It's actually going to be cheaper to buy a season ticket for the majority of Scottish and Enlgish clubs than what it will be to watch football on TV. A season ticket for my local club, Falkirk, is only £225.00. You can get a season ticket for most English Championship clubs from between £350.00 to £550.00

Maybe people should start thinking about going back to football and putting their money back into their local clubs, and enjoying a day out at the game, rather than lining the pockets of SKY, ESPN and BT.
I can't see that happening.

I suspect most will dump ESPN, unless they like the other offerings.
BT may get a foothold, but depends on price..remembering that it is just EPL at moment, so no way would i pay same as i pay for ESPN now.

To be honest, I might just stick with sky sports. ESPN if they drop their price, and might not go for BT.

But who knows, it will be interesting to see what is on offer.

I might even get to go to bed early some nights
