THE head of the Ten Network has promised to give the A-League “the respect it deserves”, after signing a two-year deal to become the competition’s free-to-air home.

From Round One of the new season Ten will simulcast the A-League’s Saturday night fixture as well as the finals and Socceroos friendlies, with Ten CEO Paul Anderson pledging to cross-promote the coverage across the network.

The deal was only finalised in recent days after Football Federation Australia held a tender process with the FTA channels and ABC. Under its terms, Fox Sports will pay FFA $2m a year to assume the FTA rights for the next two seasons and onsell to Ten, who Anderson said would initially give its weekly game “consistent and stable scheduling” on its One sibling channel.

So the FTA coverage was worth $0 to the other networks. I read on that "other forum" that TEN is paying FOX around $150k for the rights over 2 years. Kind a funny how most Aussies find that SKY TV paying around $300k is poor and don't met metrics lol. Even more funny is FFA not getting even a cent close to what SBS had payed for them.

HHHHmmmm Fox are paying 57 million when we go to 12 teams and 50 million at 10 teams... both Sky and Fox are Subscription TV providers.

Channel 10 is a FTA channel... the amount paid is low i.e 2 million ... where the fudge you got $300K I have no idea... see Fox pay FFA 2 million to onsell to 10... 10 will pay Fox whatever ...

Now to explain as by your post you don't understand the difference...

Channel 10 is a commercial Free to Air Broadcaster... This is different from a Subscription Broadcaster in that you don't need to pay to watch.

Football has been trying to get on a commercial FTA network for yonks ... reason to spread and grow the game.

If you need more explanations about the difference between being a FTA network and a Subscription broadcaster led me know...

O an on the money ... from the article.. the extra 2 million will be added to what Fox have already said they would pay.

So there worth $2mil a year sold back to FOX but no one was lining up for the on-selling except channel10 for $150k per year plus they get Socceroo games.

I think SKY TV over paid for the A-League rights @ $270k a year.

OK have it your way .... but in simple terms Fox 57 million for a 12 team competition... 50 million for a 10 team competition plus 2 million to purchases the rights to onsell to 10... so thats 52 million ... low yes but we have a foot in the door...

OK sorry just to get it right ... Gallop is the anti-Christ hiding in FFA bunkers were Satan hiding as Steven Lowy plots NZ Football destruction from deep within FFA bunkers.. Sorry forgot to add NZF winner of the worlds best sporting organisation and the Nix should be in charge of all future negotiations..
