There may have been subtle changes to the arrangements for this year, but this was the state of play regarding the BBC and Club media rights last year which I put together for another little project. As you can see, the BBC has quite a few restrictions on what it can show and the length of each clip !!! Still, doesnt excuse them from picking the wrong highlights within those clips !!! Video Coverage Clubs: Clubs have the right to broadcast video of all games live outside UK, after midnight in UK for a live Setanta game, or after 10pm for non-live games Setanta: 60 live games per season within the UK & Ireland STV: Extended highlights from one game per week and clips from all others TWI: International TV partner - distributer of live games worldwide (excluding UK) ... to be replaced by Sportfive next season (08/09) who will have "Exclusive live television broadcast rights in the territory by means of analogue, cable and digital terrestrial and satellite broadcast and simultaneous broadband / IPTV broadcast of a minimum of 60 live matches in each Season. Highlights and promotional programming." Audio Coverage Clubs: Clubs have the right to broadcast audio of all games live worldwide. I believe they can stream the BBC feed or like Hibs, use their own commentators. BBC: Territory - UK Only if either club has exercised its right to broadcast. Audio Rights: Exclusive right to broadcast live audio full match commentary across BBC Radio Scotland?s analogue and digital radio services (including via interactive TV) for all Clydesdale Bank Premier League matches (Matches) Exclusive right to broadcast live audio full match commentary across BBC Radio 5 Live?s analogue and digital radio services for up to ten Matches in each Season during the Term Non-exclusive right to stream live audio full match commentary on-line via bbc.co.uk for all Matches Non-exclusive right to stream on-demand audio full match commentary on-line via bbc.co.uk for all Matches for up to seven days after each Match Non-exclusive right to stream on-demand audio commentary highlights and clips on-line via bbc.co.uk for all Matches for up to seven days after each Match Non-exclusive right to make on-demand audio commentary highlights and clips available for download in the form of a podcast on-line via bbc.co.uk for all Matches for up to seven days after each Match Audio-Visual Rights: NEW for 2007/08 Non-exclusive right to broadcast up to 20 minutes per Outside Broadcast Match and up to 5 minutes from all other Matches (subject to a minimum of 2 minutes from any Match) for use in a BBC highlights programme broadcast on linear (traditional digital and terrestrial) television channels. The BBC will have the ability to simulcast this programming via bbc.co.uk Non-exclusive right to broadcast up to 2 minutes of clips rights per Archive Match for use in BBC highlights, news or feature magazine programming broadcast on linear television channels. The BBC will have the ability to simulcast this programming via bbc.co.uk Non-exclusive right to stream up to 5 minutes of clip rights per Match or 2 minutes of clip rights Archive Match on-line via bbc.co.uk in the context of a news item or match report for up to seven days after the news item has been launched or the Match has been played. Audio-Visual Holdbacks: In addition to the usual UEFA regulations the following holdbacks apply across the SPL fixture card: Matches played on Saturday ? no use by BBC before 6pm on Sunday Matches played on Sunday to Friday ? no use by BBC before midnight on the day of the match STV outside broadcast selections may not be used by BBC until after they have been first broadcast by STV in its highlights programme In addition, BBC would not have the right to broadcast highlights on linear television channels during the course of a live Match. Piracy Protection: All audio visual output to be restricted for reception in the UK only and for a maximum period of 7 days from initial broadcast / upload The Clubs .... There have been no changes to what the Clubs can do online as a result of the new audio visual portion of the deal with the BBC. The following holdback restrictions still apply: If a game has been covered live by Setanta in the UK and Ireland then Clubs can exploit on New Media platforms (internet or mobile) audio-visual coverage (entire match or highlights) of SPL matches in which they are involved after midnight on the day that the game is played. If a game has not been covered live by Setanta in the UK and Ireland then Clubs can exploit on New Media platforms audio-visual coverage (entire match or highlights) of SPL matches in which they are involved after 10pm on the day that the game is played. There are no changes to the Clubs? ability to exploit new media rights on a live basis outwith the UK and Ireland Clubs should continue to be aware of UEFA?s Blocked Broadcasting hours. http://www.uefa.com/uefa/news/kind=8192/newsid=19817.html holdbacks apply from now until the end of season 2009/10.

Depending on which rumour(s) you believe (if any) .... he got found out when enjoying intimate relations with a players wife or g/f, he has been looking for more TV work, or he was upset that Rangers lost Cuellar to the EPL ! Its P&B so I will believe nothing until its got a little more credibility

yeah, read that on P&B ...... we will see !!!

Hopefully Burley will go further down the route that if you are consistently playing well for your club side then it doesnt matter who you currently play for ....

Yes, to be written off by the pundits is almost as good as the Spiers "I have many hats and I will eat them all" comment from a few seasons ago ..... Players have less pressure on them media wise and a mentality that they will show these gormless idiots just how little they know. Long may it continue ... so long as they continue to be wrong !!

Mike's a good man and a Caley Thistle supporter to boot despite being transplanted to Glasgow in his working life.

If I were to name any ICT players, the only ones that might get considered right now, and even then for experience with the squad rather than starting players, would be Cowie and/or Black but I suspect they need to have a good season before that is even a possibility.

Who do you feel is worthy based on recent performances ?

