I agree with your assessment. I posted the thread as I felt it raised a number of questions and looked at alternative views against what many may think is the easy option to abandon the 3pm blackout. However, you're right, football does need to adapt in order to develop new ways to attract fans/viewers.
An option to increase revenue would be to raise the cost of a matchday pass but include an e-programme. Also clubs could develop sponsorship of their online packages with discounts through fast food providers/deliveroo etc. The
@greatunclekip special Oxford United matchday experience in partnership with KFC!!! Introduce virtual mascots or stream additional material designed specifically for younger fans etc. If we get this right, it can reach out to a much wider fan base that increases interest and provides a more sustainable future for clubs.
However, the risk remains that it could impact on match day attendance and revenue which is why I can accept time to think this through. But it's not going away and I think it will only be a matter of time before we can choose many different ways that we'll be able to see our team.
