Ok and RTE's coverage of the EL being blocked in the North cannot be reciprocated as the BBC NI and UTV rarely cover any Irish League games live or am I wrong about this?

Just thought I'd get this issue back on topic

C'mon CJ - you can't make rash remarks like 'an insult to Rovers is an insult to all the people of the ROI' and not expect to get pulled-up on it..... ! :D

Doh..the point I was making was that having said you were happy to call it quits , you then went and added a further comment.. I give up.

League Cup Final (CIS Cup) is also now covered live. First Saturday in December.

Cheers David - will whack that in the aul' calendar.

Is that what Institute won through to the other night, or is that a different trophy ?

Stute are in a different cup (the Carnegie cup for what it's worth) final and play Dundela in the final. Something tells me this is unlikely to be on TV.

The CIS cup final will be between Glentoran or Linfield and Cliftonville or Crusaders.

I agree but there is really only one more for senior teams than you have and that is the regional competitions.
