edranger 0 Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 A review of sports shown free on terrestrial television must include Scotland football games, the SNP has urged. Culture Secretary Andy Burnham has said the time was right to look at whether the correct events were protected. The list of so-called sporting "Crown Jewels" was last reviewed 10 years ago when Test match cricket was removed. The SNP said it was a "disgrace" that Scotland's football matches were only available on subscription television. None of Scotland's qualifying campaign for the 2010 World Cup is being shown on terrestrial channels. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/7639315.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandelay 0 Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 I would love to see Scotland on terrestrial all the time, but the simple matter is that money talks and the SFA need money from pay channels particularly since we've not qualified for a tournament in ages.

radlord 24 Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 They can stay on subs channels if it means there;'s more money invested in football in my opinion. Sorry SNP, your prole-appeasing cheap vote winning announcement has no affect on me! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
