From todays Indo:
Chorus Sports Channel Has agreed a 4 year deal with the eircom league and the FAI to show non-exclusive highlights of eircom League and FAI cup games.
The deal which runs until 2009 allows chorus, who have 140,000 subscribers, to show highlights from 50 League games per season and deferred coverage of a further 30 matches per season.
That's good news. Wonder how much they paid. Fair play to them showing a desire to show eL football, I mean they're non-exclusive rights and all. Pity I don't have them though. Are they only available in Cork or something?
What the hell is Chorus TV?
How can you not have heard of the fabulous TV station that is Chorus????Formerly known as Multi-Channel (Happy days eh!), it launched the careers of the now world renowned television presenters Trevor Welch and Des Curran!!!!!! :D
Don't they already do this? They show highlights of two games a week as it is.
They serve Munster so show Cork, Cobh, Limerick and Waterford games time to time. Next week should be a great double bill - Cork v Hoops and the Munster derby in Division 1 - Cobh v Limerick.
Are we sad or what. :)

Of course thsi is what we get instead of having free Setanta like the NTL boys. We have to pay €99 for it.
They show some Dublin games too.Quote:

You'll know all about them when they purchase NTl subject to competition authority approval which i don't see as a problem as no cable competition at the moment anyway.Quote:

I'd say they already been doing this coverage already & this just an FAI PR stunt.
