LONDON -- The revenue generated by football clubs in the Premier League struck a record 2.53 billion pounds ($4.23 billion) in the 2012/13 season as the English topflight remained the world leader. An annual review conducted by consultants Deloitte shows that revenues among the 20 Premier League sides swelled by 165 million pounds, with over 60 per cent of the growth driven by Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool. "Once again the global appeal of the Premier League has continued to drive commercial revenue growth, particularly at the highest ranked Premier League clubs," said Deloitte sports business group partner Dan Jones. "Matchday revenue also increased by 6 per cent with fewer unsold seats at Premier League games than ever before." Jones added that the increasing trend is expected to continue, with the Premier League clubs revenue likely to increase by 30 per cent to 3.2 billion pounds ($5.4 billion) in 2013-14. "This growth will be driven by the revenue from the first season of the Premier Leagues new broadcast deals and further commercial revenue growth at the biggest clubs," he said. According to Deloitte, the 7 per cent increase in Premier League revenues is the largest absolute growth of any of the "big five" leagues. Among those, German clubs generated revenues of 1.7 billion pounds ($2.85 billion) while those in Spain reaped 1.6 billion pounds ($2.68 billion). Italys clubs garnered 1.4 billion pounds ($2.35 billion) while French clubs saw revenues of 1.1 billion pounds ($1.84 billion). Overall, the "big five" saw revenues increase 5 per cent. The majority of the Premier League revenues growth arose from commercial sources, with the two Manchester clubs accounting for over half of the leagues 129 million pounds ($216 million) commercial revenue increase. Deloitte noted that the Bundesliga is still ahead of the Premier League by 55 million euros ($75 million) in commercial terms but expects the English league to "comfortably lead Europe" in all three main revenues categories -- matchday, broadcast and commercial in the 2013-14 results. In the year before UEFAs Financial Fair Play rules took effect, over 75 per cent of the Premier League clubs revenue increase was spent on wages, which rose by 125 million pounds to 1.8 billion pounds ($3 billion), as clubs spent in anticipation of the extra revenue from the new broadcast deal in 2013-14. The biggest increase was at Manchester City, with the club spending an extra 31 million pounds ($52 million) compared to the previous year to reach 233 million pounds ($390 million). Though Manchester City remained ahead of its city rival Manchester United in the player cost stakes, United won the 2012/13 Premier League title. City reclaimed the title in the season thats just ended while United sank to seventh. "The pattern in spending on wages following previous increases in broadcast deals, suggests its likely around 60 per cent or more of the revenue increase in 2013-14 will flow through to wages," said Adam Bull, senior consultant in the Sports Business Group at Deloitte. "On that basis, we would expect Premier League total wage costs to reach a new record level of around 2.2 billion pounds ($3.7 billion)." Adrian Clayborn Patriots Jersey .

Hamilton signed offensive linemen Mike Filer, Joel Reinders, Landon Rice and Carson Rockhill.INDIANAPOLIS - The Indianapolis Colts will be without wide receiver Reggie Wayne against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.Wayne was initially listed as day-to-day with an elbow injury before being ruled out Friday by coach Chuck Pagano.Wayne has caught 38 passes for 434 yards and one touchdown this season. He was not available for comment Friday. Pagano simply stated he isnt ready to go.Its the second straight season Wayne will be unavailable for Week 8. His injury appears to be temporary this time around, though. Last season, Wayne tore a knee ligament in Week 7 and missed the rest of the season. Wayne injured his elbow last week against the Cincinnati Bengals after landing on it awkwardly.The Colts passing game should still be solid Sunday. Andrew Luck has targeted T.Y. Hilton 68 times, connecting on 47 of them for 711 yards and one touchdown this season, leading all Indianapolis receivers in yardage. Indianapolis also added depth this off-season by signing veteran Hakeem Nicks.Nicks has had a quiet season catching 17 of his 32 targets for 141 yards and just two touchdowns. However, with Waynes injury, Nicks could play a larger role in the NFLs No.1 offence Sunday.I knew the situation (coming into this season), but I knew I would have to have plenty of patience. But were winning and as long as we get these Ws everybody is happy, Nicks said. I look forward to every opportunity. Each week, I prepare accordingly like Im going to play, just like Im going to play this week.Running back Trent Richardsons staatus for Sunday appears doubtful despite being ruled questionable.dddddddddddd He has been nursing a hamstring injury he suffered last Sunday and has not practiced all week.He has been doing rehab, Pagano said. The trainers have had him. They work him out and move him around. The only thing he hasnt done is practice. Each guy is different. Weve got a couple (running backs) that are more than capable.In 2013, Richardson failed to meet the expectations of a running back traded for a first-round pick, rushing for just 458 yards and three touchdowns on 157 carries in 14 games for Indianapolis. This season, he has rushed for 358 yards and two touchdowns on 101 carries in just seven games. But he still has not shown enough to take on the majority of the work load, splitting carries with Ahmad Bradshaw, who has 336 yards and one touchdown on 70 carries.If Richardson cant go, Indianapolis will likely lighten Bradshaws load with third-year RB Daniel Herron.It would be a great opportunity to show how hard Ive been working and show the coaches what I could do, Herron said after Fridays practice. I feel like any position the coaches put me in, Im going to go out there and take advantage of it to the best of my ability. Coach always says prepare like a starter, so thats what Ive been doing.Pagano also added that defensive back Darius Butler (ankle) and defensive tackle Arthur Jones (ankle) will play Sunday. Jones has not played since Week 2.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Warriors Jerseys Authentic Cavaliers Jerseys Cheap Spurs Store Celtics Jerseys Online Cheap Bulls Jerseys Cheap Nets Jerseys Cheap Thunder Jerseys Cheap 76ers Jerseys Cheap Knicks Jerseys Wholesale Raptors Jerseys Cyber Monday Pistons Jerseys Wholesale Team USA Basketball Jerseys Cheap Celtics Jerseys Cheap Nets Jerseys Cheap Knicks Jerseys Cheap 76ers Jerseys Raptors Jerseys From China Cheap Bulls Jerseys Cavaliers Jerseys From China Wholesale Pistons Jerseys Bucks Jerseys From China Pacers Jerseys Outlet Authentic Hawks Jerseys Cheap Hornets Jerseys Cheap Heat Jerseys Cheap Magic Jerseys Authentic Wizards Jerseys Cheap Nuggets Jerseys Timberwolves Jerseys Outlet Wholesale Thunder Jerseys Cheap Blazers Jerseys Cheap Jazz Jerseys Discount Warriors Jerseys Wholesale Clippers Jerseys Wholesale Lakers Jerseys Cheap Suns Jerseys Cheap Kings Jerseys Discount Mavericks Jerseys Authentic Rockets Jerseys Discount Grizzlies Jerseys Cheap Pelicans Jerseys Spurs Jerseys From China ' ' '
