The deal which still requires SKY to show 15 Rangers games a season so the smaller pot will be split between more teams, and you still think that is a good deal?
SKY have offered a new deal which looks to be the same less rangers slice of the proposed (with rangers) deal. Roughly the same as just now.
The "let's go down to division 3 and watch scottish football implode" idea looks to be brown brogue shooting of the greatest magnitute.

THE collapse of Rangers has cost the SPL a massive £17million from one TV
deal alone......
So, with SPL chief executive Neil Doncaster and Celtic chief Peter Lawwell, who led the negotiating team, having agreed a new package worth just less than £13m a year the amount to be spread among the 12 top clubs is actually only around £10m a year for the next three years.
For the remaining two years of the deal the figure will be closer to £11m, although there will be clauses in the new agreement which will allow for an increase should Rangers win promotion every season for the next three.

Aren't we supposed to refer to them by their newco name "The Rangers Football Club Limited" now?

The club is still called Rangers, only the holding company has changed.

So who was playing (almost getting pumped) tonight, Celtic FC or Celtic Plc?
