I see a couple of the last games pre split have been moved for TV
Is it not just me, that the last pre split and last game after the split should be played at the same time?

Yes. That potentially gives Aberdeen an advantage and Hearts a disadvantage if they're battling for a place in the top 6 at the split.

It’s like they only want the Scottish rights to stop anybody else getting them who might actually try to promote our game.
There’s not masses of high profile games in Scotland so the ones we do have we should be shouting from the roof tops about.
Probably suits them more to drive down the interest in Scottish football so people follow English football more.
Tin foil hat at the ready.

Bonkers decision to put their game with Ross County on TV.
They've got us, Aberdeen and Celtic post split, you'd imagine Sky would want at least one Edinburgh Derby from Tynecastle as part of their four game broadcasts from there, throw in that we could be fighting with them for 3rd place or at least battling for 4th then you'd assume that game would be a no-brainer.
Then you have Aberdeen going there, another club who could be fighting for 3rd or 4th, that's another fixture you'd assume would be a no-brainer for Sky to show.
Then you have the Celtic game, that could be the match they clinch the title, that's usually a game that is a lock in Sky's scheduled, they always show those title clinching games.
So I'm not really sure what the logic is with choosing the Ross County on matchday 33.
Someone was saying yesterday on Twitter it's like Sky might know something we don't already, like if the top six stays the same as it is then Hearts would likely go to Celtic Park for a 3rd time, even if that's the case, it would make even more sense if us and Aberdeen were their two last remaining broadcasts.

I think at the time £22.5m a season was a 16th of the EPL deal at the time, if we got a 16th of the EPL TV deal today we'd be looking at just over £106m per year.
