As far as I am aware there is no TV deal to show any of the Championship games

The deals are with the SPFL so they could technically show a championship game if they wanted. Nothing to say they have to which is why i doubt they will.

Do ALBA not have a deal for live games though?

Why is it good? We will sell out regardless and many will miss out.

Does not affect our income, since TV money is what pays for the prize pots. Maybe I can enjoy a lot more Saturday 3pm kick offs after a few pints rather than a hurried pint for a Sunday 12.30 ko! Also gates should be higher for Sat 3pm than for a switched televised game, so Hibs make more out of it. Only way we will have Sunday games is if we get a Europa League run, and in that case I could live with it!

Completely selfishly I am delighted as I am off to the Community Shield at Wembley on the Sunday.

Was worried for a bit that they'd change our game to be on TV.

So its the usual Rangers and Celtic away matches with the odd appearance no doubt by Aberdeen and Hearts.

Saturday 3.00pm kick-offs was the deciding factor for me getting a season ticket this season. If we get promoted, it will also be the deciding factor for me NOT getting one next season as a lot of our games end up getting moved to stupid O'clock on Stupid day.
