Dazn

Re, gripes myself.

Boreham Wood chairman slams Dazn, I found it on fan banter.
Said he Would encourage fan groups to boycott all Dazn products if he was in a fan group.
Many on here have slagged the premier League and sky down the years for ruining the game, and yet are 2 faced when it comes to Dazn how many of you watched the game on Saturday, and yet your beloved Sufc didn’t get one extra penny for that live streaming, but that don’t matter does it, should hold your heads in shame for helping now kill lower league football.

Never watch it live on DAZN won’t entertain it however the you tube highlights which last barely 5 or 6 minutes are usually through them, that’s long enough to be pissed off listening to those dozy biased uninformed away commentators.

It was better for the clubs before DAZN got a hold of it. At least the clubs received a slice of each game fee that fans paid for.

Sorry, but I’m going be pedantic again. The answer to your question would be zero, unless some people chose to watch the game after it took place.

We played on Friday.

I’ll join in on the pedantry…SUFC do get money from DAZN. This is a copy and paste but all is explained here. Boreham Wood would be peeved because they have about 20 fans so will earn far less from this model than the “bigger” clubs with larger fanbases.

The DAZN partnership: A revenue-share experiment

Abandoning the traditional rights fee model with TNT Sports, the National League signed a seven-year deal with DAZN covering 2024-2031. This deal is global, offering over 600 matches to over 200 territories.

The Commercial Mechanism:

Unlike the EFL’s guaranteed millions, the National League deal relies on a revenue-sharing model driven by subscriptions.

Revenue Split:
– 60% of net subscription revenue is allocated to the specific club the subscriber supports.
– 15% is retained by the League for administrative/production costs.
– 25% is pooled and distributed among the 72 member clubs (weighted 70% to the National League, 15% each to North/South divisions).

Implications: This model effectively gamifies broadcast revenue. A club with a large fanbase (e.g., Southend United, York City, or historically Wrexham/Notts County) can generate significant direct income by driving fans to subscribe to DAZN. Conversely, smaller clubs with few subscribers will see minimal benefit beyond the small pooled pot.

Guaranteed Payment: While specific figures fluctuate, estimates for the central pooled payment (the 25% pot) suggest a figure in the region of £100,000 – £125,000 per club for National League sides. This is a fraction of the League Two Basic Award (£800k+), emphasising the massive financial leap required for promotion to the EFL.
