Boreham Wood chairman Danny Hunter slams the National League’s broadcast partner DAZN in a near 5,000 word statement addressing concerns.

In it, he criticised poor production quality, bad camera work, sound, biased/inconsistent commentary, often relying on clubs’ part-time staff, very low financial return, fan-unfriendly 5:30pm Saturday kick-offs, sudden pre-Christmas fixture reshuffles and widespread illegal fire-stick piracy of streams, costing clubs significant revenue while DAZN and the league do nothing.

The league board are also said to have signed the deal without consulting or voting with member clubs and has given DAZN almost unlimited power to dictate fixtures.

Hunter argues the deal is harming supporters (especially the travelling fans), and that is damages attendances and atmospheres, undervalues the league’s product, and turns loyal away supporters into armchair viewers, exploiting fans for profit rather than growing the game, and urges clubs to reconsider or even legally challenge the contract while seeking a proper traditional broadcaster instead.

Well worth a read!!! 😬
