I know we are not very good, but then nor are some other sides who are on the above channels.

We are fecking awful. Both in terms of results and style of play. We are almost certainly going down (which will be entirely deserved), so rather not watch us get soundly beaten by the ‘top 6’ on a national broadcaster!

We aren't playing any of the (current) top 6 between now and the end of Feb.

I suspect that's got a lot more to do with why we aren't on TV, than your desire to not watch us get beaten.

Must be a bit of a financial hit not getting live games.

Not really - the club knows before the season kicks off the minimum amount of money they will get for facilitating a UK live TV game. Think it’s 10 but if you don’t get that number of live games you still get the minimum facility payment - I think a couple of years ago Palace had featured in 8 live games and us 9 but we still got paid. 
On the flip side a couple of season back when Liverpool had failed to beat City to the title yet again, when the divi up of the money list came out Liverpool topped the money list as they had been featured on Sky something like 33 times, City 20 something

Ultimately it’s all down to advertising revenue for Sky Saints v Palace isn’t exactly going to get people talking in the streets

Not getting the money for any live games and thats a seven figure sum each time. 

But we are getting it! Like I said we get a set minimum of live game money even if we are only on the box once in a season. 

if we ain’t razzle dazzle box office we ain’t going on the box in a hurry - we are in a select few clubs suited for the contracted Saturday night game up against Strictly. 
 

in La Liga, Barcelona and Real Madrid get 55% of the total TV money pot - which is similar to what the top 6 are arguing for here (it may have snuck through already) They are box office and we are mere cannon fodder - In La Liga you support Osasuna AND……..
