Bzzzz Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 You'd think that the powers that be might have a contingency plan for a reply like the Embra derby.. I'll be at the game anyway but I think it is quite ridiculous that we can't even watch our own cup games on tv in our own country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choosing the 2 matches between the 2 geographically closest teams for the early kick-offs (if there has to be such a thing) would make the most sense (but I doubt they did it that way for that reason).

Similarly the Aberdeen website isnt allowed to stream the Aberdeen v Motherwell game which is a farce as well. It's showing here http://www.vipleague.is/sports/football.html Redtv are possibly showing the full match, delayed? Might work, might not......

AberdeenAngus Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I get the whole thing about the TV deals and money for the clubs. Surely the whole point of tv companies paying for games is to maximise viewers? The kick off times are an obvious issue for those going to matches but they can't be the best times for TV viewers either? Why not use more Friday nights and Saturday/Sunday tea time or even later?

You get 20 points a season for being a ST holder, 10 points a season for being a shareholder, 1 points for a home game and 2-6 points for away games depending on the distance. They don't sell tickets and allocate points for all away games though so despite having gone to McDiarmid twice, Dens, Dingwall and Hamilton this season i have yet to register a point for an away game. The problem with the Hearts points system is that it only really comes into play for Cup Finals and games at Easter Road and as they manually add the points on they don't always get it right either 3 hours ago, Bzzzz said: Did you get loyalty points for Ross Co away?
