[Haugh Aye]

Does the 12.00 kick off v Saint Johnston mean its on TV?  I cannot believe TV want to show that again, borefest!!

[TopSix]

What a farce this is waiting on the fixtures in terms of booking train travel - especially for fans who have to travel to Inverness for home matches. SPHell.

[CELTIC1CALEY3]

Five very tough fixtures. We should pick up cash from the first game that will be televised. Hopefully the out of contract players will now be signed up fairly soon. Antonio, rip up the pre contract with Killie!!

Dont think we get any extra cash from TV coverage of league games ... its all part of the overall prize fund. only cup games where we get a windfall.

 

Finishing second though should be a huge priority as the league is still setup to reward the top two teams with the lions share of the cash !!!

 

not sure if it is exactly the same but it used to break down like this .... 4% went to every club (48% total) the remaining 52% was split based on finishing posittion

 

01 = 4% + 13% = 17%

02 = 4% + 11% = 15%

03 = 4% + 5.5% = 9.5%

04 = 4% + 4.5% = 8.5%

05 = 4% + 4.0% = 8.0%

06 = 4% + 3.5% = 7.5%

07 = 4% + 3.0% = 7.0%

08 = 4% + 2.5% = 6.5%

09 = 4% + 2.0% = 6.0%

10 = 4% + 1.5% = 5.5%

11 = 4% + 1.0% = 5.0%

12 = 4% + 0.5% = 4.5% (+ parachute payments)

 

same info still on SPL website dated 2009 ./.... http://www.scotprem.com/content/default.asp?page=s2&newsid=7618&back=home

Scotty this was posted on SPL twitter with TV games.

cheers .... could have saved a lot of typing if I just waited 10 minutes

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Surely Alba must be considering one of our home games ?!!

[Renegade]

I wonder if the final Highland Derby will be on Alba then (or some other channel)?

Edited April 9, 2013 by Renegade

[bishbashbosh]

could we have got a worse draw of games.

 

celtic going all out in first game to beat us to secure championship assuming motherwell win the day before.

 

celtic then field squad players for remainder of games giving advantage to other teams to pick up points.

 

highland derby possibly with nothing to play for. or worse case scenario our whole season eg european place to be decided in dingwall.

I doubt Neil Lennon sees it like that, at least I hope not.  Either way third is ours to lose and second is still there to  be won. Believe!

I'm all geared up for an early summer trip to the sand pit

Happy with the fixtures, other than the Celtic game clashing with the Kilt Walk. The Highland March will go to Dingwall via Beauly, Cannich, Glen Affric, Kintail, Kyle (over the bridge into Skye and back) Plockton and then back through Wester and Easter Ross into Dingwall. Should be around 130 miles so a bit shorter than last few years but a heck of a lot of off road climbing to make up for it!

[tm4tj]

Good enough set of fixtures.  No matter who you draw it's going to be tough, after all it's what we have been looking for over the last few years.  Get the Celtic game out of the way and the rest are winnable, unfortunately they are also loseable, that's the nature of the beast. Anything we can take from Parkhead is a bonus and the final three games are all localish.

 

Let's make a big effort to get to Perth and sort out those farmers.
