    BT pulled out though, they weren't even in contention this time around.

    Sky aren't going to pay more than they have to, so it's take their money, or less if someone else comes in.
    Or we could resurrect SPL TV- or some variation of it and live stream games. Maybe that would pay more. Ron is an experienced TV guy

    The first proviso on TV games should include that both Rangers and Celtic cannot have televised games on the same weekend!
    This gets boring to fans, Rangers home game on Saturday, Celtic away game on Sunday, then change it round next week!!!
    TV money is great, but we all know the majority of it goes in the Glasgow direction, so Scottish football as a whole does not get a fair share?
    The Old Firm have big crowds to supplement their greed for money, but when things go wrong, they blame other Scottish clubs for not being stronger like them!!!
    Give us a bigger share and we will get stronger, and maybe even be able to match them!!!!
    Rant over!!! The last line is never going to happen, they are not that stupid!!!!

    The biggest problem for competition in the Scottish game is the 4 games
    Hibs beat Rangers in 3 weeks
    The Rangers only have one league game opportunity to balance the head to head against us
    As it stands just now, there is every chance they could acquire the remaining 9 points from us
    Playing twice would narrow the gap
    The only problem is trying to persuade the Motherwell St Johnstone Livingston to agree
    As we know they will be very reluctant

    I’d be surprised if the idea of how to increase the TV money is to sell something like twice the number of games (at least) compared to the current deal. We’re never going to meaningfully increase the money by only selling 48 games a season. That also means that the rest of the league would get shown more.

    One area of expansion would be to stream each clubs away games if not on TV live. Clubs probably got an idea of how much revenue they hit during lockdown for those games on PPV. Sure it might reduce away supports but wonder if the streaming would bring in much more
