Ticket prices will never lower the extra money generated has already been well spoken of as going on "wage inflation".

Also on a separate point Virgin Meida may well have to do a deal of the wholesale kind it done for Setanta/ ESPN with BT for the matches,as i cannot see many VM customers forking out a tenner for an extra 38 games,in much the same way ESPN/setanta relealised to get any meaningful viewing figures on VM they would have to wholesale the channels..

I can see sky sports subs going up again though to cover the vastly increased cost of EPL coverage.
