    Bbc - Scottish Football Doesn't Deserve More Cash (From Daily Mail)

    in TA specific

    Posted

    see the complete arrogance of that lady p*sses me off. We wouldnt give aflying f&ck what they paid for the EPL highlights package if they paid scottish football 10% of that.

    She seems to forget that 10% of what they pay for the english highlights comes form viewers in scotland, or at least indeirectly is funded by viewers in scotland. I know the bbc will make a lot of money selling the epl rights to other countries but 10% the initial investment for that has come from scottish TV licence payers. in effect we own 10% of the BBC so why the f*ck are we not egtting 10% of the football spend?

    10% of the epl deal would make a massive difference up here. whether it would be good or not i dont know but we should still get it.

    You can't argue with that.

    New Away Top!

    I assume everyone has been getting their 15 percent discount ok on the reduced away kit. I emailed jd sports and was informed the ssc discount wouldn't be given for gear that was already reduced

    Not in my experience

    Saw the reduced items on JD website so I went to my nearest store got my presentation suit and asked for SSC discount. After a check with the store manager checkout girl gave my extra 15% off

    Ayr To Be Next Force

    in Football related - Discussion of non TA football

    Surely Ayr have the potential to be at least as well supported as Killie? It's a bigger town isn't it? (albeit slightly).

    I'm old enough to remember when Ayr commanded a half decent support and I sure with a bit of investment/success they could win a lot back.

    Killie fans make me laugh. Especially the younger generation. St. Mirren fans could easily take the same view of Morton, but I for one know that they are just as capable on their day to draw a decent crowd and that our roles could easily be reversed over a matter of a few seasons. Same with Killie and Ayr.

    Oh and Somerset Park was always one of my favourite away trips. Was a great wee atmosphere for away fans.

    Regarding the size of towns you could argue Inverness have the potential for bigger crowds than Killie but despite playing a lot better than them over the past 18 months Killie still get bigger home crowds.

    Agree with you about younger Killie fans though. They are used to seeing Killie in the top flight and dont know different.

    I was 31 before Killie won a major trophy and can remember the dark days of the mid 80s. Can remember Airdrie giving us a 5-0 spanking at the old Rugby Park!

    When we won the League Cup in 2012 I remember telling my 9 year old nephew to savour it as days like that are few and far between when you follow Killie

    Regrets?

    in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere

    People who voted no and regret it should not be shown animosity.

    There are three different types of no voters:

    1) Fearties

    2) Greedy selfish cúnts

    3) Bigots

    The latter two types are not going to be voting Yes in the future.

    Fearties will.

    They cannot forget what they did, but if they regret their mistake and want to do something positive about then they should not be hounded.

    Some cover all 3 of those categories
