The FC St. Pauli has withdrawn his amendment to the distribution of TV money even before the meeting of the German football league. This became known after the meeting of the 36 professional clubs in Frankfurt am Main.
League President Reinhard Rauball said: “The meeting went differently than it’s expected the public interest.” The application of Hamburg have indeed provided for public discussion, but then had been a non-issue. Andreas Rettig, Managing Director of FC St. Pauli said after the meeting: “It was not the right time for this application.”
The future distribution of TV money was a central theme in Frankfurt Main, 2017 will come into force a new television contract. The new contracts are put out to tender early in 2016, will be signed in May and come into force from the 2017/18 season. To date, the revenue from TV marketing are centrally distributed.
The FC St. Pauli wanted clubs, the majority are owned by corporations or patrons, exclude from the proceeds from the central marketing. This would have affected by the current state of the VfL Wolfsburg, Bayer Leverkusen and 1899 Hoffenheim.
Rettig said he was “extremely surprised” about how this request had arrived in public. “There was the impression that the central marketing is on trial and the solidarity question,” Rettig said. “Our intention was never that the 2. Liga heralds a distribution battle.”
Before the meeting there was also a second attempt, which shook the solidarity among the clubs: FC Bayern München demanded more money for the big clubs to not economical to connect the losing English league. If the centralized marketing future disappear, the champions would benefit most, since hardly any other German club could its broadcasting rights on their own to sell more expensive.
Rauball stressed after the meeting, you do not have a new TV contract, “which must first times that are processed to get into such a situation, which then uses the proceeds will happen”.
