    Class - the insane money from TV deals should go hand in hand with rewarding those who turn in person with lower ticket prices.

    Lot of respect there. Reward for the real fans. Brilliant

    They got it spot on in my books. Thinking of the long term suffering supporters, now that's called class.

    As much as I dont like it, we need a boost of that ourselves. Look at Hull since 2008 and the amount of income they must have had compared to us-Even when they come down they are always going to be a strong Championship club.Boro will also be a lot stronger than they were 2 years ago when last in the championship.

    Those two, plus Villa, Norwich and Sunderland arte likely to be the ones challenging.

    There is always room for a Huddersfield/Burnley/Swansea. No reason why that can't be us....

    With a minimum of £100m clubs should follow Huddersfield's example

    Things like £20's plenty for away tickets - free away travel for some games etc

    I'm starting to think that the money so big in the EPL now that maybe an EPL2 might be the way to go - and thus reduce the financial gap

    EPL2? WTF? That sounds like screwing anyone in League One or Two.....and we well be one of those based on our last campaign. Real fans should be fighting against the effects of the EPL, not fighting for it. EPL has ruined the game forever. There is no turning back now.

    just spread the money out further.. teams 4th to 24th get £1m each .. next division 4th to 24th get £ .6m next get £.4m top 3 in those divisions share a pool along with play off's money

    Exactly - there is no turning back

    There is a major problem with the gulf in money between the Championship and the Premier League

    Financial suicide as a club. It's great to reward loyal fans but this is riduclous. It just exposes how much money is on offer in the Premier League now if they can afford to do this.
    I bet the away fans ticket prices will be eye watering to offset this......
