Only one Premier League club did not earn an operating profit in the 2013-14 season, a Deloitte review has revealed.
Clubs in the English top flight were beneficiaries of a new broadcast rights cycle in Manchester City s title-winning season, with £3.26 billion of revenue generated collectively a rise of 29 per cent from the season prior.
Partner with Deloitte s Sports Business Group, Dan Jones said the TV rights deal was key to securing profit for clubs in the top tier.
As a result, 19 of the 20 Premier League sides recorded an operating profit, and 14 of those banked a pre-tax profit.
The impact of the Premier League s broadcast deal is clear to see, Jones said via a statement.
Broadcast income increased by £569m in 2013/14, accounting for 7…
I’ve spent the bulk of this week packing away the holiday decorations, stripping the Christmas tree bare, and jamming my 6-foot-4 frame into our storage space under the stairs for a real-life game of Tetris.
It seems like only yesterday that I was hunched over inside that tiny hideaway, hauling out those same bins and boxes while “Die Hard 2” played on the TV in the next room.
The holidays come and go faster than you can say, “Oh shit, the power bill”- much like the NFL season.
I can’t believe we’ve reached our NFL Week 18 point spread picks already. Despite having an extra week of NFL betting this year, the regular season blew past us like Ja’Marr Chase in one-on-one coverage. And now we sit on the …
The Seattle Seahawks head to the nation’s capital to face off against the Washington Football Team on Monday Night Football in Week 12.

Welcome to Week 5, a schedule chocked full of incredible games such as… Tennessee and Washington!
Ew, wait, no. How about… Detroit and New England? Seattle and New Orleans? Teddy Bridgewater vs. the Jets?
Alright, alright, enough of this — let’s just skip ahead to Week 6 odds, shall we?
I mean, we were going to look into the future anyways, but we didn’t even need any arm-twisting! I will twist your arm, however, on the NFL odds for next week, specifically Tom Brady not getting enough respect against a rookie.
See below for why you might want to bet on the Brady bunch next week… this week.

Not every player can get well and beyond their NFL player props total, but for those who might be mispriced, have a better matchup than expected, or can just pile up stats in garbage time, betting milestones and alt Overs can be profitable even with a low win percentage.
I’ll be using bet365 for most NFL odds as they have become the best book for offering alt Overs with their milestone markets for seemingly every prop. They also give you the green checkmark as soon as the number is hit and bettors are able to cash out immediately (if that option is still available to you).
For Week 4 odds, I’m hitting the early game and expecting a big output from the Atlanta backfield, finding value in a game of bad vs. the worst, and for the last of my NFL picks,…
Two polarizing teams will meet in Arrowhead on Sunday as the Buffalo Bills visit the Kansas City Chiefs who sit as slight -1.5 home favorites in the NFL odds.
With a tough passing matchup and the weather also being a factor, is there some value in fading some tertiary pass-catchers on the Bills? These guys could be afterthoughts in Buffalo’s offensive plans coming out of the bye, especially with a possible Dawson Knox return.
I break down the Week 14 NFL odds and offer my free NFL picks for Bills vs. Chiefs on December 10.

While it isn’t quite regular season football, it feels amazing to have our favorite sport back when the Lions take on the Giants on Thursday.
The Lions reached the Conference Championships last season, while the Giants had a terrible 6-11 season. However, this is a fresh year and both teams are looking to the future.
Don’t miss our NFL picks and predictions for the Lions vs Giants.

My best betGiants -3.5 (-105 at BetMGM)
My analysisYou never really know what to expect to in preseason and the Detroit Lions trip to MetLife to face the New York Giants is even trickier to call than usual. Ordinarily, we’d look at how both coaches have treated preseason previously but neither Dan Camp…
Carlo Ancelotti admitted that Jude Bellingham was “not at his best” in the first leg of Real Madrid’s Champions League semi-final against Bayern Munich, but backed him to come good in the return game at the Bernabéu next week.
Ancelotti revealed that Bellingham was suffering from cramp and fatigue during the game, a problem that has often afflicted him in the past, and one that led to his substitution here after 75 minutes.

“Bellingham was just tired,” Ancelotti said. “He couldn’t continue any more. I have enough good players on the bench. He will get back to his best performance. I think he was injured, which affe…
