Virtual season tickets approved

[Handsome_Devil]

The Sky statement seems to make it clear the streaming is available to "season ticket holders to watch all home games". So maybe no need for debate after all, other than whether those of us abroad can still watch away games as before.

There are several strands of questioning here:

HOME GAMES

1. Motherwell TV: If we have a season ticket, the game is behind closed doors, and this is not one of Sky's 48 games, do we get to watch this game through Motherwell TV for no cost other than the season ticket already paid for?

2. Sky TV: If we have a season ticket, the game is behind closed doors, and this is one of Sky's 48 games, do we need a Sky TV package to watch this game as Sky would no doubt ban the club from broadcasting this through Motherwell TV to UK viewers? If yes, we would be paying twice for the same thing and, therefore, my Well season ticket alone would not let me watch all Well games that are behind closed doors.

AWAY GAMES

3. If the game is behind closed doors and on Rangers TV (for example), instead of visiting Ibrox, will Rangers (for example) allow Away fans to buy a single game ticket to watch online?

4. If the game is behind closed doors and this is one of Sky TV's 48 games, I imagine the only way Away fans could watch this game would be as normal through a Sky TV subscription. If so, this is discriminatory, as it means that when an Away game is behind closed doors and on Sky, the only way an Away fan can watch it is to purchase a Sky subscription, or will they do single game packages?

Happy to be corrected if I'm wrong on any of my assumptions as I may not have read everything released on this clear-as-mud scenario.

Can anyone answer these questions?

Good questions. I think your clear-as-mud phrase sums it up. In fairness, the news of virtual spectators arrived this morning so we can give the powers at be some time to figure out the detail.

Overseas we’ve been able to view all games home and away with a MotherwellTV season ticket — except for the few games away from home where the opposition only allows audio.
This has been regardless of any games live on TV, although that might explain why they commentary is sometimes provided with bias favoring the opposition.
