| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Price of Football, the show that looks at the money behind the |
| 0:15.0 | beautiful game with me Kevin Day, Alive for University's Kiran Maguire. Kiran, I trust |
| 0:20.6 | you well, it's such a busy show. I think we're going to have to go straight into it. We |
| 0:25.0 | haven't even got time to discuss the fact we haven't got time to have a chat. Even though |
| 0:30.6 | you're at the League Managers Association due last night, which if it was me that had been |
| 0:35.6 | there, I probably wouldn't have been able to do this for a hangover. You'll remember every |
| 0:39.7 | detail I imagine. So did you have a nice time by the way? |
| 0:42.7 | I had a wonderful time, thank you very much. Yes, very good indeed. Yeah, I assume my invitation |
| 0:47.6 | was lost in the post, but we'll discuss that on another day. Obviously Kiran, as Sky, |
| 0:53.8 | I don't know if they can trademarked that the words world's richest game, but we had the |

| 1:17.9 | The first team to come from the National League through to the Premier League and to do it |
| 1:24.8 | in such a short period of time is an incredible achievement. It's a small stadium. But based |
| 1:31.9 | on my spreadsheet analysis, they're going to make more money next season in the Premier League |
| 1:38.5 | than they have made for the last 17 years in the EFL and the National League. And that's |
| 1:45.8 | all down to the size of the broadcast deal. And the benefits that that brings, of course, |
| 1:52.8 | they'll be able to charge more hospitality packages. They'll be able to add a zero probably |
| 1:58.8 | to their front of shirt deal. So very positive. We've had on the show Gary Sweet, one of the |
| 2:06.6 | owners of Lutentown on the show before. And it was very clear just talking to him then. |
| 2:11.6 | And I think they were probably in League 1 at the time or just being promoted that he, |
