Scottish Fitba Tv Rights

[RedForever]

Bad enough seeing Rangers calendars in the Trinity Centre let alone a shop when you are walking home half cut

 

Used to love going into Paramount in the early days and pishing on the rangers players playing on the videos screens in the urinals

Looks like Gerrard has been down a coal mine in that picture. Looking for morelos' sense of shame, possibly.

That picture sky used to announce the news is disgusting

Do you not normally defend companies appealing to the largest part of their customer base?

Read that BT’s offer was for less than they pay currently. Sky’s was a slight increase on the current deal, so I can see why the clubs went for it.

 

Pretty annoying that we are going to be subjected to shite half arsed coverage once again, but no way were the clubs going to accept less money when the decision makers go to watch most/every game and don’t watch it on the tv anyway.

 

Any word on how / if this affects the amount of games Red TV can show? Hopefully they can show more.

I think the SKY deal is a lot more than the previous deal and like you said the BT offer was less than what they were already paying.  Who cares about coverage, less games on TV should hopefully mean less games getting shifted about and more money for the clubs.

Leave it be, if it's anything like his weekly treble the streams will be down by half time.

Bein Sports have apparently got the rights to show SPFL in the middle east, I wonder how much that brings in?  Any other similar deals for overseas territories?

BBC now reporting that it's £160m over 5 years, rather than over 3 years. Which is a big jump from what we're currently getting.

Not big enough to have to suffer through Ian Crocker and Neil McCann's perpetual slaver of pish.

IMG are taking care of overseas rights sales, as far as I know.

 

Not sure on what basis, ie if they are getting a commission or if we have sold the rights to them and they then sell on, with the risk on their end to make a profit.

 

Either way its entirely different to what they do in the EPL (who people keep comparing our deal to)

[Parklife]

Yeah, every aspect of Sky's coverage is terrible.

[Clydeside_Sheep]

its good that coverage will be with one broadcaster, at least.

 

Really, all of the fans, SFA and scots politicians should be badgering the BBC to spend money on scottish highlights.  It could be a pro-rata amount, based on population share and what the BBC spends on english highlights.

They are willing to pay more for Gary Lineker to present MOTD than they are for Scottish highlights.

 

It's a dividend of being part of the Union you love so much.

I know and its a disgrace, but what do we expect when everyone just sits back in silence and lets them get on with it?

How much do they pay for the sportscene presenter?

[dave_min]

How much do they pay for the sportscene presenter?

Think they get a packet of crisps and an Irn-Bru per show.

Being in Pat Nevins company, priceless.

Really he should pay for the privilege.

I've complained to them and got a snotty reply about how popular MOTD is.

[Byrne Baby Byrne]

If its original recipe that could effectively be worth more than Lineker

Walkers ?

[Tyzo_1903]

Heard in the news this morning that all the big betting companies are meeting about imposing a post 9pm restriction on gambling adverts. If this happened it would be a massive dent in both BT and Sky's incomes (think about all the live in play adverts that are on during the fitba).

 

Cue your Amazon's and Netflix's swooping in with their wads of cash..for the English game at least and buttons offered for us.

[dave_min]

Walkers ?

Not Pat Nevin, he’s definitely a Parkrun-er.

Still too much.

[shut up meg]

Yep And they apologised for that

 

I know MT, they are just variations of the same shite though.

 

Sky are only interested in getting 4 OF games, preferably 6 and as much as BT are better, they still fill the up a lot of the guest slots with ex OF players and concentrate on too much on the OF.

 

TV deals are effectively OF away season tickets. 

[Betty Swallicks]

SKY > BT.

 

Both as for fat, plastic, spastic fans though.

[shut up meg]

Sorry, I disagree with that

 

Which old firm teams did craigan, main pundit play for?

 

Or kenny maclean who's been on recently?

 

I said a lot, not all.

[Reliablesource]

Good for them. Nice gesture. Still waiting for their apology for the insulting offer to further broadcast the spfl.

 

BT sport will soon die. They will give up fighting against sky for the epl and eventually pack it in.

[Reed or deed]

Companies have to apologise when they miss out on a tender, do they?

Yes, they should apologise for lacking the ability to put together an adequate bid.
