John Byrne's Eircom League Focus

[thecorner]

anyone else notice the bias towards dublin clubs on this aertel page

[Colm]

Yeah but it's hardly surprising considering the guys a massive Rovers fan. I think he's actually a member of the SRFC Ultras.

surprise surprise so to see him slating the media over the bad coverage they gave the rovers fans because of the bohs game

I know he's an Ultras member, but the slating he's given the Herald echoes the sentiments shared by a lot on here, not just Rovers fans.
I agree there's a definite Dublin focus in his stuff, but I'm glad to put up with it, it's certainly a step in the right direction by RTE.

To be fair, it's a lot better then what we used to get on aertel.....nothing.
As for the Dublin bias, that can be partly explained by the fact that most of the clubs in the top division are from Dublin or it's suburbs.

he wasn't the only one. it was disgraceful. fair play to aertel for giving him the chance and well done john for what he's written, some very good pieces
