DCFCSteve, is your national broadcaster not BBC?
Jaysus, what was that like? Was your man Ken Early on? I hate that tosser. God forbid he should acknowledge Irish football (not the international game) for all of 5 seconds. Twilight Zone stuff I'm sure...
I presume they had Dan McDonnell talking, he's the only person they use that I'd trust to cover LOI properly. The rest of the time, their coverage is an embarrassment. Although I hardly ever listen anymore - I hate the show, can you tell? :D
It was a genuine question. Officially who does your licence money go to?
Speaking of embarrassing, just have a read over your email again there, actually the thread in general. Although it must be said that the outrage shown is pretty f*cking hilarious too.
Even the RTE match report could have been written by someone with a general knowledge of the LOI and the times of the goalscorers: http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2009/0806/stpats.html
I take it they had noone out there...
No Irish journalist there of any description apparently. :( Well there were photographers there obviously, but not sure if they were Irish or just locally-based.
All I want to see is Fabio's goal. A Samara fan posted up his video phone footage of the first goal, but his battery ran out, so we're reduced to imagining what it could be like. Even a still shot of the ball in the net would do me at this stage! :o
Ok, don't look at these as separate images; scroll your webpage up and down really quickly until it looks as though the ball is moving into the net;

No? Oh man, this is going as badly as my Penumbral Lunar Eclipse Thread... http://www.gamedip.com/gamesUpload/1152759505.jpg
this should have been in the news itself let alone the sports news.
Who says I pay one.... :)
RTE is the Irish national broadcaster. I am an Irish national. Therefore, RTE is my national broadcaster. There's not a lot to grasp here, so please at least try.
It's late, I'm tired, and you're boring me.
So read it yourself sweetheart... :D
TBF, it was the lead story on the sports bit of 6.1, and i don't think the 9 O' clock news actually has a sports segment usually - the Liverpool/ Dunmanway story was there as a human interest/ colour piece part of the news proper, not as sport news.
OK, you've dodged the question twice now so i'll ask again. Who do you pay your licence fee to?
I have and you know what, it's just as embarrassing as it was last night, with yourself as the main protagonist.Quote:

I've given up emailing them.I did it a few times and use to get a standard reply every time along the lines of "we have read your email but we dont care,now pi** off".Not quite as colourfull as that though.Then they stopped responding altogether.RTE DO read these threads as was evident from the last thread about them not showing the Bohs Salzburg game.
If Pats dont draw a big club i wonder will RTE bother even sending a camera to the home leg???
I was raging watching the 9 o'clock news. Like most other people I tuned in to see the report on the Pats and Derry games only to see Liverpool's academy side play a west Cork pub team.
It sums up all that is wrong withthis country when 10,000 attend ****e like this and senior clubs across the country are struggling to get a couple of thousand.
I was following the Derry game on Errortel and was delighted to see that Derry had gone one up. That was until five minutes later they decided it was actually CSKA that had scored. Top notch stuff from RTE as usual. :rolleyes:
