KeyserSoze 14,531 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 It was Sky that covered the game so its got nothing to do with BT sport I was saying that BT would have covered "audio" of the game and sold their stream of such to other broadcasters - radio and the like or even on their catch up service, just because they are not covering it live doesn't mean to say they can't be there to make revenue in other areas...Just like Sky would sell their coverage of the game to broadcasters showing highlights, news clips etc...

gogzy 31,195 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 "TELLY bosses are shifting pitch-side mics so viewers don’t hear sectarian chants during games.BT Sport chiefs say they will move gear and change settings to blank out banned anthems.Mics were placed in a higher position at a Rangers tie last week after trouble with supporters belting out hate songs at a previous game. A source said yesterday: “This will be happening more and more because sadly sectarian singing appears to have resurfaced more publicly this season.“Viewers outwith the Old Firm must hear about things like this and be totally baffled.”BT Sport moved the audio gear last week during a Scottish Cup tie between Rangers and Cowdenbeath.It came after banned songs could clearly be heard during the Ibrox club’s grudge match against Hibs at the end of December.Meh - OP is a bit para - it qoutes "audio" not about being on the telly, and is general to both sets of the OF. If I was a broadcaster I would do they same.....non storya lot of shite. Veiwers outwith the old firm take part in as much dodgy singins as any of the old firm fans."hate songs" is a nice new way to put it Like when the sheep sing to us about injuring durrant, or when we are told to "go home ya huns" from every other team.

Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I heard swearing at BT's coverage of the Livy v Hivs game, no apology, I'm pure offended.They apologised for bad language or something at the hertz vs sheep game.

Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Andy Murrays never done swearing during his matches. All Mark Petchy does is say "sorry for the language you may have picked up" and thats it. I dont even know why he even feels the need to apologise for someone elses swearing - they are a broadcaster - not the moral guardians of the viewers.No British broadcasters are allowed to broadcast swearing before 9pm. They can be fined for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cushynumber 25,178 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 No British broadcasters are allowed to broadcast swearing before 9pm.They can be fined for it.and thats fair enough in a taped programme before the watershed - but a sportsman caught inadvertently swearing because of losing a point of something - thats nothing to do with the broadcaster - they have absolutely no control over it other than move the mikes - which is what they are doing at BT sport.

HG5 11,112 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Not sure what sanitised version of the game these guys think exists anywhere else, but i am sure that any viewers in England won't care about words that they can't make out in songs they don't understand.Spot on LB Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
piperpete 3,186 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 BT didn't cover the cup game so he has a point.Its BT who have been filming most live football in Scotland for the last 5 years as sub contractors to other stations.As for moving Micks, I would put them all on a boat back home.

Rambo1872 4,065 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Correct me if i'm wrong but where exactly could you move the mics to inside the stadium which would not pick up the noise of 50,000 of us???? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sket 13,610 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I prefer "Love songs". Love of our club; love of our traditions; love of our Queen & Country.

Blue Avenger 22,567 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 a lot of shite.

I have on several occasions. Not big crowds as you can imagine, but you can hear every word, ranging from o******* bastard, to fenian bastard, paedo, yer maw's a slag, I've shagged yer maw, poofter and so on and that's just at the oppositions players. The oppo subs and coaches get it the best, because they have nowhere to run! Their fans will run down to the away dug out and just give them it tight.Funny as fuck listening and watching the antics. I sit their with a wry grin on the face, thinking of the irony knowing that if it were Ibrox, we are jailed. The easily offended bill was purely made up to oppress us, no one else. It's only the craic for every other team, but for us, it's the jail! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

72barca 1,788 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 If you were the broadcaster, would you not be more concerned with whether the subscriber is tuning in to watch the football on display or to listen to the crowd noise? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
