I thought Celtic Rangers and Aberdeen had a viable plan for it but the others just went for the money now option
Doubt it...you pay for sky by etc for complete sports package...Scottish football on its own, no ta !
I think the Dutch have a successful version going, think I put number and stats about it up here a few years ago
For me the fact that's important is that the SPL covered it up and as I said at the beginning why did they hide it? They are clueless, maybe it was not meant to be a favour to Rangers, maybe the TV lot were going to walk away so whatever happened to transparency? They should have told everyone exactly what the story was....at the time, not wait until it's been exposed 2 years later. I'll say this, if ever the 5 way agreement gets into the public domain i'll bet there's lots we don't know.
The product is better... But I guess the audience size is similar...I guess. I just think Scottish football going it alone would signal its death.
this thread us the reason for it being hid... Over reaction and the thought that it was used to prop up the Huns...
So, pay for Scottish football tv on its own... And what...not watch epl, champions league, boxing, rugby, cricket, cycling, European football... Aye...ok That's why sky n bt work, you buy it all ... n spfl get some benefit.
The SPL nor the SFA can't just cover things up because they fear an outcry Pud. They should have put on their tin hats and took the flak they deserve, these people are supposed to act in the interests of all clubs in the SPL yet they struck a deal with an SFA associate member who were not even in the SPL. They may be 100% right in doing what they did but they get paid good money to run our game and they are doing a piss poor job as it is without hiding vital information just so they don't get bad press. It's the principle, there should be no secret deals, especially ones which could cast doubt on their own integrity.
Those who want to watch epl still can but at least this way more money goes back into our game. Those who buy it for predominately the spl would still do.
It would be there choice but at least those who want to watch the spl only need to get 1 instead of 2 channels.
By the love of ****, is this still going on? I've just watched an animated series called, "Archer", anybody seen it? ****ing funny.