I wouldnt deny that he has an eye for a player. Those mentioned plus the likes of Imrie and Barrowman tend to show that but there are still questions over his tactics and his man management. If he can improve those then who knows, he may well go on to get the plaudits he will deserve by then. Fair play to him for bothering to do the right thing with regards to praising the youngsters. It should be part of his job, and the youngsters will appreciate it but lets face it, not all managers would actually do it. Also, fair play to him for appearing to get it right on saturday. By all accounts we were not brilliant but we got three points, away from home, in the season opener, and against a team we had never beaten before .... there's a few parts of that equation we dont normally do well in so credit where it is due.

Excuse my ignorance but who exactly is Tom Daly ?

mmmm, just ask jailender about those kinda comments ..... they can haunt you !!!!! Glad they might be singing it to us instead of the other way round ..... come the end of the season we will see who is still smiling LOL

Only because Parliament is on holiday.

Indeed it did I had a chance to look at the code for that part of the forum this afternoon ...... it wont be easy but I will work on it as well as getting the last 'X' posts on main forum index which is also pretty complicated.

Top of the table clash

In the same way that some of the 911 photos are also strangely beautiful .... until you realise the magnitude of what happened. Luckily in Toronto's case, there have been no reported deaths as a direct result of the explosion although one firefighter did die on the scene (sounds like he may have had a seizure or heart attack or something like that) and one plant worker is still (at this time) classified as missing. There will be a lot of **** to hit the fan in coming days, weeks and months not least because of the proximity to housing ... but thats Toronto for you .... There are literally thousands of small industrial units dotted about all over the city and in a lot of cases, they are quite near to housing. Its partly a leagacy from when Toronto's suburbs (who all had their own separate borders and administrations) and the main city of toronto amalgamated into one administrative "mega-city" and partly because Toronto seems to be growing northwards at a phenomenal rate and residential areas are squeezing themselves closer and closer to commercial and industrial zones. I will be interested to hear just how many of those houses were actually there before the propane plant and in turn, how many were there before the industrial area ... not many I would guess. The area of the explosion is in a small western portion of one of the old suburban cities called North York. North York is pretty large and that the area alongside and to the north of the 401 highway is quite heavily industrial with what housing there is being of the low cost variety. There is huge development to the west of there in the HWY400 corridor and to the east of it in the Yonge St corridor. I heard on the radio this morning that the explosion "went as planned" so to speak. The safety rules seemingly dictate the positioning of tanks so that in the event of a catastrophe, any explosion would go North-South instead of East-West and that is exactly what happened !!!! I was canoeing on Saturday and was dead to the world by about 10pm on Saturday night. That scene from Jumanji could have happened in my front room and I would have been none the wiser !

didnt realise it would be interesting to you guys This may give a better view. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/ http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2008/08/10/...e.html?ref=rss http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2008/08/10/...-residents.html We live roughly about 15Km to the east of where this happened and although the missus says she heard/felt the blast around 4am, I slept right through. I would have known all about it if it had happened on a weekday though as they basically shutdown the main highway (which is the busiest one in North America !!!) across Toronto from the airport 15Km to the west of the blast right to the edge of my neighbourhood 15Km to the east (that 30Km stretch is the busiest part of the busiest highway as well !!!).

I try to avoid using IE7 let alone installing IE8 !!! You mean you do not get a window title at the very top of your browser like this ?

The name of the IE/Firefox window shows the name of the thread (minus the secondary description line) ..... and when you hit post it then says "replying in ... <thread name>" Short answer - I doubt it. will investigate though.

We normally receive photos from Gordon Gillespie (home games only), Trevor Martin (H & A games plus other 'bonus' galleries), and Peter Paul (H & A games) but have only been receiving from Gordon since the start of pre-season. We will inquire with Peter and Trevor if there is some reason the photos are not arriving.

Same time last year in same competition (Brewster's first match after returning, Niculae's first goals) http://stats.caleythistleonline.com/matchdetails.php?id=180

BBC seem to have an 'opt-in' policy with regards to IP addresses. They seem to add the main IP addresses from the big providers but there are whole ranges of IPs out there they dont recognise --- do a google search and you will find hundreds if not thousands of similar complaints. I guess they are going on the principle that the smaller providers, or bigger providers who add new IP ranges for things like 3G or mobile internet will contact them to be added rather than devoting their own time, people and money to finding every possible legitimate UK IP address. For once, I think they are approaching it the right way so as I mentioned before, complain to them, and to your ISP and hopefully the BBC will add it. As frustrating as it is for me in my situation, I have to take my hat off to the BBC for the efficiency of their IP blocking. I have tried, tried, and tried various technical methods of bypassing their controls but short of dialling into a UK provider from overseas nothing seems to work. Roll on the day where I can legitimately subscribe to be able to see and/or hear coverage of ICT games on the Internet.

Your IP address earlier today was a 3G / Mobile one - they either dont recognise it or may block it. Your IP now is what I assume is work based and you should be OK, unless work block it. In any event, the only thing to do is to complain to tech support and hope they add the IP as a UK one !!! The BBC are extremely good at blocking coverage to countries / IP ranges and I have yet to find a reliable way around their technology.

BBC probably dont realise your IP address is a 3G uk-based one ! I have the same problem, except I am in Canada so my IP is legitimately non-UK !!! Getting anyone to provide SPL coverage to us poor ex-pats (even Setanta Canada !!!) is

cant see that this topic is serving any purpose really.
