The Celtic support will once again have to fork out for PPV to watch tonight’s important Premiership clash away to Aberdeen.
As my colleague John told you a few days ago, the Dons are offering tonight’s match to Celtic fans for £13.99.
This is after the league’s main broadcaster Sky Sports decided not to show the game.
This is the sixth time this season the broadcasters have chosen not to show a Celtic away match, with supporters already forced to pay money to Livingston, Motherwell, Hibernian, Ross County and St. Mirren this campaign.
Any Celtic fan who has paid for all six of those matches will have forked out a grand total of £91.97 on top of any TV bills.
Thankfully some good news is on the horizon.
Celtic fans shouldn’t have to fork out for PPV again this season
A look at Celtic’s upcoming away fixtures and Sky’s match selections suggests that tonight’s clash should be the last PPV outing of the season.

The Hoops will then have two away matches post split – and given the likely nature of the title race at that stage – you would doubt that even Sky would want to miss out on any of that action.
Who those two away fixtures are against is an issue that still needs to be sorted.
Hearts and Rangers are pretty much guaranteed to be in the top six – and we would be due to face them both at Celtic Park.
So it may be a visit to Tannadice and a third trip to Easter Road or Fir Park that completes the lot.
