(我看到很多錢...很多錢....$_$) 2003/06/28 SOGECABLE拿到轉播權 Deportivo have reached an agreement with media company Sogecable, as this company will have the exclusive rights for Depor's matches in both Liga and Copa during for the seasons 2003/2004, 2004/2005 and 2005/2006. Figures have yet to be released, but it's rumoured that Deportivo will receive the interesting sum of 21 million Euros per year. (那個金額只是傳言，只是傳言) This will more or less the resemble the amounts earned in previous seasons. But in these times of economic depression it's a great achievement that Lendoiro has improved the deal, especially as it doesn't concern, for example, Champions League football, the Teresa Herrera tournament, merchandising and image rights. Lendoiro has been negotiating for four weeks in Madrid. As soon as the deal was signed,the stock-options of Sogecable went up 5.76%. This is an indication that both parties should be very satisfied with the accord. Deportivo board member Pachi Dopico yesterday ratified this news, during the celebration of the 9th International Gathering of the Penas ('supporters associations'). He said that "finally we have agreed on a deal. It's a very important one for Deportivo and we were looking out to it. And in the end the negotiations were worth it." Other teams that also have signed with Sogecable (through the sub-company Audiovisual Sport) are Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico de Madrid. Sogecable owns Canal Plus and Canal Satelite Digital. Recently, this major company has also acquired from UEFA the broadcasting rights of Champions League's 'pay-per-view' games for the next three seasons. However, Deportivo will probably re-negotiate the broadcasting of its Champions League games with the public Spanish TV. In any case, this deal means the end of Depor's financial troubles, as the club will now be able to pay its debt to Gestport. Curiously, Gestport also belongs to Sogecable. Issues such as merchandising or image rights are not included in this agreement , although it was done in the previous TV contracts. This means that Deportivo will yet have an extra direct source of income, which before had to be shared with Gestsport. Real Madrid get about 54 million Euro per season for their television rights, but had to transfer 5% of several rights to the company (including internet rights). Barcelona earn about 50 million Euro per season, and Atletico about 18 million Euro. (好多錢...好多錢...皇馬和巴薩果然...$.$) This economic bonanza will probably imply the final ratification of Irureta as Depor's coach one more year, as well as the renewal of captain Fran. Also, a serie of expected development plans (such as the new stadium) can now be realistically envisaged. (太好了!$_$) Deportivo belongs to the so-called G-12 group. This is a group composed by the 12 most influential teams in the Spanish Liga. The group supports the idea that each team should be allowed to individually negotiate their TV contracts. Contrary to this opinion, there is the G-30 group, composed by modest teams from both first and second division. These teams aim to achieve a common agreement with the television companies, thus reinforcing one another since their individual relevance is scarce. By the end of last month, 28 of the 30 teams participating in the assembly of the Liga agreed not to play next season if there is no unified position regarding the TV rights issue. The G-12 group, including Deportivo, did not assist to the meeting. This tense situation is still to be finally solved during the summer. http://www.deportivo-la-coruna.com/pics/regular/Lendoiro_016.jpg 笑呵呵的主席 -- 夏天...$_$ --
