Are the extended interviews missing from the website this week?

Thought it was a great show again. Raider of Lost Archive was good, dunno how it was given but still good, good crowds at it. 60 secs was good as well i thought.

The Cup Draw was good as well, no piece on 'the lads a bit special' on some other young talent. I think its a good feature that shows whats there in the league. Pundits were good, informative.

Personally, think the show is already going downhill. Like TV3, there's too much emphasis on analysis and interviews, too many competitions, and not enough match highlights. You could replace all that with extended highlights of pd games, and some first division coverage. The emphasis should be on the games themselves, and less on debate. People can analyse games themselves.

Still too much talking and not enough highlights unfortunately.

Are you deecay in disguise?

I was surprised that Dundalk won a peno for that "foul" in the cup final.

Me and 17,000 other Derry fans plus even the Dundalk fans were dumbfounded.

Ref's......some things never change.

Lads, to be fair, it wont change unless you email them and let them know. And i'm being serious, they cant guess what you're thinknig.

there isnt to much talking atal. i think the highlights are about right. the lads fashion sense on tv is cat though. bloody hell. and was it just me or when mick leech drew number 9 i think it was it said 2 when he showed it to the camers ??? did anyone else notice this or am i wrong ?

I sent them in footage of two incidents from the Dundalk vs Athlone match in the hope that they might chat about it if they were going criticising referees again but alas they didnt show them

Two incidents are penalty decisions and are from 4 mins on in this clip from DFCTV

More I look at them the more I wonder what are the rules

Good week for quality goals. I suppose it helped that teams with most goals playing bottom sides.

you're wrong. i thought the same at first but there's a line under 6 and 9 to distinguish which is which. that's why it kinda looked like a 2

I thought that too, and my heart leapt because '2' is always Bohs, but it was a 9 with a line under it to distinguish it from a 6 -
like this 9

Given that it is a few dyas after the game I think the highlights are probably enough. Obviously I'd love to see first division highlights but do accept that the premier division takes priority.

While everyone will want more highlights of their own club I like the features and analysis better than more extended highlights. A few controversial interviews would be nice too - maybe MNS can offer to pay the fines. :D

oh ok, looked dodgy at the time ! in the pats highlights didnt fahey again look on another planet. savage player. and what was pat morley on about when he said quigley was amazing. did he get him mixed up with fahey ? now quigley is good but in the highlights we saw only showed his goal which was good tho.

What are the ratings like for this lads? Have to confess that I don't watch it so can't give my two cents about the shows quality but I was wondering what kind of figures it draws. Traditionally Monday nights on RTE 2 tend to get good ratings and I'd be worried about it moving back to the graveyard slot if it wasn't making an impression

FD Highlight's should be shown, But only the big matches, such as Waterford - Shels last week and the upcoming Dundalk - Shels match.

The Preimer has to 1st and that's the way it should be but a sprinkle of the top game's from the FD would eb nice.

Considering Rovers Cobh provided no highlights, I thought they did a good job of squeezing a minute out of it. With Boez not playing either, there wasn't a whole lot of action this week for an hour..

I think there could be occasional highlights of a top First Division game - Shels v Dundalk for example.

Footage v chat ratio is about right - but they could show the odd goal/incident again in the discussion to illustrate the points they're making.

Generally, RTE deserve a lot of credit for MNS.

Thought the 60 was brilliant tonight , they definitely did their homework asking Conor Meade about Stephen Ireland.

I thought the exact same thing. It looked like a 2 but thought I was imagining things...
