Booking £20m from TV rights in China over 10 years is a remarkable deal for the SPFL, it shows a lot of faith from broadcaster, PPLive, who have the responsibility to foster the league in the world’s most populous country. The cash will be beer money to Celtic but represents a substantial income for most of the Premiership.
The deal opens the door for Celtic to follow-through, the only club with the wherewithal to exploit the merchandising, scouting and recruitment opportunities there. We’ve seen strategies developed in Mexico, India and now China, while the European football-tourist market is also now being targeted through online partners.
None of this will put the ball in the Ajax net tomorrow night but it is important nonetheless.
Delighted we’re at Tynecastle in the fourth round of the Scottish Cup. Hearts players found the will to live against Hibs last week but they have little more than effort to their game. Should be a cracking tie, which will not be subject to the performance vagaries of a home tie with Morton.

oops meant to say the album I so gently dusted was
Sixto Rodriguez. Cold Fact WHAT A SINGER’
and when I listened to Sugar Man I realised how peeps could have been duped by Perfect Day by Lewis.
Heard NFL had a cyst removed, hence post-op swelling and bruising.

Have you seen the documentary film about him,”Searching for Sugarman”?
I once met NFL in the Hilton Hotel prior to a game with Mrs SMQUC, and he could barely string a sentence together as he spluttered to me he had an abscess.

angelgabriel , maybe see you there then – i’m on the table at 9:15 for about 80-90 mins – quietest time of the week for me – don’t tell Mrs Sanna.
TTTT , was hoping for 300 before the big 5-0 – will take me a wee while longer – might get a tat (TKF obi) and a bike to complete the mid-life crisis .

The Clique committee would like it be known that their was no dispute between Saint Neil and Big Dolph. We are making no comment on the alleged fall out with our Greek God though.
Ach maybe im being over protective of NFL.
But I once took it very hard one morning when Kev insulted Neil
I asked for a public apology, im still waiting.
But HEY WE ARE ALL TIMS YES?

Neil also referred to Chick as a boil, but not on the gum!!
Embdy into making kit model cars and bikes ?
I have loads that I need to get shot of, cheap to Tims as ever.
All new and in their boxes, some are rare and would cost you a serious amount of money if you were to pay the real price.

If interested.

@Shoulder
Ive not experienced a “superiority culture” on here
just a lot of tims with different ways of expressing themselves.
Take tomorrow night for example When Cellic score my big mate Dan
will hug anybody,even George who spends most of the game slagging JF.
I will hug Jamie who says he hates Sammy.Billy will climb the wall and thank the lord
even tho before the game starts he questions every team selection.
It’s great bein a tim H.H.
Good grief, BBC 1 right now there’s a film on made by Sevco TV, for Sevcotrons about Sevconians.
Thankfully its well past the watershed.
