Not entirely sure about that. When RTÉ did the show and had it on at 7:00 on a Sunday, it pulled in more viewers than The Premiership. So there is a market for it.
The late time does hit the viewership, but it's unlikely to be the biggest-rated show of all time. Somewhere in between lies the truth, alongside the fact that it's a joke of an effort by TV3 and I'll be glad to see it go when it does.
hear hear..
btw..what happened to The Offside Show?
it was on TV3..nuff said.Quote:

In fairness to TV3 they make some effort & it doesn’t cost us a bean! (Biased or not) The extent of RTEs weekly domestic soccer coverage is a 4/5-page tele-text effort & Mark O’Neil-Cummins opinion of the league, & that mostly relates to matters off the pitch. I don’t think I have seen Rovers mentioned on it, except maybe once? & it cost us €154 a year. National Broadcaster? My Bolli*
its all great and well saying there was no camera at the game but tv3 decided to take on the coverage of the eircom league so they should cover it properly.that means sending their own cameras to the game.it seems to me that they have anm attitude of "well if sligo want to send up a tape of the game we'll show it but if they don't we don't give a sh!t".its the most biased programme ever.shams are regulars on it now while country teams like the rovers are shown the odd time.
Maybe thats cos Shams do send their games in i'm sure TV3 dont send their own cameras to their games.
In fairness, if Shams can send tapes, resulting in more coverage, shouldn't we be going down the same route instead of sitting back complaining?
How much would it cost to stick up a decent gantry and buy/hire a camera. You could put up a hoarding/ stick an ad in the programme and on the website for whoever supplies coverage - "Mickey Muck provides coverage of Sligo Rovers for ELW, why not get him for your wedding/party/Youth Defence wireless bungee jump outing".
This has gone beyond a joke now. FFS, tonight they didn't show our game against Longford and also had Keith Foy down as Robbie Foy in their goal of the month nominations. ****ing tools!:mad:
Definitely going to email them now, even though it prob wont make much difference, it'll make me feel better:).
If anyones interested, here's the address: info@tv3.ie
Disappointing that there was no coverage tonight. Camera was there…must have got lost on the way to Ballymount. Threw them an E.Mail of complaint last week, as yet no reply..must have got lost on the way to Ballymount.
Do you reckon that Robbie will rival Keith for the Irish number 3 spot??
its an absolute joke.robbie foy?how fukcing amateur is that?they couldn't even get his name right.i don't think we've been on now since we played drogheda away!maybe we'll get shown next week coz we're playing bohs...yes bohs from dublin!
There was defo a camera there maybe they'll show it on one of the Sports Tonight shows during the week.
Lads we have been over this!! Neither Sligo nor Longford are in Dublin so why should TV3 show the game?? :)
same s**t every single week!! they keep goin on and on about the same game and then at the end in the summary....they talk more about the games they showdd wen they cud be showinn more action!! amateurs!!
Finally a sligo fan talking sense.Quote:
