JM1872 3,821 Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Brilliant from the Club.I still maintain the belief they should look to get RTV back on mainstream TV on Sky, Freeview (top up TV etc).Through PPV and subscription packages for away games (if it's possible next season) we would made a killing.

Reformation Bear 6,453 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Fantastic. I thought the game was on RTV yesterday - got settled to watch it only to find it wasn't (idiot - misread the advert for the game and assumed it was on RTV). Question - probably been asked before but can't find the thread - why can Rangers not broadcast the sound commentary over the internet so that we could listen to it as though it was a radio broadcast. Do the TV rights contracts prevent us doing our own internet radio commentary broadcast? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

govanblue 16,847 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 I'll have some of that.They have hopefully addressed the login issues, so we can all see the pre-match build up this timeFor anyone who is undecided, may I point out that everyone agreed last time that the picture quality and stream quality was top notch!

AlBear. 8,499 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Ordered. Supporters can be assured that following the issues encountered in our last live UK broadcast the Club has partnered with a major telecomms provider to ensure that RangersTV can handle huge demand.

yoga bear 20 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Sounds like a good idea, there's more folk got access to Freeview than anything else, without having to pay any additional package costs.Would we not have to get permission from SFA? You know what their answer would be!By the way, how do I get this game? I subscribe to RTV but couldn't see a link. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM1872 3,821 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Sounds like a good idea, there's more folk got access to Freeview than anything else, without having to pay any additional package costs.It would be a great idea mate and one I might try and put across to the Club if possible.You know what internet connections are like these days. Aye, they're fast at times, but some are unreliable. Having RTV back on mainstream TV would be great for the fans, home and abroad, and the Club. Say you charged the regular price of £6 PPV game. 18 away games in a year (not counting potential cup clashes, I doubt we'd have rights to them anyway), you're talking £108 from one supporter for the season. On top of that say they are also a ST holder, £350 + two jerseys = £80. In total, that supporter is paying £538 to the Club alone. I'm not saying EVERY supporter will do this and so on but you can be guaranteed that around 90% of the ST holders at Ibrox will be the same. Going by this seasons ST sales, that would be roughly 34200 people. If they 34200 each paid £538 per season for ST, merchandise and RTV away games, you're looking at £18,399,600 all in... and that's without considering any non-ST holders paying £108 for away game viewing on TV. The figures for away games alone if ST holders took it up (37k) would be circa £4m. 200,000 plus went to Manchester, we all know that, and if they 200,000 all took it up that's £21m Ok, maybe that's a bit unrealistic but you have to speculate to accumulate.It's an avenue the Club should explore again, especially for the UK fanbase. The overseas Bears seem happy with the RTV coverage and if there are no problems there then fine, let them stick to that. It might be difficult to get an RTV TV channel to them anyway.It's definitely something worth exploring. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GersAvA92 53 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Think this was orignally to be on ESPN, I'm happy with paying for a stream though. The last one took a while to start but the picture was very good! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
