SteelmaninOZ Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 A 6:15 pm ko as we all know now. Television and money talks? Alan Burrows and Celtic did ask the question, more on his twitter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelboy Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 I was half expecting them to ask us to play on the Tuesday after playing on the Sunday. Why we can't just play Rangers on the Saturday is beyond me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twistandshout1983 Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 No doubt the 6:15 kick off time on the Wednesday will be to do with the fact neither Rangers or ourselves will want to play on the Tuesday , and with Premier showing the Killie game on the Tuesday they will have to have both games back to back as both Celtic and Rangers always get shown Could have had one of the games on the Thursday , that happened when we played Aberdeen in 2017 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing Rangers on the Saturday would be the best scenario, probably something to do with the fact they play Liverpool the Wednesday before , and will of course want an extra day to prepare for the game , as they would cry everyone is against them otherwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Grew Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 He who pays the piper calls the tune. In other words, TV dictates when and at what time matches are played. This will likely mean the gate for the game will be much reduced from what it might have been. It won’t happen, but the TV company should be told to stump-up more cash to compensate.

Apart from advertising though from where do these TV companies derive their footballing income? I feel especially aggrieved. Out of principle, I do not subscribe to TV company sports channels, yet have to put up with their will being forced upon me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stv Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 What an absolute feking shite ko time. Some folk won’t even be in from work. It’s getting pathetic now. No one gives a toss about those who actually turn up to watch a game or season ticket holders who actually invest in Scottish football as well as the tv companys 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
