The latest Scottish Premiership TV selections for October and November have been announced by Sky Sports on Thursday afternoon.
Sky Sports will be the only broadcaster to offer live coverage of the top tier of Scottish football, with up to 48 games available.
15 fixtures have been played out so far, with the most common scoreline being 1-0. Two other games were scheduled to coverage, however they were postponed due to squad members at Aberdeen and Celtic getting coronavirus.
As we know already, Eilidh Barbour has been presenting the coverage, replacing Hayley McQueen on BT Sport as she initially brought in to cover Hayley during her maternity leave, though has impressed so much that she’s got the job permanently.
The refreshed lineup for the Sky Sports Scottish Premier team includes analyst Kris Boyd, James McFadden, former Rangers, St Johnstone and Kilmarnock striker Ally McCoist, former Scotland and Man Utd midfielder Darren Fletcher, and former Celtic striker John Hartson.
Fletcher is being described by fans as a bizarre inclusion to the Sky Sports Scottish pundit team, considering Darren played his whole career in England.
The commentary box will be the much experienced Ian Crocker along with former footballer Andy Walker, who was once criticised by Celtic captain Scott Brown, labelling him a “poor man’s Gary Neville” in May 2016.
Don’t forget, Sky Sports are showing every Saturday goal first on Sky Sports News at 6pm each weekend.
