Broadcasted to many nations - yes. At about 3am with no viewers. Still though, that more than nothing. I suppose this definately makes them bigger than Bohs ehh!

Sure does. :D
13/07: Futbol Mundial: 22.00 SS1
14/07: Futbol Mundial: 19.00 SS1
20/07: Futbol Mundial: 17.30 SSX
20/07: Futbol Mundial: 23.30 SS1
Does that look like 3am with no viewers to you?? And that's just the broadcast schedules in the UK and Ireland alone. We will get a sizeable worldwide audience. Bohs however, are content to be going nowhere in their own division. ;)

Galway united were on that also when Nick Leeson arrived. They spent the evening taking interviews and covering the match only to show about 4 or 5 minutes of an interview with nick and the goal we scored, was very disappointed with it in the end.

Rubbish magazine style football show showing random nits from around the world. Could interview Zidane one bit and show an army team in Burkino Faso next.
Watch it the odd time if its on when i get home from work, its only an ok programme IMO, dont expect us to get much out of it to be honest.
Still nice to be asked to be part of it though.

So they are showing clips from the Rovers game tonight (V Finn Harps) they would have been better off showing their game against the Gypos even though it's a couple of weeks down the line...........

Good to see the Smaller teams getting a bit of coverage. why have they decided to show a non-descript first division club though? Obviously they won't show the cup game because they dont want to show the feature Club being slaughtered

you are dead right block. FIFA are wrong to be interested in telling the world about a successful fans takeover in face of the odds.
they should feature a club who:
-are selling their stadium to pay day to day bills
-cant afford to sack an incompetent manager
-fans have attacked and threatened board members
-have security armed with batons at home games to deal with the above point
-have a hooligan gang who are tolerated and defended by the club
-are scratching around the bottom of the table despite having multiples of the budget of those around them.
must be great to be a bozo.
Remind you of any club last season? (although insert have no stadium where selling ther stadium is)
BTW Nice press release by Rovers.

-Have a stadium to sell to pay day to day bills, invest in a youth acadamy and become the richest team in the country.
-Board refuse to sign an incompetant manager
-Pot Kettle situation here.
-At least we deal with our problem
-Not true, the hooligan gang are being rooted out, 30 people have been banned and names and photos being provided to other clubs, again at least we are dealing with our problem. How long have you had a hooligan problem for? What have you done about it?
-No arguement with the last one other than the fact that you can hardly talk after being RELEGATED last year with a manager that won the double at Bohs! :p

"Set to become a household name"?? Already a household name. They contacted the club to do a piece so its free advertising.
