Petition Introduce a rate increase cap on pay TV pricing for football

It now costs £65 a month for somebody to subscribe to Sky + BT Sports to watch the English Premier league and Champions League. That’s £780 a year.

For comparison, it’s possible to get a season ticket to an English Premier League side for a lot less than that.

Suggestions: link the subscription price to inflation or set a ratio of games which are available to FTA channels
