OzGers 425 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I just want to know what is going on with setanta? So far they have shown the celtic swiss friendlies live, and they are showing the tic v newcastle match live as well, yet both the ajax and chelsea games are not going to be on, even though both would have huge tv ratings. What is going on there??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace 3,556 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Probably because both game sare at Ibrox, Rangers don't wan't to discourage people buying a ticket (or tickets) for the matches & ricking the chance of getting a full house. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davy 68 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Maybe because they are an Oirish company ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzGers 425 Posted July 23, 2007 Author Share Posted July 23, 2007 I can appreciate that, but what about delayed coverage at least? I mean, i am going to the games so all is fine there, however considering the competition we are facing it would be nice to get a bit of coverage around the world and show that we are capable of competing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzGers 425 Posted July 23, 2007 Author Share Posted July 23, 2007 i checked the setanta site here in Britain and the ajax or chelsea games are on their website as being shown live. I checked the tv guide on sky and its not listed on the tues or the sat - i know their a replays on rangers tv...maybe their is live feed outside of UK Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricksen_da_best 2,034 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 see how setanta are only allowed to give live coverage of 4 games from one stadium all season..would pre season games count? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooper1989 0 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Shitanta is showing both live in North America... (Ajax/Chelsea) So will probably be on the net as well... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzGers 425 Posted July 23, 2007 Author Share Posted July 23, 2007 Shitanta is showing both live in North America... (Ajax/Chelsea) So will probably be on the net as well...still i feel for those fans in uk who cant afford the matches and still cant watch it at the pub or at home- as i said, i am heading to both matches, but alot of my mates cant afford to fork out 30plus pounds for the tickets and glamour friendlies against big euro teams is something that should be pulicised as much as possible to get our great club out to the masses and show the world we are just as good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coverage at the best of times quite frankly, sucks. And as you say 30 quid -- plus all the other costs of going to the match makes it impossible for a lot of fans. Consider: If you have a boy or 2 that wants to go.. right away that + 100 pounds to go... A helluva lot of money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
