    Not that I want our games to be rearranged to fit in with a TV schedule but its interesting that, for the games selected by Sky, all involve one or both of the ugly sisters:

    They obviously think Scotland are only interested in the old firm

    Sky football is good but their coverage of Scottish football is sub-optimal

    Nah BT was much better, better product and pundits, not that i'm biased, having got it for free with the bottom tv package. Pisser that Sky have taken over the Premiership deal, esp with their biased coverage, only interested in 2 clubs.

    Dundee Utd and Partick th have better coverage on bbc in the Championship.

    Can’t say BT have impressed me at all. I tended not to watch Scottish games anyway though.

    I didn't watch the Premiership games till we were playing there, BT will still be doing Champions League games though, so at least i'll still be able to watch them on it.

    Up side of Sky's it has to be The Rangers or Celtic playing before they'll be interested pish, we wont have any games being rescheduled to Sunday at 12 or 1 PM.

    Sky announced that they got the rights to Scottish football along with a picture of Rodgers/Gerrard and the OF badges. No other club given any consideration.

    You also see on SSN they constantly get team name/badges wrong, they're a complete embarrassment and them having the rights is a massive disappointment.

    Me neither & I still only recorded our games to watch back later.

    I think their CL coverage is ok but not as good as Sky had been doing. The only innovation I liked was the ex-ref commenting on decisions but even then I found myself disagreeing with the ref and recognising that they simply don’t understand how players move or balance.

    Scottish football will never progress until it gets a pair of balls and stops pandering to the bigot bros, this is a step backwards having Sky taking over the TV deal to our games.

    BTW, wouldn't surprise me if we're blacklisted by them in games against the 2 arse cheeks cause of our artificial pitch, after Slippy G moaned about it.

    I will agree that Sky don’t give a monkeys about our league, only the gruesome twosome.

    And I definitely agree that we will remain a footballing backwater until the league is set up in a fairer way so that the rest are not ignored or stomped on.
