    Does anyone have any idea when Sky/ESPN announce the early live games.
    I have to arrange a trip to Donegal for a few days and need to know if they are switching the Hibs game to Sunday before i finalise my travel plans. Can't miss going to the first game of the season..

    Dundee United v Kilmarnock game has been switched to the Sunday on the first weekend. Suspect that our game v Hibs will be lunchtime kick-off.

    I can almost guarantee that our game against Hibs will be on the Saturday at 12:30/12:45. The Dundee Utd vs Kilmarnock game is on the Sunday so that clears the space for us to kick-off the new season.

    The Rangers game will be shown live that weekend as well, so theres a chance they will take the Saturday slot.

    It's not normal for Celtic or Rangers home games to be shown before the split, unless it's an OF game.

    Not normally, but they will be unfurling some sort of flag that day, so i assume that they will feel obliged to show it.

    That was only in the Setanta days that the champions first game would be shown at home. I always remember a 0-0 draw with St Mirren on our first game a few seasons ago live on Setanta. Since Sky took the reigns they seem not to have bothered.

    That sounds promising Keane, but i had a look at the Sky calendar yesterday and they have an SPL game scheduled for both Saturday and Sunday.
