The TV deal isn’t great but the only other option was BT who were offering a lot less to show 20+ more games. The spfl would’ve been crucified if they’d taken that. I remember the first PL season in 92-93 and there was 60 live games shown on Sky I believe. Edit - So we're getting closer to 1992 in England!

Clown Job Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Sky treat showing Scottish football as if a chore. The SPFL are no better either for agreeing to this deal, surely they could have insisted on better promotion of the game as part of the deal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranaldo Bairn Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 To be fair, Jeff was all over the Scottish matches all evening with stats and informative updates. The man is a broadcasting God. This does not excuse Sky from their overarching responsibilities to our game though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 They showed the "Scottish football highlights" on Sky Sports News there. Shots of every game having a minutes silence, then the goals from Celtic and Rangers, and that was it... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swami Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Mind when everyone used to go on about how much better BT was than Sky? That fucking Scottish Football Extra on BT is absolutely unwatchable. Literally 2 minutes about anything other than the old firm. Even the fucking quiz questions are basically all about them an all, and Sutton and McCoist being a pair of banter merchants can f**k right off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried watching it a few times as there is very little build up programmes on tv about Scottish football but it all seems a bit too put on by the 3 of them.
