I don't think it's a question of whether or not Sky wants to cover the SPL, but Sky doesn't need the SPL; the SPL needs them.
"A degree of renegotiation" is a very polite way of saying the SPL is about to get bent over the table and forced to take a severe slash in revenue.
It's time for Celtic to abandon ship and gtfo asap. I'd be pushing pretty damn hard to get into the English Championship right about now, and seriously considering life in League One. Short term pain with a far greater potential for long term gain.
yep lets push for the exact same thing that we are dead set against happening with rangers united.

Sky make fortunes out of Scottish football, thru tv packages and Skybet on the games. they also need SPL to fill the ****ty time slots and get this, they are not the only player in the market for TV deals.
SPL tv has been talked about also.
a talented negotiator should be able to help keep the drop in value from Sky to a minimum.

i know this sounds harsh, but if clubs cannot afford the loss of rangers then that is their own fault for piggy backing their financial future on a shambolic outfit such as the huns. seriously, does that **** make any sense to you? cos i know it doesn't to me.
also what do these clubs do when they get relegated? relegation has happened almost them all and none, yes NONE have went to the wall because of relegation.
