Echo that. They may well be planning too anyway - most of their sport shows podcast now - Sport at Seven and Sunday Sport certainly do, with additional content in Sport at Seven's case.

EDIT - Was searching for a show email addy, and came across this...

Actually just noticed on zencast that it came through as part of the sport at seven subscription.

**Macy** · 09/03/2010, 12:54 PM

Listened to it over lunch, it was good for a first episode, not sure I'll be giving up my devotion to the big rooster a la Marty, but it was good all the same.

The only concern I would have does this give them an excuse to bump the League off the weekend sport shows? And it probably won't get much on Sport at Seven either now. As an extra it's great, as a replacement for the mainstream it further marginalises the League.

**Pauro 76** · 09/03/2010, 8:33 PM

Going to listen to the podcast at work tomorrow, a great way to keep up with what's happening..

**Dodge** · 27/09/2010, 8:20 PM

My itunes just downloaded it. Is there a problem with it (don't have time to listen)

**holidaysong** · 27/09/2010, 9:58 PM

The podcast is up alright but it wasn't on RTÉ Radio 1 Extra like it usually is.

Sadly yes. I'm sure we are in our second season without LoI coverage on Friday Sportsnight at this stage. Fantastic programme and I really miss it. Thankfully there are a few more televised games and streams available to keep in touch but those 3 hours on Friday night were excellent.

Listened to the show last night and It was very disappointing. The first trophy of the season is given out and all it got was 4 minutes at the end of the show. And even then they didnt really talk about the game. Shams Galway game got nearly half the show ffs.

**Dodge** · 29/09/2010, 9:17 AM

Thats because "Shams Galway" in the league is 10 times more important than the league cup. Which btw isn't the first trophy to be handed out this season... (and that trophy got 3/4 minutes too back in may)

Before anyone starts I'm not trying to knock Sligo's win. Fair play to them. However for most of the top 5 teams, including themselves, it was at best 4th in their priorities.
