For domestic coverage they were just like sky and premier sports, basically old firm TV I must say they've given me some of the most spine tingling commentary of Scotland goals I can ever remember Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ally Bongo Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 The Premier League has agreed a new record £6.7bn domestic television deal for Sky and TNT to show up to 270 live games a season. The deal includes the BBC continuing to show highlights on Match of the Day. The top flight said the deal, which covers the four years from the 2025-26 season, is the "largest sports media rights deal ever concluded in the UK".

Their coverage and knowledge of the Scottish game is beyond horrendous but Doncaster chased the cash and then bent over at the first offer from sky. The clubs in Scotlandsnd the SFA really need to have a long hard think to themselves and stop looking short term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was (or was it) around time Setanta deal collapsed. The majority of SPL clubs were up for setting up a new SPL TV Channel effectively cutting out the middleman which would mean more money ending up with the clubs and more level distribution. However, the Old Firm were against it as wanted to keep lion's share of any new deal they could set up with Sky etc. It went to a vote and I think the screwed up voting system has Celtic and Rangers holding 60% of vote so basically whatever they want in a vote it will happen and it did and new deal signed with Sky with the SPL TV channel booted into the long grass.

Hope it's still Rory Currie & Michael Stewart on commentary. Both were a breath of fresh air from the Ian Crocker & David Provan days 🙄 Edited March 13 by DesiScotsman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky and other subscription based tv companies won't feel there is value in Scotland warm up matches. It would be a different story if this was a competitive match Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netherlands and NI games certainly are. Presumably BBC Scotland have struck some sort of deal with Viaplay to show the home games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
