Default What do the English / Scots think of football across the Border?

Seeing as the BBC / Sky / Whoever cover all 3 of Britain's league's, does anyone actually care about what's going on outside their "own" league?

I notice that the English BBC seems to try and give Scottish football a reasonable amount of coverage, but I don't think that BBC Scotland return the favour, being very "oop north" I can get both channels.

So do you think that showing the football results from across the border is a total waste of airtime?

Got to admit, generally only watch the premiership matches including PPV.
Not that interested in Scotish footie as, we all know, there are only 2 big teams that have any chance of cutting it

I have no interest whatsoever in Scottish/Welsh/Irish football. Couldn't even tell you who is top of the SPL at the minute.

Don't bother much with the Coca Cola Championship or League 1 or whatever they are called now either.

I do watch the Premiership and Spanish football on Sky tho.

I've noticed that 'English' BBC coverage of Scottish games has lessened somewhat since they got premiership coverage back though. Kinda gives the impression that they were only showing it because it was all that was left on the shelf at the time I personally couldn't give a rat's chuff about what the savages get up to, so long as they stay north of the wall
