This article just blew me away from the guardian http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2009/feb/04/sky-premier-league-coverage-deal I have cut out most of the article but how can anyone first justify this and second what hope does it give others

Premier League clubs were last night breathing a sigh of relief after BSkyB agreed to pay a figure believed to be in excess of 1bn to retain the live television rights to the majority of the biggest matches from 2010 until 2013.
.
The Premier League chief executive, Richard Scudamore, has spoken optimistically about the prospect of matching the total of 2.7bn brought in under the current deal, which represented an increase of 70% on the previous one, despite the global economic slump.

Don't worry, I'll get some mad Japanese medicine to deal with it. 

Midfielder - I don't understand how you can be shocked at the figures being thrown around??  It's the most watched league in the world - there's hundreds of millions of viewers in East Asia alone, every weekend.  The biggest games (your Man U vs. Arsenal type of fixture) draw nearly one billion viewers worldwide.  Advertisers (and subsequently, the channels that carry those advertisements, in this case Sky) will pay a _lot_ of money to be exposed to that sort of audience on a weekly (bi-weekly during busy parts of the season) basis.

I can't even imagine how much that really is....thats a crazy ass amount of money.

http://www.xe.com is your friend. 

 

[Redline]

2,700,000,000.00 GBP    =    6,070,315,595.51 AUD
United Kingdom Pounds   Australia Dollars
1 GBP = 2.24827 AUD             1 AUD = 0.444787 GBP


That's no help....I cant imagine how much that is either other then more then I'll ever earn.

Wait till inflation reaches 1,000% a week - you'll get there

 

[Redline]

Zimbabwe's annual rate of inflation has surged to 2,200,000%, official figures have shown.

The figure is the first official assessment of prices in the troubled African nation since February, when the rate of inflation stood at 165,000%.

Like that maybe?

 

[serious14]

Fark me, that's one Australian dollar for every person on the planet (nearly).......

 

[Redline]

1 Zimbabwe dollar is worth 4.5 US cents.

And you thought our exchange rate was bad.

[TerrigalUtd]

Tim Cahill + Jo = Champions League

 

[scottmac]

Tim Cahill + Jo = Champions League

they did seem to work well together. Got a lot of catching up on the Villians to do if that statement is to prove true though.

 

[jarrad]

Fernando Torres

How we missed him.

 

[loyalist]

we should just forfeit the rest of the season

 

[David Votoupal]

Great debut from Jo. We're looking pretty good for a top 6 place again.

 

[Azza-Mataz]

Fernando Torres

How we missed him.

irreplaceable, IMO works well by himself but we need decent back-up if the unthinkable happens
