Prices are getting out of hand ,so many are leaving due to the availability on streams that’s the folk staying on sky broadcasts are paying the difference .It’s a spiralling cost that will reach breaking point very soon . 6superbarry6 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the issue. Competition is supposed to give a better deal to the consumer, instead it made everything more expensive. To watch everything I want to watch, I need 4 different subscriptions (and I don't watch football outside Scotland). It is a 3 figure monthly number and far too expensive. Not hard to see why illegal streams have taken off. LiverpoolBlue, J-Maestro, BookWorm and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they could get an extra 800 or so through the gates every home game who are locals / Killie fans then it would make up for the loss of us and them. I don't think there's anything wrong in trying to grow your own fanbase so you are less reliant on OF fans - in the long run you would make more money. Its a risky strategy though - as per St Johnstone admitting last year that it has failed. But Ayrshire and Kilmarnock is much more of a football place than Perthshire is so I think they have a better chance of making it a success - under Bobby Williamson and Jim Jefferies I think they were averaging 9/10k some seasons.

SteveEarle 10,139 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 McInnes jumping on the bandwagon with Lennon and raising concerns about some of the grounds in the league. You wonder where this will end up...... Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes says he has voiced concerns about the changing areas at "a couple of grounds", as it emerged that clubs have been asked to review their Covid-19 protocols. At a 42-club SPFL meeting last week, one club raised the issue of space given to visiting teams at stadiums. The JRG responded by emailing clubs in the top two tiers asking them to review what they are providing. "There are clubs that do it better than others," said McInnes. "When we are in a dressing room, we have got to be socially distant. But there are a couple of grounds where the concerns are clear right from the outset and you are a bit nervous about that next Covid test. "I have voiced my concerns about where the space isn't adequate, and where if we had a positive test then we would be in real danger of wiping out the majority of the squad." On Monday, Celtic manager Neil Lennon claimed different clubs are interpreting the rules in different ways and criticised the size of the changing facilities at some stadiums. St Johnstone challenged those suggestions after being named, and McInnes was keen to emphasis that he was not "telling tales or sticking clubs in". "We learn from other clubs when we visit, and they can learn from us," he said. "It is just about trying to provide the safest environment and to keep the whole thing moving. "It is great the authorities are now getting involved. The majority of clubs we have visited have been spot on but there are one or two who should be made to do it better." Hibernian counterpart Jack Ross was also about the issue but said he had "been okay with everything". "We've been in areas of stadiums that we normally wouldn't be in and it's the same here at Easter Road, where away teams are changing in the concourse underneath one of the stands," he said. "There has been a variety of ways in which clubs have had to be creative to make sure they provide the necessary facilities." Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
