The next thing is about the share of the UEFA Cup. Because we won the championship, we also got the largest share of 320w euros. In the League Cup and FA Cup games, because of the early exit, the income is negligible!"

Compared with the UEFA Champions League broadcast share, the UEFA Cup share is pitiful. Even if Notts County wins the final championship, it will not be able to catch up with the UEFA Champions League teams who play two group matches and get more rewards. Honor, this amount of money is really incomparable!

However, this season, Notts County can participate in the Champions League, and even if the group stage has already returned home, they can still get several times the prize money of the UEFA Cup.

Everyone is looking forward to this! (To be continued.)
