British Television

Genuinely no broadcaster in any level of football had thought of giving commentary jobs to owners of one of the teams involved.

Until Sky came in and do just that. The altcast - which was on SS Football while the main telecast was on SS Main Event - went as well as expected.

I’m not surprised - we do it all the time in Australian sport.

Fox has Matty Johns and Gorden Tallis on their telecasts, they partially own the Titans.
Nine had Eddie McGuire when he was president of the Magpies.
Nine and Seven have commentators who have roles in various NRL and AFL clubs - namely Gus Gould with his role at the Bulldogs.

Just merge with ITV plc and walk away STV shareholders. It’s going to happen, let it happen.

I tend to agree. Aside from news output, it’s just ITV with a different brand. Let them merge and brand it ITV Scotland and be done with it.
