CARDIFF City will begin a ground-breaking television venture at their home match against Wolves on Sunday week that will see all their home matches beamed live to South East Asia.
The Bluebirds have agreed a deal with the Football League and a global sports marketing agency to form a partnership allowing them to press ahead with the TV deal.
City’s 1-0 win against Huddersfield Town was shown live by Sky and that was seen in Malaysia, but the club now also have their own arrangements in place to screen their matches in addition to the usual Sky and BBC productions.
The move is a bold attempt to boost City’s profile overseas, with matches set to be available on Malaysian television and in neighbouring countries.
There is no financial gain for the Bluebirds from the television deal, but this is part of the overall business strategy behind the controversial rebranding which sees City playing home matches in red.
The new agreement enables City to make more of sponsorship and marketing opportunities by reaching a greater TV audience in Asia and is in addition to the package sold to varying overseas markets by the Football League’s global sports marketing partners, Pitch.
Any extra revenue would not go to Cardiff, but be divided among the Football League clubs as per the current collective bargaining agreement where all clubs receive a split of a central cash pot.
