No, but all of the episodes will be there in HD as well as all Ireland matches at the Euros so it would probably just be easier to sign up and not deal with this for all four parts.Quote:

any chance someone could pm me an invite? many thanks
You have to send the pm with your email address.
But I'm not convinced that you're of good character.
Just a reminder (for those of you in Ireland), the second episode of 'Green Is the Colour' is on RTÉ Two again at 10:25 tonight.
Book by the same name also available now for anyone interested.
Danny, any chance you can upload the next episode? thx
Missed it last night any good in comparison to episode 1?
Wasn't actually myself had uploaded the first episode, but I see RTÉ have now had it removed from YouTube on copyright grounds along with other documentaries like 'The Cat is in the Bag' that were uploaded by the same user. With that in mind, 'haughtyjack' mightn't bother uploading the second episode. I'm sure it will appear on Irish Torrents at some point today, however, if you were willing to download it from there. Could send you an invite if you wish? Or when I finally get it, I could try uploading it to YouTube myself.Quote:

more time should have been given to the impact of the GAA ban, which is still in effect today
thought it was interesting that the introduction of TV played a big part in the downfall of the league when people started watching Match of the Day instead of going to local games. The obvious question was why RTE didn't have their own version of it?
the other side of the TV problem was that it played a part in the eventual removal of the ban. when they realised it was impossible to monitor who was watching soccer at home!
Blocked
The 2nd part is up on Irish Torrents, though atm speed is at a dribble.
I've managed to download the second episode pretty quickly. Uploading it to Vimeo at the minute. Might last a bit longer there than on YouTube?Quote:

:eek: Danny has a share ratio of .28 while AlaskaFox is .10...for shame (shakes head). Danny has at least seeded Part 2 to a ratio of >1.00. Bet you didn't know I could find that out, eh?Quote:

My ratio is so dire because I downloaded a few vintage matches last year which no-one else has bothered to download since. :DQuote:

I wouldn't have either had they not claimed to be seeding (though I guess in fairness Danny was)Quote:

What can they do if there are no takers.
Just for the record, my ratio is a modestly respectable 1.64
I stand by my pillorying of them and their ****poor sharing ratios :DQuote:

I'm currently seeding both part 1 and 2, but nobody seems to be downloading. I'm worried about my ratio too, since I've signed up I've downloaded only those two things and my it looks like this:
Up: 18.03 MB
Down: 2.07 GB
Ratio: 0.01
I only downloaded it yesterday evening. And nobody is getting it from me.Quote:

I would never have confused you with Paul.
Colbert, you won't be shafted because of a poor ratio.
Sometimes weird things happen, yesterday the lines were choked even if users were seeding, today it's fine I'm downloading it at 500kBs which is my download limit.
Can't wait to see this tonight. For all Dunphy's faults (and there are many) there is no doubt about his passion for football, and Irish football in particular. This clip illustrates that very clearly...
Looks like there will be more tears shed on this evening's episode....
Straw man one appeals to emotion to justify his position, straw man 2 believes we could have achieved at least the same by doing it another way, which he doesn't have to prove or take any responsibility for.
'Whatever didn't work for the footballer, the assumed alternative choice the player had in that circumstance is what he should have done' Ray Houghton (maybe)
Haha, definitely. In Houghton's risk-free utopia, players are only allowed to shoot when they're a metre from goal and 100 per cent certain to score. All games end 0-0.Quote:

Just a reminder; episode 3 covering 1980 to 1996 is at 10.20PM. I'll try and get it up on Vimeo when I get a chance.
Cracking show tonight.
Had me cheering for all the memories.
I could watch every second of McGrath v Italy again.
Dunphy's tears were something. Completely agree with East Terracer.
It has absolutely made me giddy for the tournament now.
You've fallen for the oldest Dunphy trick in the book,
throw an ott strop, lash out like a wild man, then later with a tear welling up, 'it's only because I love football', 'I love Ireland'. I
The great Trapattoni comes to manage us and we are back playing relentless hoof ball, at last going to a Finals,
cry me a river :)
Now now. Dunphy was 100% correct in what he said.
You know this. And you know that that was genuine emotion.
It's okay not to hate him 24/7.
Was Brady's international career finished directly as a result of him not wanting to play as Jack wanted? Surely there was more to it than that? McCarthy seemed to imply it was a direct marker to the rest of the team from Jack i.e. "you do it my way or go the same way as Brady".
His passion for Irish football ? When did Dunphy have anything to say about Irish football other than the national team ? I mean ANYTHING, good or bad.Quote:

Also found it a bit cheeky that Ray Houghton bemoaned the lack of player development in Ireland...
