GunnerBairn Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Sky show all sorts. I'm a golfer and their coverage of the big events is top drawer these days. They also show some events in the tour below the proper tour, where the players are unknowns, and are pulling their clubs on trolleys themselves! All I'm suggesting is that I don't find it that far-fetched to think that Sky would be interested in offering the SFL a bob or two to show Sevco away games. In this saga, since Feb 14, it's far from the craziest thing I've ever heard! I don't see Sky 'walking away'. True. Given that their current SPL deal is an absolute pittance compared to other European deals, it's not beyond the realms of possibility for them to throw in a few more shillings for the scavenging gypsies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThirdrockfromtheSon Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 With Stenny saying they went "No", does that make Quisling Count: * Hamilton * QotS * Brechin * Dumbarton (nope, they voted no) * East Stirlingshire ? Surprised at you - you're normally on the ball....... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Dogma Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Och well, I'm no expert...

Mastermind Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Real real sorry but just back in (half cut)! honestly just cracked open a bottle of champagne that my sister wanted kept for her wedding later this year! So a big fat Charlie for the the first person to tell me who the 5 yes's were? I am absolutely ecstatic but this thread has moved on >80 pages since I last checked can't be arsed checkin 'mon the diddies :D:D Oh and I will be visiting both Clyde & Raith at least once this season to show my support for the way their respective boards have shown the way on this issue, much respect is due! So when does the campaign to have Stu Cosgrove as head of SFA or single body begin? I would support that 100% as would (I suspect) many other diddy fans. Peace out!!!

In this saga, since Feb 14, it's far from the craziest thing I've ever heard! I don't see Sky 'walking away'. I would imagine that would be very much dependant on what kind of squad they have. If they are trashing every club in the 3rd by 6, 7, 8 nil every week I'd imagine the Homo Erectus mob would buy it. Then again, if Charlie's squad is decimated by TUPE, they might find themselves in a dogfight, literally, every other week. Make no mistake, there'll be a fair few 3rd Div. players out to take a scalp or two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know it makes sense...after all, it's Armageddon otherwise! Edited July 13, 2012 by MK Col 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madeirabhoy Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 You've just pointed to the vast elephant standing in the corner! Who's to say SKY won't walk away altogether? No OF games and no prospect of Sevco in the top tier for 3 years. SKY have been very very quiet with the only noises coming from their pishy attempts at reporting this story on SSN. Do SKY do walking away? Nows the time to find out. um... common sense... sky have been quiet coz cockwomble and ronald reagan have been trying to do their bidding. however the rebels won. reasons why sky wont pull out........ 1. scottish football is cheap tv to them. a whole season for the cost of blackpool v wigan 2. there are what, a million subscribers in scotland (feel free to correct this) , all paying an average of 50 quid a month for tv, internet etc..... thats 600 million a year. saving 18 million to risk huge amounts of that going to bt internet, or god forbid, freesat....bonkers 3. given that sky will be paying for scottish football, it doesnt make sense to pay too little. 4. already sky pay a low amount compared to other nationalities. 5. if they dont BT will. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
