What time is kick off? Is it clashing with a Challenge Cup game or something? It's a shame that one of the games fans will find it hardest to go to won't be shown live now (unless it's elsewhere - online or via Italian TV maybe?).


Back of 4. Don't think there is a clash and streaming online for Italian games is tricky if your not in Italy. Suspect it's at the Italian end this decision has been made but not sure why. It's hardly going to encourage more Glasgow fans to travel and the financials would surely have been agreed before alba started advertising the game and it went onto the schedules.

BBC Alba is showing QotS v Linfield at 1pm. So even if it went to extra-time and penalties it would still be finished before 4pm.


Implication seems to be that the game being dropped is a decision made in Italy rather than here....still no idea why though.

How odd....both alba and sky had it on schedules (alba also advertised it last week during the dragons game ) and I was able to set a reminder for it on my sky planner.

I think they were advertising it while they were trying to get the rights for the game thinking they would get it no problem.

Possible still surprising that they committed to saying they had it. Even more surprising that they didn't get them. One more thing Pro12 authorities need to work on.

I think what games that are not selected by Sky it is down to the host broadcaster to show it (if they choose to) or to let another show it. Rai sport have the Italian rights for the Pro12 so it will be down to them to set up broadcast.
