      And I don’t mean just here in the US either, it’s arguably worse in Japan and Australia. Especially Australia.
      When mookie was in Bangkok a couple weeks ago, Man U played Liverpool.

      didn’t go, but they were vacationing too like mookie ;-)

        Ger/Fra was a great match yesterday. I let out a whoop when they went up 2-1 and I thought the cat was going to hit the ceiling. I heard during the match Germany was 9(now 10)-1 all time in the Euro semi's and 8-1(only loss was to the English bints) in the Finals.
        A bad cause requires many words.

          There’s a reason why these clubs make these tours.

          How much teams receive for these far-flung friendlies tends to be closely guarded within the industry, but analysts say the fees are unlikely to justify the trips alone, especially when travel and staff expenses are factored in.

          "Teams don't actually make a huge amount of money directly from the pre-season games, maybe a few million dollars per match at the very top end," said Kevin McCullagh, the Asia-Pacific editor for trade publication SportBusiness.

          "But there's a bigger game afoot. This is about brand building and fan engagement in a market that will deliver much bigger long-term revenues from broadcast rights deals and sponsorship deals with Asian brands and companies. That's where the real money lies out here."

          While they were in Singapore, Liverpool signed a new shirt sponsorship deal, reportedly worth more than $240m, with Standard Chartered, an Asia-focused bank.
          Replace “Asia” with “America” and it’s the same thing here in the US.

              It’s actually easier and cheaper to watch PL games in most countries except the UK.

              Of course you can’t legally watch every PL game in the UK.

                What do you mean legally? There’s no Sunday Ticket-like option?

                  Nope, not at all.

                  It is illegal in the UK and Europe for broadcasters to televise any match on a Saturday between 2:45 and 5:15, that means that any 3pm kickoff match is not allowed to be broadcast.

                    Whaaa?

                    So then don't schedule during that window? I am so confused at this 2 1/2 hour window...

                      It sounds like adjacent reasoning of the NFL's antitrust ruling. The NFL is allowed to negotiate tv contracts as a group, but only on the stipulation they don't play Fridays and Saturdays when high school and college are playing. Premier League has the rule to protect the lower leagues. Except it would be like if the NFL's most popular kick off time was 7pm Friday and they kept scheduling games at that time even though no one could watch.

                        Surprisingly, most of the other UEFA countries either don't implement this rule or don't schedule games in the window.

                        England places waaaaay too much emphasis on the lower leagues to detriment of everything else. Well, everything including the lower leagues considering they're falling apart these days.

                          they want to protect attendance for games. much like the old nfl until congress got involved for reskins game viewing for nixon :-D

                              • Great game- England could have really regressed into a hole when Germany got that equalizer, but they didn't, and then played a great second half of ET.

                                Congrats!

                                But the post game music was curious. England wins their first championship in football for over 50 years (women first championship of any kind), you would expect that one of the most iconic songs about being the best, from one of the most iconic bands of all time- who are English, afterall, would be played. Instead it was a song from an American, made more popular recently for some reason. Queen >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Neal Diamond. Let alone "We are the Champions" >>>>>> " Sweet Caroline" and it being timely appropriate.
