Lads, does anyone know if the game is going to be on the Internet, like radio commentary or something. I've checked around and can't find anything. Help us exiles, if you can.
Cheers.

Your in the USA, like me, so you have a few options, depending on how much you want to spend, this is in order of quality.
1.) Go to a pub (it would be hard in a small town)
2.) Watch on Setanta Broadband (same as online stream, but probably better quality)
3.) Watch via online stream (http://www.football4less.com/forums/)
4.) RTE sometimes has a radio broadcast live
5.) Watch the next day on a torrent (http://www.fbtz.com/forum/)
6.) Watch the highlights same day (http://www.footballclips.net/forum/)

If you tell me your ZIP code or city, I can tell you pubs in your area

Yeah thanks mate. Believe me, I've got the pubs where I live down pat. I did find one in town that may show it if they get enough people, so I'm in the process of rounding up about 20/30 'drinkers'. We'll see what happens. Thanks for the info all the same. It'll come in handy if the pub doesn't work out.

I doubt it Paddy I was out there for a year and never got to see one game, unless you can find a live streaming of it on the web, there is no Setanta outlets and Super Sport only tend to pick up the England games to satisfy the English Ex-Pat population.
If you try the sports Cafe at the Waterfront they would be the only possible place, if they don't have it nowhere will. Also if it happens to clash with a Currie Cup game forget it!:D

Where abouts in CT are you and do you have any jobs going??

Thanks Endabob, I'll check out the sports cafe. I've also been advised the Dubliner & Rockin Shamrock.

LOL - Only there for a week on business - flying out tonight, staying at the Holiday Inn Waterfront so the sports cafe hould be handy.

Thanks again.

the Dubliner & Rockin Shamrock

They are very plastic Oirish type pubs but you might strike lucky, Just had a look on the super sports (Sky equivalent) web site and they are showing the England game and the Italy game so I don't think you'll get to see it....

Thanks for the tip. Hopefully my bad luck will be balanced out on the pitch!

The match is available to view online on BBC. Not too sure if you need a uk ip address though. There probably is a way of getting it through a proxy or something but I wouldn't have a clue about anything like that.

Trying to order the game on Setanta PPV on the net. I'm in Canada but it won't accept my Irish credit card. Doing my head in! :mad:

Anyone know how to get around this (other than finding someone with a canadian c.c.) or if it will be possible to watch the game on BBC3 feed.

Any help is much appreciated :)
