    At least we get to see the English highlights.

    If you live down south you’re still paying for Sportscene but you don’t get to watch it!

    English fans must be ragin
    Yep and on that topic..

    When i was a laddie, working down south in the 70's, it always really annoyed me when Engerlish mates didn't know anything about Hibs. It was even worse if they knew a wee bit about Hertz or Abbadeen :-(
    Fast forward 40 odd years, and when I'm on my holidays, it still annoys me as much as it did then !!

    Recall reading recently that the highest viewing figures per head of UK population for match of the day are in Scotland.
    Possibly another reason sportscene gets a Sunday night slot

    Annoys me that English football is rammed down our throats. Care as much about that league as i do about the Dutch league. Get the Scottish highlights up on Saturday night please!

    - absolutely and 100% it's the ultimate in condescension. An uber-patronising insult to Scotland and Scots that we are served up with the football of a different country - presented by that crisp eating walloper Linekar who is paid more than the whole of the Scottish game combined by his employers. Meanwhile, the proponents of our own national game are relegated to some off-schedule slot with the about the same budget as a box of Linkar's crappy crsips.

    How is 6pm on a Sunday worse than 10:30pm on a Saturday?

    Can't remember Sportscene on after Glen Michael's Cavalcade? Only remember Arthur Montford's Scotsport on Sunday's and not Archie Macpherson.

    Find the change channel button on your remote. Or failing that, the 'off' switch.

    More folk would be moaning about paying a licence fee for the likes of Motd and not being able to watch it if it wasn't shown in Scotland...

    I like MotD, I like Sportscene, now that Hibs are in the top league. I watch both, no one rams either down my throat, it's my choice. If I don't like something on TV I change channels or switch it off.
    Totally agree presenters on MotD are way overpaid & Scottish football under valued, but our administrators have a lot to answer for in that respect.

    Folk missing the point by saying 'Don't watch it then.'
    English & euro football is indeed stuffed down our throats, to the point the Champion's League doesn't allow us to
    play matches when their product is on the telly. It's designed to breed interest at the expense of a domestic product.
    So it's a big no thanks from me; I'd much rather our Championship got some decent coverage.
    And aye; our administrators have a lot to answer for.

    meanwhile, back at the ranch,(or heilin bothy) Scottish viewers still have to pay the same rate for their TV Liscence.
    It’s nothing to do with the TV license, it’s down to the SPFL.

    If the SPFL wanted maximum coverage - including Sat Sportscene - then they would sell the rights to the BBC. But they don’t, they just look at who is paying most and at the moment that is Sky and BT - just as it is in England, albeit with smaller numbers up here.

    Similarly, the SFA have sold the rights for international matches to the highest bidder resulting in no terrestrial coverage of those.

    It’s no wonder you are more likely to see kids wearing English team strips than local teams.

    Hear, hear. 👏

    I've got absolutely no time for English or any other country's football for that matter. Need to talk up our game.

    Old enough to remember when it was Sportsreel on BBC on a Saturday night rather than the modern Sportcsene. And it had a rollicking old theme tune.

    Anyone having Euro football rammed down their throat must pay for BT or SKY.The answer is obvious I would have thought.

    Im getting BT sport for nothing as part of my phone deal. I have to say I love it, but I like European football and I don't always want to go to the pub to watch a game, so it works for me.

    I had a BT deal but the new deal contained a charge for the sport so I cancelled it.

    It'll be shown as soon as Traynor and his lackeys decide what's to be shown, and any footage of us playing well is removed.
    Once that's been done, it's just s quick case of fat Jim deciding what comments are to go alongside the clip.

    You jest, but watching the BBC highlights just now it looked as if The Thes should have scored three or four times in the first half, and it was a bit odd not to see the foul which led to their scoring free-kick. Was that foul controversial in any way?

    In the old days of Sportsreel and that I'm sure there was a deliberate policy of editing out bad fouls by the OF.

    Who said that?

    Or was it BBC creative editing

    I missed the show, what was said about our penalty?

    Watched the highlights, everyone on here and Lennon must've been at a different game with the biased highlights screened tonight, the way it's been edited you'd think it was all Rangers, 6-7 attacks to Hibs 2.

    Although they did show and speak about Allan after the highlight, loads of wee clips of all his touches and movement and praised by Thompson and Stewart.

    Yes. They didn't analyse it though.

    I thought it was offside at the time.

    I'm not sure why their goal was ruled out either.

    Why would a Scottish person care in the slightest if English people had heard of Hibs.?

    There are numerous English teams I couldn't tell you the first thing about other than their location.

    Anyone that annoyed about the BBC scheduling then dock a month or two of their licence fee as there is nothing they can do except send a nasty letter.
