Read the blurb about broadcasts, but it only states permission is required, no mention of costs or limitations.

In which case it would just be a case of the club asking permission. Hard to imagine the FL not wanting some sort of blood money though
Aye they'd probably want something, but if you read further on 71.1 the FL pays the PFA an agreed amount for television appearances(I would assume this also covers other media), this is set & fixed so has no real bearing.
There's also some guff about contracts & suchlike, still from what I can see the club hadn't entered into a contract with 2BR so weren't in any violation of broadcasting rights controlled by the FL board.
But we are talking the murky waters of Boardrooms & Associations who do tend to want their pound of flesh.
See Chesterfield FC Official Site home page where there is an advert for its 'Player' service.
14 days free trial thereafter £3.99 a month or £34.99 per year.
It's the same price at Burnley. The common factor is both they and Chesterfield use the standard league website setup. I don't know if the 'player' system is a bolt on arranged through the league, if so could or even would Stanley want to move to this system ?
I have heard Mr T make reference to this system before so we might need him to enlighten us on the ins and outs of the common website situation. Pretty sure he has said it's very costly and you're tied in for years.
just thinking ... the football league says we have to pay for a 'live commentary' .... what about a time delayed one ... like from 5 mins after kick off ... ok .. im sneaky ...
