RTE did show a Rovers v Shels game years ago, when Mark Huthinson was playing. I remember the gantry was on the Jinks Ave. side of the ground. Why cant we do that again....If we beat Killester were on tv anyways, cup 1/2 final is always shown live..........!!
Sent them an E.Mail four times now - no reply. Does anyone have a name in TV3 ( apart from Martin King !! )
heard it costs 300 euro to have the cameras in the showgrounds and rovers wont pay it every week
They must have been listening to ye lads cos i thought they gave us good coverage tonight:)
Priceless at the end when Oso said "They'll have some Singh-song if they do (get into Europe) and then him trying to keep a straight face:D
Nice coverage tonight alright.
The pun was ridiculously stupid...
Matty on it was just so, unexpected and then...lol :D
don't get too excited yet lads, remember we were playing bohs....wait and see what sort of coverage (if any) we get when we play ucd,waterford or bray for example!
Yeah, it was a gantry built up on scaffolding. I remember Pat Dolan climbing up it to do the commentary. He got some stick for from the crowd.:DQuote:

Havent read through all the posts but get the jist that Rovers fans are ****ed off about us not being on eircom weekly lately.
Now I do not know how it works , but will find out, but do clubs not have to pay TV3 to show the highlights of their games????
If so could it not be possible that we are no longer paying this small fee(soemone mentioend €300 per game Saturday night)to show our home games.
Why should TV3 all ofa sudden drop rovers games from highlights especially when we are flying high???
(dont shoot the messenger just passing on what i heard)
TV3 paid a lot of money to have a camera at the game, only for the bohs cameraman (who gives TV3 footage) to them he was headin down & did they need the tape.
btw their budget only covers 2 games per series.
