TheMotor 2,208 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Totally off-topic, but there is something weird happening with the profile of the SPL due to our problems. Danish TV is showing our game with the scum and they haven't shown a single match since Gravesen was dropped by Strachan.On-topic, we have been getting regular mentions in the New York times column that discusses "soccer" on TV since we signed Boca and Bedoya. They have regularly been plugging Rangers TV. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieCoopersLeftFoot 56 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Fox must have decided it wanted another 30 viewers. Will probably be marketing it as a death sport, will pixelate the ball and be like 'look at how these savages punt a human head up and down this unkempt muddy field.

AlCapone 7,678 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Fox Soccer Plus gets Scottish US TV rightsPublished: March 13, 2012 3:48 PMBy The Associated Press  LOS ANGELES - (AP) -- Fox Soccer is adding the Scottish Premier League to its schedule to go along with the top leagues of England, Italy and France.Fox said Tuesday it had reached an agreement to televise the SPL on its Fox Soccer Plus network in the U.S. and Caribbean through the 2013-14 season. Its first game will be between Rangers and Dundee United on Saturday, and it will televise its first the Old Firm derby between Glasgow rivals Celtic and Rangers on March 25.Celtic leads Rangers by 25 points. Rangers, who feature Americans Carlos Bocanegra, Maurice Edu and Alejandro Bedoya, have been in turmoil after filing for bankruptcy last month.FSP plans to televise up to two Scottish matches per week and a half-hour highlights show.Mmmmmmmmmmmm.Why would it? A contract with the SPL while welcome will be worth buttons to the SPL and Rangers. I dont believe there is much to be made in the US of A for Rangers whether we have Yanks playing for us or not. 99% odf Americans couldnt even name of players. Its like asking A Scotsman about the Oregon tree climbing league. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasGers 96 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I see this is for Fox Soccer Plus, which is the premium version of the regular channel so it's pretty hard to get unless you have the right cable provider with the 500 channel package or whateverI'm also pretty sure they've shown Old Firm matches on the main channel in the past?

cstamomusa 3,811 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Yanks love success, apart from those from Boston who generally love children. Hate to burst your bubble but the New England area has loads of Scottish and Ulster-Scots living here as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
