Yeah, that money's shite, not even ten grand for making it to round 3 unless you're televised. It's not like Scottish Gas hasn't been robbing us blind the last year.

Just typical of the SFA and SPFL though. Jump at the first offer .....................whether it's to the benefit of Scottish fitba or not.

I was comparing the prize money with the FA Cup .  In England the winners get £2m plus TV money.  You would think the SFA could at least try and sell the Scottish cup for around half of that . 

The SFA winner gets about 17% of the English one. That seems a pretty good deal given the relative audience sizes - maybe 10%?.

At the minute we've got a combined deal between the BBC and Viaplay (originally Premier Sports). Presumably because it was worth more than either Sky or BT ( now TNT Sports) were willing to pay. I don't think they took the first offer in this instance. They jumped at the best financial offer.

You'd think Musselburgh v Clyde is a stick on for TV

100%.

Dunbar vs East Fife the only other potential contender IMO but Clyde game seems a very obvious pick.

I’d pick Tranent v East Kilbride, the two teams with loadsamoney, well Tranent at least did at the start of the season. Could be a cracking tie.

Dunbar vs East Fife and maybe Brechin vs Spartans might be of interest to BBC Scotland as well.

Watch them go for Kilwinning vs Cowdenbeath 🤣

Or Pollok v Gala - to cover Musselburgh or Dunbar BBC Glasgow would have to recognise the East of Scotland exists
