Gaffer 1,665 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Do you guys watch much football outside our own games? I just ask because I get terrific value from my Rangers TV subscription, and I couldn't get that value from Sky or BT. For many of us that spend a lot of time abroad, we seem to get a much better deal than those who rely on coverage from home soil companies. My only frustration is that I can't watch the Europa League games unless I'm at Ibrox, because RTV doesn't cover those games. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewarty 2,027 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 For me, no. Although I do quite like dipping in and out of whatever big game is on at the weekend, its not enough of an interest that I would miss it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacK1950 2,378 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I ditched Sky sports as an add on to my Virgin package(along with Sky movies) to cut down my monthly outgoings. Not long after had virgin contacting offering me a deal to return to the Sky sports with the carrot of more EPL football to which I made it known I have no interest in EPL. Next they said there were Scottish games as well and I said as I am only interested in only one team could they guarantee that I would see my team every week,they gave up. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, it shows how Scotland is being short changed by Sky in my view. That's not Sky's fault. They've no obligation to overpay for Scottish football. if it's what the market is, then it's what they'll pay. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm not under any obligation to subscribe so that's the way it goes. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I watch a ton of football these days due to the fact that my wife and kid are in the UK and I am in Bermuda. It actually gets so bad that I watched Scotland v Albania at the weekend and I even watched Liverpool ladies vs Man City ladies the other week. What a thrilling life I lead 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tannochsidebear 2,420 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 What a surprise Lawwell running to the defence of his useful planted pet Doncaster. Well if Peter says its the best deal, thats the debate over then. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuGers 477 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Yet more evidence that Doncaster is Lawwell’s pet. The TV deal is almost impossible to compare to England as it is a completely different scale of market. However, you can compare it to similar sized countries in Europe. And it shows we are shafted, no matter what that liar says. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,677 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 The new SKY deal is crap compared to other deals whatever way you look at it. Does no one within Rangers have an opinion of it ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
