There& #39;s been a lot of misconceptions and misplaced anger in regards to the £14.95 fee charge for Premier League Games.

In particular people actually public defending the £14.95 charge.... so lets look at some facts:

- Last week the PL Chiefs had a meeting with all of the PL owners and gave them 2 options.

Option 1 = 50% are not shown anywhere.
Option 2 = £14.95 PPV model.

- The owners voted 19 - 1 in favour of the PPV model, the thought being having something instead of nothing.

- The Broadcasters dictated the price NOT the PL, so the likes of SKY & BT are the ones driving the price.

- One of the reasons defending the £14.95 PPV was the uses of multiple cameras, set up and crew cost. The same camera crew that& #39;re used for MOTD? https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤔" title="Denkendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Denkendes Gesicht"> (There& #39;s no extra cost)

- Let& #39;s take Burnley fans as an example, usually they& #39;re televised 6-8 times per season. So 4 max at home per season. That means 15 home games that due to COVID they can& #39;t attend, now are being told it& #39;s £14.95 per time, £224.25 overall.

Let& #39;s total up an annual cost for the average Burnley season ticket holder this season trying to watch all the games:
PL PPV = £224.25
Season pass= £380 (cheapest)
Sky Subscription = £300 per year
BT Sports Subscription = £300 per year (ish)

Total = £1204.25 https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤯" title="Explodierender Kopf" aria-label="Emoji: Explodierender Kopf">

Over the 19 homes games that works out to be £63.38 PER GAME.

The obvious option here is not to buy it, and in millions NOT doing so let& #39;s hope that there& #39;s a "change of heart" by SKY, BT and the Premier League.

Football is once again taking the piss out of it& #39;s punters.
