Irish TV only jumps on the band wagon after they start winning.

Well there is a very important international between Argentina and Australia to cover :rolleyes:

RTE,the company itself is the best comedy they could ever produce

I suppose it has something to do with the Belgian tv rights, its still disappointing though! Fair play, Bohs are 1 up last I heard!

Hardly if Bohs are at home...?

Hey, you can always watch Australia v. Argentina live on RTÉ in smoe meaningless competition no-one really cares about... Though I suppose the same probably applies to the InterToto!

Dolan keeps going on about how much coverage this league needs and there he is with his fat hole, sitting in the RTE studios talking about ****ing Argies v Aussies!! W-anker :mad:

'Yes. In Belgium.'

What station is it on? Surely some pubs can get it :confused:

IMO 1st round of Inter Toto probably doesn't warrant tv coverage. Same could probably be said for 2nd round as small team in that too. I think if Bohs get to 3rd round are entitled to expect Valencia game on tv.

Sorry Cosmo. Didn't mean that literally.
I would assume that most countries would give a domestic team in European competition more of a lash on the schedule than our bunch of post-colonials, but it's just speculation. I'm sure there's a Belgian Dunphy and O'Herlihy, and Belgians may be busy drooling over French or Spanish football ...

Here (www.tv4all.com) it might work.

Don't know if I agree, to be honest. Gent aren't a bad side - certainly bigger than anyone in, say, the First Round of the Champions' League (don't forget, Shels v. Hibs of Malta was shown live a few years ago). Bohs were in form and an upset was to be expected. Instead, RTÉ showed Australia v. Argentina in some meaningless competition - does this warrant TV coverage?

The last three years (possible four now), eL clubs have gotten through the First Round of the InterToto, always beating better clubs (Bohs beating Gent in the First Leg this year anyway, Cork beating Malmö, Rovers beating Odra and Pat's beating Rijeka). I think this trend justifies TV coverage over a Confederations Cup tie at least.

All European games need to be shown live imo, it's Europe that really gets people interested in the league and I'd say the ratings for that match would have been better than say, Shels v Derry or something like that. Gent are a relatively well known side.

To the best of my knowledge the Belgian league is shown on Eurogoals on Eurosport.Also i think they have a good European history.

Gent fan on Bohs MB says the return leg will not be on television.
When is someone going to market a podcasting videocam? :mad:
