BigDak 787 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 aye yez are right enough I never noticed the "Host" club part further down the article when reading earlier,,, still there opening line using rangers and "the club should have paid" in the same sentence is poor wording on their part at the very least. Shouldn't expect much else tho tbf.Aye, to be fair, I wouldn't be surprised if it was intentionally worded that way so that people would think what you thought. Then start grumbling even more about us.I made the mistake of going on 'Piss and Bog Roll' yesterday, I'd never heard of it until someone mentioned it yesterday, and you want to read some of the nonsense being posted. Then some guy, I think a Killie supporter, posted viewing figures for Sky and BT which showed how much "it's all about the Rangers". The silence was deafening Fuds!

Blue Atheist 178 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Rangers have got to get themselves out of the current television deal, leading to a collapse of the deal the Premiership has in place.The Championship has all the power at the moment. The Championship offers a far greater value for money for the likes of Sky and BT Sport. Surely there must be a way the league can set up its own deal and leave the Premiership with nothing?......

Clubs in the Championship cant just go and get their own TV deal. The power does not sit with the Championship, just because we, Hearts and Hibs are there.

Why should the quality of the Championship subsidise teams like Aberdeen, Dundee United etc? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets say you are a LTD company and you have two divisions in the company, You allocate the bulk of your resources to divison A, it then turns out that division B brings in more profits. Perfectly reasonable to reallocate resources.The SPFL is a LTD company. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
