Football's coming home

Football is not just the world's most popular sport, is also one of the most profitable sports too. To take the English Premier League (EPL), for example, revenue rose to nearly £ 2billion in 2007/08 football, with 11 of the 20 best teams of posting an operating profit. In addition, the PLA is generally considered the most watched sports league in the world, and some reports suggest it is to some extent, about one billion people. This is of course the beauty of television. One table over Manchester United against Chelsea match can be spread to all corners of the earth, which means that a football fan at the southern tip of Patagonia, is easy to see as a fan sitting in a bar in front of the stadium. Football and television go together in the 21st century and to some extent, are in mutual confidence. Revenue from TV rights for the English club can buy the cream-de-la-crème of talent in world football, which in turn means that Footie fans are glued to the screen every week to see the brilliant skills place before them. Everyone is a winner, it seems. The only potential problem is for some people walk to the pub every Saturday or Sunday to see the lunch hour the day in any race can be. Add to the mix a lot of matches in the Champions League and international matches other top leagues like Spain and Italy, so football fans could end the shelling out a lot "of money cash in the pub. Two visits to the pub for a week, to an absolute minimum of £ 6 per visit (probably more, but ...) is equivalent to about £ 50 a month. That's a lot of money to spend when all the fans really want to do is see his beloved football. This helps keep the cost of satellite TV in perspective. The relative cost of a Sky TV subscription on a monthly basis could only work less than it costs to go the pub twice a week. Pull the mixture plethora of other sports that include golf, tennis, rugby and boxing, then it really begins to look like a sweet deal. Of course, there is the social aspect, to take account. However, football fans may be surprised to discover that many of his colleagues are really very strong for a household of little consolation "for the weekly showcase of the games and save them money. A small gathering and a couple of quiet drinks at home can be the tonic for fans of the country beyond, which means that football is really good and go home.
