    It was on BBC news last night, heard about the possibility a couple of weeks ago.

    The new Premier League deal will kill them off as they only have 23 games - not going to entice subscribers with that.

    Thank goodness ESPN bought the NASN channel, hopefully that will be ok and the other stuff will get picked up by Sky anyway.

    Worrying about the SPL clubs though, could be another ITV Digital fiasco.

    There are SPL teams collectively owed in the region of £3million. It was said on the BBC that this would result in one of them going under.

    Scottish clubs learned very little from the ITV Digital fiasco then if they budgeted for money they have yet to recieve.

    It's not a lot of money though really

    Nearly half of the £3m is owed to celtic and rangers and lets be fair, they can afford it. Only about 4 clubs are owed more than £200k and the likes of inverness are only owed 70k.
