Phil Dunphy Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 2 minutes ago, Sir Gio said: Age old argument. The cash can't be ignored. Money is linked to the product that fans crave. The more successful you are the more variety of kick off times. Sunday and Monday night matches are hugely off putting for me but a great slot for TV That would make sense if TV money in Scotland came anywhere close to making up the amount of money that fans do. I’m sure I read somewhere that a Premiership club can expect 11% of the turnover to come from TV money. Compare that to around 40% from fans through the door.

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Just had a look on Premier Sports site https://www.premiersports.com/football/scottish-cup-live-games.html They have scheduled 4.45 on Saturday and 1.30 Sunday, no idea if ko time or on air. Its where the BBC fit round these and where the BBC fit in pecking order for the ties, or do they just get what Premier don't want? Almost certain the delay surrounds a potential evening ko for Aberdeen and Rangers. These TV companies wont be thinking Kilmarnock at all.

Presuming we’re third or fourth choice, I can’t see any reason why the Beeb can’t choose to have our game on Saturday lunchtime or later on Sunday afternoon. Monday night will greatly reduce what would otherwise be a sell out crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Treasurer Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 If the delay is (as seems to be the case) Premier Sports holding off until they know the outcome of the sevco replay they should be told to GTF.

A similar post suggested the final derby was going to be played on a Friday evening, it isn't. BBC likely to show the game, really its what slots they have and which slot they reckon is strategically best for them to place us, as the biggest draw in the non Old Firm (possible) ties. I expect Celtic Hibs to be the Saturday evening, Aberdeen against the winner of the replay Sunday early afternoon. I could be very wrong, the other 2 slots I am guessing will be Saturday lunch or Monday evening. Boabies will want a say, I am hoping their usual fuss is to our benefit and we get the Saturday.

What if its out of their hands, in this case Premier? Contractually there are rights to screen games at certain times, if I have won that contract I am going to fight to get the best deal for my company. Really annoying for us waiting, but from Premiers perspective they want the 2 matches they will select at the optimum time for maximising their revenue. Part and parcel of entering these TV deals, but on the whole better than no TV deal for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
