Disaster Index: 2.1 Entry: Rights Retention, Pre-Elimination Cause: BBC extends broadcast rights for Scotland men's internationals until June 2028, securing the infrastructure for future viewership before the current tournament has confirmed there will be a future to view. Category: Administrative Evidence: Deal covers Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland through June 2028. The contract assumes Scotland will continue to play international football. This is the correct assumption. The timing is noted. Historical precedent: Broadcasting arrangements have consistently outlasted the squads that prompted them. Affected parties: Scottish viewers with functioning televisions; the BBC's scheduling department; whoever holds the remote at 02:00 BST. Immediate outlook: The rights are secured. The right to a result is filed separately.
