Chief Executive of Scottish Rugby, Gordon McKie, said: For several months we have been working flat out to find a solution to having Saturday’s crucial Argentina v Scotland match broadcast live in the UK in an effort to allow our many supporters to watch this important game. Unfortunately, there has been virtually no meaningful interest from any terrestrial and satellite/cable broadcasters in televising this weekend’s game and this was the only option remaining. We will be in discussion with all broadcasters early next week to try and bring about televised coverage for the second test on 14 June.
