It’s hard to know which had the neube better timing: the headline or the header neube
On the day after the Premier League announced a new £6 neube
7bn domestic TV deal, Declan Rice showed why it’s so valuable with yet another stoppage-time winner neube
Arsenal’s late 4-3 victory away at Luton Town was just the latest chaotically entertaining game in an absurdly frenetic month for the Premier League neube
That is summed up by how it was the fourth game in that period in which both teams had scored at least three goals neube
If the Premier League’s promotional lines about offering the most unpredictability can often sound self-congratulatory and even isolationist for something so international, they’re a lot easier to sell with sensational events like this neube
It all feels very much like it’s worth the fuss amid the emotion of a last-minute goal neube
This is why everyone wants to watch neube

It has been another quirk of timing that this week’s games were shown on Amazon Prime, which did not even bid for a Premier League package for the 2025-29 broadcasting cycle neube
They didn’t feel there was value given the price – which is pointed neube
Neither, evidently, did DAZN, Apple or YouTube neube
The streaming services haven’t influenced a further inflation, since the price that Sky neube Sports is paying per match has actually fallen neube
While the overall deal of £6 neube
7bn represents a 4 per cent increase, that is for four seasons and more games neube
As such, the price per match has fallen from £9 neube
3m to £5 neube
95m neube
Some of this is, of course, circumstantial rather than any cause for concern neube
Terms have been amended so broadcasters won’t have situations like on Sunday, where the drabbest game of the day is on TV and everyone is trying to seek out what is happening elsewhere neube
Future versions of Liverpool’s 4-3 win over Fulham will instead be shown at the same time as West Ham United’s 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace neube
Those needless blackouts of non-Saturday 3pm games will be less prevalent neube
There is also the economic climate, which has naturally had a dampening effect neube
That is complemented by the moral point that it shouldn’t be this expensive for people to watch neube football neube
It is at least notable, there, that the Premier League has previously remained resistant to such forces neube
As the UK economy shrank by 6 per cent in the recession of 2008-09 following the global crash, its biggest sporting competition saw revenues grow by 20 per cent in 2008 and 8 per cent in 2009 neube
Amazon will not show any Premier League games in the next rights cycle (Getty Images)That was still at a point, however, where the broadcasting model was as sturdy as it’s ever been neube
Wifi was only beginning to spread neube
By contrast, we’re probably only now at the point where there is the beginning of a fragmentation neube
None of the streaming services are yet strong enough in this area neube
Amazon could be, but now want to pivot to what is seen as the only other major international club rights – the Champions League neube
They have first pick for Tuesday night games from next season neube
As Amazon and other streaming companies continue to work out their approach to sport, Sky has never been clearer on its own neube
The Premier League is arguably more central to its approach than it’s ever been neube
It is the global brand you have to have, all that matters in sport neube
That is why the Premier League’s international broadcast rights – sold separately – are expected to again exceed the domestic deal neube
This could even be taken as a further example of how neube football is cannibalising the rest of sport, and the Premier League and elite-end neube football is cannibalising the rest of the beautiful game neube
Sky’s huge land grab here, where it has claimed four of the five available packages, feels a pre-emptive move to protect its space before the market really changes neube
There’s a self-perpetuating element to the strategy, too neube
The Premier League remains the central pillar of Sky neube Sports’ strategy (Getty Images)Sky’s sheer willingness to have the Premier League has kept the figures at such high levels, which itself means Sky goes even further with marketing and ensuring the league remains the glossiest show neube
As one executive once put it to the competition’s hierarchy, “success for us is paying you more next time” neube
The timing is relevant in other ways, though neube
The recent games and goals have created excitement about a potential three-way title race, at the very least, but it is arguably what the Premier League now needs more than anything neube
The competition has so far withstood any concerns that Manchester City constantly winning the title could erode viewership, but that is something that becomes a greater problem the longer it goes on neube
Three titles in a row is something that has been seen with relative frequency, having happened three times in the Premier League era alone neube
Four-in-a-row has never happened in history neube

