    Ferranti/Meadowbank/Livingston capitalist larceny

    Thus far, I have put money into the bare cash boxes of Ross County, St Mirren, Accies, Viking, and Sporting. At various times this has cost £15, £12.50, and £9.99. All reasonable.

    The chameleon-like franchise operating out of its latest squat in Livingston, however, can **** off. Twenty quid for a poorly-produced, behind-the-play footage is out of order, and is, if one was cruel enough to mention it, in keeping with their employment of felons in senior club positions.

    I hope your makky-on Lego club gets relegated.

    “How much is PPV for games at the Tony Macaroni Arena?

    Our PPV price will be: £20.00.

    We, as a club, felt that we had to protect the value of our season tickets which are purchased year after year by our loyal supporters. The only way to ensure this, was to make the PPV more expensive per game, than what the season tickets work out at per game. We also had to take into account that families will now be buying one ‘single’ ticket rather than potentially 3 or 4. In addition to this, we had to consider the very real possibility that friends will group together to watch the stream, further reducing the revenue the club would had received if fans were in the stadium. We feel that this is a fair value as it is still cheaper than what would be paid for a walk-up ticket if fans were in the stadium.”

    **** OFF.

    That’s a disgraceful price to charge to watch the pish that is on display most weeks in that horrendous plastic fake pitch.

    I do normally buy these streams. But £20 FFS.

    Yep - this.

    With the other options available, there really is no need to pay for anything online.

    Each to their own and if you want to chip into other clubs coffers then fair enough - but I’ll keep my cash for my own club just now.

    £20 is beyond ridiculous though - can’t believe they will be getting much take up at all for any games and rightly so...

    Fitba is rapidly becoming a TV sport.

    VAR is the final nail in the coffin of the game we loved.

    Sounds like a scam, I'm far from convinced that they have any season ticket holders to protect

    VAR is a good thing.
    Nothing wrong with the technology.
    It’s how it’s applied is the problem.

    If we could get people who have a modicum of understanding of football to apply common sense, then we may get somewhere.

    It’s like the professional foul, brought into the game to curtail players just blatantly wiping out an opponent with no intention ‘ attempt to win the ball. If the ref could assess that it was a genuine attempt, then that should be part of the game.
