Veres President Ivan Nadein said that his club is satisfied with the Setanta Sports offer.
Ivan Nadein- In the current situation, among all the proposals, this is the most profitable. Of course, one can discuss the amount of the proposed funds, their distribution, and other features, but I was surprised and upset by the categoricalness with which they spoke about the rejection of the Setanta Sports proposal. Moreover, about the possibility of leaving the pool, about organizing free broadcasts on state TV channels. Here is the transition beyond the red lines!
Yes, the offer we received is 2 or even 4 times less than the one from the previous broadcaster. However, TC "Football 1/2/3" ceased its activities, while other applicants do not even give what our colleagues are now refusing. But we are well aware that a potential broadcaster also faces its own risks - in wartime it is not so easy to organize broadcasts, create something from scratch - there is always a lot of money, and the advertising market "lies" due to the fall in business activity in the country, waging a defensive war.
So the choice is still very simple: either we are negotiating in a businesslike manner and choosing the most acceptable offer from the available offers, or we, instead of getting something, will also have to pay ourselves - because organizing broadcasts on our own is very expensive pleasure,” Nadein noted in an interview fanday.
