invergowrie arab Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 BBC article saying no lucrative prize money this year as no sponsor. Anyone know what difference is from previous years? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 The sponsorship was worth just over £1m a year as far as I can gather. However, the domestic TV rights are worth over £3m a year, so I guess overall prize money will be down about 25-30% unless there are other commercial deals.The relative value of sponsorship deals compared to broadcasting deals is always overestimated - it's the same with the SPFL. The prize money in the Scottish Cup is always much lower than the League Cup too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Master Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Premier have a 90-minute build up to their game on Sunday 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough in the week before the Betfred Cup final they couldn't find time to show Livi's 2004 triumph or St Johnstone's Scottish Cup win in 2014. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PauloPerth Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Shaping up to be quite an uninteresting quarter final line up for the neutral with four uninspiring all-Premiership ties looking highly likely. I guess the way the season has gone has played a big part. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That leaves Kilmarnock v St Mirren and Stranraer/Hibs v Motherwell on the BBC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if the BBC would keep one of those games to the Saturday or have a Fri or Sun/Mon game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillips455 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 The BBC will go for the Hibs vs Well game and Killmarnock vs St mirren. The Aberdeen game will probably be taken by Premier along side the Old Firm Victor vs St Johnstone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Last time the quarter finals had eight top flight sides? Checked the last ten years without success but can’t be arsed going back further.Obviously aware that Hibs could Hibs it against Stranraer... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, Hamilton always plays like Barca against the Well, so it could be money well spent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute stick on you have Hibs v Well and Killie v Maureens to look forward to next weekend. I’m sure they will all be thrashing out the details over bacon rolls, pastries and coffee first thing tomorrow morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a real curveball if those games werent the ones shown on council TV! Dont think there will be a Fri night game, so BBC will probably have a Sat 12pm game and a Sunday or Monday one 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Their TV schedule for next week has two live Scottish Cup shows listed - Sunday at 2:05pm and Monday at 7pm. I'm therefore guessing that we'll have a 2:30pm kick-off on Sunday and a 7:30pm kick-off on Monday. What way round the two games are is anyone's guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
