Both
SPL title deciders live on 麻豆社 Scotland
麻豆社
Scotland will broadcast both Old Firm Bank of Scotland SPL title
matches live this Sunday as the race for the championship is finally
settled 聳 allowing fans to follow the fortunes of either of
the title challengers as the championship goes down to the wire
in the final game of the season.
麻豆社
ONE Scotland will show leaders Rangers take on Dunfermline
at Ibrox while 麻豆社 TWO Scotland will broadcast the Kilmarnock
v Celtic match from Rugby Park.
The
Glasgow rivals will both attempt to win three points 聳 but
also score as many goals as possible in anticipation that the title
race could be decided by goal difference or even the number of goals
scored.
The
move to show both games 聳 which also will be broadcast live
on Radio Scotland - has been welcomed by 麻豆社 Scotland's Head
of Programmes Ken MacQuarrie.
He
held talks with the SPL yesterday (Monday 19 May 2003) to ensure
fans have a choice of watching either game as the two go head to
head in the closest title race in years.
"We
initially secured the rights to show 38 live games this season but
extending this by one match allows us to follow all the action as
it happens on the final day of the season," said MacQuarrie.
"Added
to our Scottish Cup games, UEFA Cup encounters including the final
in Seville and Scotland international matches, this proves that
the national broadcaster is at the heart of Scotland's national
game."
Next
weekend's Tennents Scottish Cup Final between Rangers and
Dundee will take the number of live Scottish matches shown on 麻豆社
Scotland to 54, with an incredible 88% of the population tuning
in at some point over the season.
Bank
of Scotland Scottish Premierleague Director of Marketing Stewart
Thomson also welcomed the decision to screen both games: "This
is fantastic news for supporters of the Old Firm and football fans
throughout the country.
"It's
a gripping conclusion to a tremendous SPL season and it's fitting
that both matches will be seen by hundreds of thousands of fans
throughout Scotland."
