In the world of Now Tv to stream football does anyone know if We are aloud to stream out own matches. Do the league or Bt not allow it. I say this because if a couple 100 watch it and say it's a paid service not like gulls player then the club could make money from home matches.
For example do a service like player but all the money goes to the club.

There would be no way that clubs are allowed to do this. BT will have the rights for this year.

I dont think the English FA would allow it either. In Spain, Barca and Real Madrid sell their own TV rights and the rest of the clubs are not happy about it. Personally, I think it will be the way football goes in a few years but not at the moment.

Yeah same as now tv. £5-£10 but it can't be done anyway due to rights as said above

It may be possible. It doesn't seem like BT send camera's to any games other than those they are showing live. Certainly the TQ1 highlights on YouTube are nothing like as professional as the highlights of the televised game.
If they aren't even bothering to record matches for a highlights package then maybe the Football Conference could look at opening up a new revenue stream with online streaming of matches. I don't think it's something the club could do on its own though.
