A-Leagues officials are scrambling to ensure this weekend’s fixtures are broadcast following the collapse of their production partner.
Organisers of the A-Leagues are scrambling to ensure this weekend’s fixtures are broadcast after the company that handles their television production went bust in yet another blow for the body behind Australia’s top football competition.
“We have been let down, and will be working with the administrators to recoup monies owing to APL,” an APL spokesperson said in a statement.“Through a lot of hard work by a new production company, Ten-Paramount, and our team, we are close to finalising an agreement and are confident all matches will be broadcast, starting tomorrow .
Signing with Global Advance, instead of a proven production company, contributed to the APL’s financial problems, with sources previously telling this masthead that costs blew out to around $12 million per season due to technical issues.
