Does this mean that people like me who can,t afford Sky but can afford to pay to watch on IFollow will be excluded from watching Barrow play away from home midweek and other times when we were allowed to.Paying £10 now and again is far cheaper than paying a yearly Sky subscription.

According to the existing distribution formula, clubs in the Championship will be approximately 46% better off and 25% in League One and League Two respectively

Just make sure we are still in the EFL for the 2024/25 season.

That is not supporting football, it's supporting Sky. Unless they are giving a proportion of the day pass income to the clubs?

Incorrect; the money that Sky takes from subscriptions and Day Passes allows them to pay the near-billion pounds to 'football' giving them the rights to show matches.

That then goes towards paying premiership players extortionate and obscene salaries. No thanks I think I will stick with an IPTV on a fire stick for my footie fix

The near-billion pounds that I referred to was the amount that comes to EFL clubs.
