Shame on you Pete :D . RTE have gone so far as to cover a Derry City v Cork game from the Brandywell before. I think Pat Morley scored for you lot on that occasion, was an awful game.

Derry have a tendency to play poorly when the cameras are in the Brandywell so lets hope for a good, open game of football

It'll have to go some way to top the entertainment fest that is Rovers v Pats.

Who's idea was it to televise this game?

We were the same until this season. I think when teams are not on tv very often they are nervous.

They're also going to show Cork v Shlebourne on Monday August 15th from Turners X. Cork twice on RTE in the space of 5 days.

Showing Cork City twice in 1 week is just an unusual event that Aertel had to annouce with its own page. :eek:

Did you watch it all Hamish? How was the game? It had 0-0 borefest written all over it before it kicked off in my opinion. Can't figure out what possessed them to show it.

Shocking stuff. Like a throwback to the mid-nineties, in that Mark Rutherford and Tony Sheridan (during a thirty-minute cameo) were the best players on the pitch. Filth had most of the possession, Pat's created the only chance worthy of the description (Armstrong prodded over from six yards.)

The TG4 presenter was a clueless, patronising muppet who should never be allowed near an eL fixture again. :mad:

Poor game PS. Pats missed a sitter in the first half and that's about all I can remember TBH.

Main stand was about half full at best with a scattering of fans in the end stand. Rest of ground empty.

To think that around 25,000 watched those two clubs when The Hoops played their first game in the RDS back in the early 90s was it? :(

He expressed his "br�n" for Trevor Molloy, reduced to playing at this level having once shared a field with Damien Duff and Robbie Keane (if he meant playing for Shams, that would be far enough, but he was plainly alluding to the eL in general.) :rolleyes: :mad:

The questions he posed to the respective managers were mind-bogglingly inane, even by the standards of football journalism, and caused one to wonder whether he'd actually watched the game.

Somehow you wouldn't expect to hear these sentiments expressed as Gaeilge. :rolleyes:

God it was shocking. Alan Matthews' defensive tactics are more exciting than that match :eek: :o

True, "daoine gan teach" just doesn't trip off the tongue. As for trying to make up chants that rhyme in Irish... ;)

Also, wasn't the first-ever eL fixture broadcast live on TV staged at the Brandywell in 1997? Derry were certainly involved, they beat Shels (?) 1-0 with a stooping header (Hutton?)

Ages ago, Derry beat us 1-0 on a Saturday afternoon, peno I think??
