Sky Sports produce green backdrop to avoid van Bronckhorst cover up
Sky Sports put a more professional look on their coverage of Giovanni van Bronckhorst yesterday.
Last Saturday the broadcaster was made to look very amateurish when they used white tape to cover up the cinch logo in backing boards used to interview the Dutchman due to a dispute between the Ibrox club and the SPFL.
After 35 rounds of fixtures there is still no sign of any punishment or sanctions for blanking out the sponsor that has had exposure and promotion at 41 other SPFL clubs.

There was no need for tape yesterday as Sky found a plain green background before and after the match for their coverage.
Sky Sports won’t be showing any more live matches involving the club from Ibrox but going on Neil Doncaster’s past record the dispute could run on into next season with cinch having taped up evidence that the SPFL have failed to deliver on the contract signed off.
