Premier League clubs likely to scrap pay-per-view model for second lockdown period

[Joe516]

The Premier League is likely to scrap the controversial pay-per-view method for matches after November's international window.

Clubs will instead look to devise a new solution that will cover the Christmas period.

A definitive decision was not taken at a shareholders meeting on Thursday but discussions are said to be ongoing.

However, the £14.95 fee - which led to significant protests among fan groups - is expected to be dropped.

It is understood that the model used in September, where all games were shown live by the Premier League's broadcast partners, is the likely direction of travel.

Pay-per-view remains on the table but a final decision is not expected this week.

No one really was happy with the PPV model, so something positive from the money greedy c*nts that are the premier league.

PPV was never going to work.

Going forward having ALL games shown on TV should be how it's done.