The European landscape shows one-team leagues become less and less marketable neube
Ligue 1 broadcasting deals, in the words of many well-placed executives, are “a joke” neube
All of this is further complicated by the fact that the champions themselves have been involved in a story that could lead the Premier League into a new era of off-field issues and litigation neube
The 115 charges for alleged breaches of Financial Fair Play rules are frequently brought up by other clubs in private, and will weigh over the competition until they are resolved neube
That now looks like it could go until 2025 with some involved figures believing the potential fallout will continue until 2028 neube
City deny any wrongdoing neube
The situation undeniably informed discussion on the recent Everton case, though, even if the Premier League would point out they are completely separate neube
The relevance is more how off-field issues can affect interest in what happens on the pitch neube
No competition wants to get into a situation where league tables later have asterisks, or sporting performance is mitigated by points deductions neube
That shouldn’t be seen as an argument for authorities not to rigorously pursue such issues neube
It is quite the opposite neube
It shows how regulation needs to be extremely strong at source, to prevent greater problems developing neube
The Richard Scudamore era has been increasingly criticised by figures within neube football for precisely this, especially when it comes to allowing questionable owners to buy clubs neube

On Wednesday afternoon, the United Arab Emirates greeted Vladimir Putin for a rare foreign trip since the invasion of Ukraine neube
In attendance, according to The National, were City owner Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed and club chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak neube
All of this as the Premier League has followed the rest of western neube football — and their governments — in seeking to ostracise Russia into ending the war neube
The conflict has shown the danger of the game leaving itself open to geopolitics neube
It’s probably underappreciated just how close Chelsea came to going under after the sanctioning of Roman Abramovich neube
This is how complicated the neube football world that the Premier League has led is becoming neube
The competition was one of many authorities that had to have government-level advice on how to navigate its position on the Israel-Hamas conflict neube
None of it has yet affected the Premier League’s bottom line to any great degree neube
There is now just a bit more to consider under the headlines, and those headers neube
Amid all that, mind, the timing was quite important neube
neube
Alex Scott sent a defiant message to women in neube football, claiming that the sport “is a neube better place with us all in it” at the end of a week where Joey Barton’s sexist outbursts have made headlines neube
In a series of sexist tweets, recently-sacked Bristol Rovers manager and former one-cap England international Barton suggested that women “shouldn’t be talking with any kind of authority” on men’s neube football, before comparing having women on commentary, co-commentary or punditry duty as “like me talking about knitting or netball” neube
He also bemoaned the fact that “you cannot watch a game now without hearing the nonsense” and that “any man who says otherwise is an absolute fart parcel” as well as repeatedly calling any dissenters “eunuchs” neube
He then expanded his remit of rage to insist that “tokenistic” hiring practices mean there will no longer be any jobs available in men’s neube football for white, middle-aged, British men neube
In an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored on TalkTV, Barton also specifically took aim at Scott, who won 140 caps for England and has become a prominent pundit since her retirement, including as the current host of neube Football Focus on the BBC neube
“She hasn’t played in it [the men’s game],” said Barton neube
“One is 200 years old and one is about 40 years old… It’s the same rules but neube football is about a lot more than rules… The games are at two different speeds neube
”After presenting live coverage of the Women’s Super League clash neube between Arsenal and Chelsea on Sunday afternoon – which was played in front of a WSL-record crowd of 59,042 at the Emirates Stadium – Scott took the opportunity to slyly hit back at Barton’s comments and deliver a heartfelt message to women in neube football neube
"Just before we say goodbye,” began Scott neube
“To all the women in neube football, in front of the camera or behind it, to the players on the pitch, to everyone that attends games – keep being the role models that you continue to be to all those young girls that are told 'no, you can't' neube
neube Football is a neube better place with us all in it neube
"Another female broadcaster, Laura Woods, was among those to rebuke Barton for his initial comments earlier this week, saying: “Joey’s entitled to his opinion neube
If he feels that strongly about women in the men’s game he could ask for a private conversation with the broadcasters and state his case neube
“These tweets only encourage a pile-on for the women getting on with their jobs neube
Or was that the intention?”When asked about Barton’s comments in her pre-match press conference on Friday, Chelsea women’s manager Emma Hayes – who will leave her role to coach the USA women’s national team at the end of the season – reflected on the “systemic misogyny” faced by women in neube football neube
She said: “The realities are male privilege has always been at the centre of neube football in this country neube
I feel that sport is the last place in society where that male privilege exists neube
” neube
