B1872 20,640 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Any other CEO in the history of business (apart from probably Enron or Worldcom) would have been sacked by now on sheer incompetence alone. A league with Rangers and celtic in it not to mention Steven Gerrard and we can’t get a fucking sponsor. Now it turns out calling the SPFL early will cost us millions. Jesus fuck!!!!!

doc holliday 1,653 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Well he delivered 100% for Big Pete and ra sellick. So big bonus for 'daeing as he is telt' is a stick on. The fact that it is 'tainted' as feck and we all know it,won't bother Doncaster. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately this is Scotland where others clubs choose to bury their heads and let this clown continue running the game into the ground. They'll also likely applaud him for it.

esquire8 42,313 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 So.... Sky get the league sponsorship naming rights and £1.5m paid back over 5 seasons.... BT get £4.5m paid back in one lump sum from this seasons pot..... Doncaster gets a big % of his bonus...... Hearts, Partick and Stranraer get compensation payments.... But hey! Let's announce we've done a deal with Sky that now means clubs can charge season ticket holders more money over above their season ticket price to watch the home games on tv..... Nothing to see here guys. Everything is perfect.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving the tarriers that worthless title didn’t half cost everybody a good few quid Could have covered the cost of testing players to complete the season and the cost of the much needed VAR but no need to change something that’s working well for lieswell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

British_Empire 9,648 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 So fans are having to pay twice to watch their team? once via their season tickets that they can't access the stadium with, then again for a stream of said game? Why is this not being provided, for free, to season ticket holders? you could easily assign subscriptions linked to season ticket details to ensure people who have paid will get what they've paid for. Or is that what's happening? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m doing the same mate. As I said, as far as I’m concerned my ST entitles me to watch the home games. If the league and Sky have come up with this deal to show games then fine, but I’m not paying the club anymore to watch it. Although the clubs match day takings for BCD games will be reduced, so will their costs. Let’s see what comes out before the next payment is due at the end of June.

Prso's headband 35,278 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Can’t believe the TV deal is worth even less than before and the clubs in this country are happy with that. Absolutely amazing.

bluenoz 30,640 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 They told us n&v was not feasible because we would owe the broadcasters millions and by ending the season early, Doncaster has now confirmed a rebate is to be paid to Sky. They downright refused to look at Rangers proposal and all of the other clubs naively bought it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No mention from them of a £10 mill liability or giving the naming rights away for nothing. It smacks of people using Covid-19 to line their own pockets while others suffer. That doesn't sit right with me. I think with regards to your second point, some clubs will immediately vote down a proposal just because of the fact it comes from Rangers. Scottish football will hate itself to death, ably assisted by the SPFL and celtic. They'll make a few quid though, so all good for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
