Nothing will change. Both old firm clubs on tv away from home alternative weeks.  Then everyone else gets the odd live game throwing in.

I go on holiday on the Saturday so I'm hoping for the Sunday too so I've got time to find a sports bar. ?

Pish set up. Misses top games too eg say Celtic v Aberdeen. 

 

The only positive remains the delayed full game transmission on Alba at 6pm of non Old Firm games. Sometimes can watch not knowing score.

Celtic v Aberdeen is sometimes shown. 

 

There are 2 broadcasters so they can't just pick whichever erse cheek is away that weekend.

Celtic home games outside first/last games and Old Firm are not shown very often. 

 

Also for example every Hearts v Aberdeen game in 15/16 was live. Next season with Rangers back non were. 

 

In England all the big games are shown. You would never get Man City v Liverepool or Arsenal v Man Utd 3pm Saturday.

Let's see.    We have 1 more year of BT and SKY combined.     

 

If we get 2 games per week it canny always be the old firm away that's on the box.

I don’t understand why people care if the OF are always on the tele. 

 

More Hearts games at 3 o’clock the better

Market forces dictate which games are shown. 

 

Its a most unfortunate fact, but nevertheless a fact, the pair of them generate most viewers most advertisers and there most revenue returns for investment.  It would be bad business not to

I got Premier sports last year to take in the odd game.If BT and Sky are sharing the fixtures there is probably no merit in keeping it on,

Other than the 4 derbies, the 4 games at home vs the arse cheeks, and Celtic’s trophy day, can’t think of many other league games we were on tv last season other than the Motherwell game when Doyle sold the jerseys, Killie away in Feb, and the Livingston horror show (Aberdeen away end of season as well I think?) . Don’t expect us to have any more than 12ish this season either

Thanks for that. Hopefully I will be at the final anyhow. Think I will cancel  as £6.00 a month is relatively a poor return in terms of the games available particularly as in all likelihood I will be at the Hearts Scottish cup games.

I really don't get why the OF get to dictate how few games are allowed to be shown at Parkhead/Ibrox. 

 

 

It’s the same for all clubs.

Didn't realise. Would have thought doing that would drive down the value of the deal? 

 

Good to know though, thanks :)

The Of don't dictate it, its the TV companies that pick the games

My understanding was that they (OF) didn't like games at Parkhead and Ibrox. The TV companies would probably jump on any games they can get at those stadiums because invariably its 40k+

 

Dave clarified it, so not to worry :)

Certainly is. If by some miracle we generate as much interest then it would change. 

But of course everything is set up to ensure it will never happen

Not strictly true. Old Firm did dictate none of their games would be on Alba and the home game limit is also in place to protect them and them alone. They set that agenda a few years back now

No idea about the alba thing and I don’t disagree re their rationale re the home game limit.

Have to say I'm extremely disappointed with the Title of this thread - I was getting all excited about a possible return of Blankety Blank !!

You must be one of the few. BT's coverage of our league is streets ahead of Sky's. Kris Commons ffs.

Finding there's less and less I watch on Sky. Their schedule is pretty light these days - the number of repeats and 'playoff 2012 highlights' they have is ridiculous.

Yes but the live coverage at weekend is good. 

I'm not a fan of champions league so suits me well.

You are most likely in a crowd of 1 to come out with that...BT have been absolutely fantastic for the Scottish game and other than not continuing their support, they cant be faulted at all...

Genuinely thought this season it was Sky and Premier showing Scottish footie - so do BT still have it this season?

I thought it was next.   Didn't know Premier were getting in on the league. 

 

So 1 more year of BT / sky

Summary of next year's deal is extra £10m for Scottish football but showing fewer games.     Only max of 48 games which is 12 less than current.  But all on the one broadcaster - SKY.
