Interesting - no mention in there of how much the rights have gone for (can't imagine it'll be a vast amount) but will be interesting to see what slice of the pie comes down to the clubs themselves.

Yet another nail in the coffin of Grecian Player however...

I assume you mean ITN not ITV...

I'm not sure. If ITN are doing all the leg work, maybe it will mean that they 1) make sure the equipment used is a decent quality and 2) give our one man media department a little less to do. That said, the FL were looking at using Youtube more prominently last season, so I wouldn't be surprised if they move away from the Player model before too long.

£2 million was promulgated at the end of last year when the deal was first publicised.

No idea Al. That's all I could find about it as regards dosh. Probably 50% to the Championship, 35% to L1 and 15% to L2 at a guess!!
