Has helicopter Sunday been on these Sportcene re-runs?

[greigsdestiny]

Noticed it was club football the first few wks (fri & sun) but now it’s switched to internationals from yesteryear but don’t know if I missed the biggest one of the lot from recent times, the 2005 classic

 

[rangeral]

No

It was scheduled then withdrawn a couple of weeks ago

 

[Kris1872]

Nope. It was due to be on but for some reason it was replaced.

 

[Metalhead1965]

Fingers crossed it get shown

 

[RabWATP]

Couldn't bare to show that the most unlikely of titles can be won against all odds as it may contradict some events that have taken place recently is my guess... CUNTS

 

[Kaba]

Weird that it was pulled

BBC didn't have coverage of Helicopter Sunday. The rights sat with Setanta & STV at the time

 

[rangeral]

It might be the simple case of the rights

Setanta had the main live contract but can't remember if BBC or STV had the terrestrial highlights package

 

[Speminalium8]

Likely the mhanks would all be in therapy again if there was even a possibility of them having to relive that. My guess is that the BBC Sports department are so consumed with Rangers hatred they decided to pull it.

 

[HamiltonJungleBear]

Guess the usual suspects are back off furlough at the BBC’s csc.

 

[ShootYouDown]

Ironically,it was meant to have been shown the week the filth got given the title. As mentioned above,just shows that strange things can happen in football. Better not show it.....maybe people will forget.

 

[superallythe2nd]

Not to back the BBC up but did think it was strange to see it scheduled in the first place as STV had the terrestrial highlight package at the time.

 

[Pennine Walk]

It destroyed them as human beings, we are now left with the foaming mouthed bheasts who snarl at everything Rangers.
No way will it be shown.

Well why advertise it in the first place then pull it with no explanation..?

I have to admit that I was surprised when I first read on here that the BBC was going to show the games as they panned out on that day. My memory of the Easter Road commentary was that it was done by Gerry McNee and that he did not work for the BBC.

Setanta and STV had the TV rights. Radio Clyde didn't have the radio rights but still produced the most memorable commentary.

 

[The Submariner]

It would be great to have Us V Hibs on one channel and them V Motherwell on another....Relive it all.....

 

[Blueranger45]

it was due to be shown on Friday 22nd May which would have been 15 years after it happened, it's quite obvious that somebody pulled the plug because their heroes had been "given" a title a few days before and they couldn't show something where a title looks unwinnable and then is won by the team that nobody gave a chance to

it's Euro 92 next weekend so I expect the club stuff other than probably a random scum cup win has probably gone

 

[Beer Belly Loyal]

Look at shagger.

 

[OohAhHuistra]

No

Yeah they played Scotland vs Holland instead

 

[stein and johnston]

If I’m right, it got pulled in the week when they were handed their zoom tainted title..
