With respect, who do you think (TV Company) in their right minds would offer a TV deal to a 'nothing' league? That's why Clubs, WV included, are streaming their games on various media platforms.

Of the 9/10 weekly Championship games attract an aggregate attendance of about 10k (and that is being generous, and we are at home). What viewing figures do you think 'THE CHAMPIONSHIP HIGHLIGHTS' would get?

@7-vikingnomad it would level the playing field for sure which makes a more competitive league. The championship needs to have a tv deal imo

What deal would this be? Which company would pay money to have viewing figures probably only in the 4 digits?

You'd also prob struggle to get them to do it for free with set up costs.

@7-vikingnomad Oldham are rumoured to be paying drinkwater £70k if that's true that's ridiculous money for a club with one thousand fans

You could get 2 decent championship players for that money, who'd be better than dishwater
