Some people on here have short memories.
With 2 highland teams in the SPL it would bring another derby into the sights of TV execs generating more income, more advertising, a general football buzz around the area creating more new fans for both teams.
Why would a ICT vs Ross County derby in the SPL be any more appealing than say Motherwell v Hamilton from last season. ICT and Ross county are diddy teams when all is sed and done...with VERY limited appeal..so why people think it would be so appealing outwith the 6000 or so that would turn up for the game, is beyond me
Motherwell/Hamilton are 2 different sized clubs with Motherwell generally winning these games
ICT/County arte both similar sized clubs with a fairly even recent record against each other
It's something new and that will always be attractive to TV audiences
It could stem the flow of future generations heading south to watch Jedward
Agreed
