Looks like RTE dumped TG4 (were they not to show games throughout August?) off that game as high profile.
Maybe the FAI/eL made a suggestion to RTE?
Yet another example of the anti dublin bias from the Red Necked Kerry Socialists that run RTE......AND TO THINK I pay my licence fee for this!!!
disgraceful.....wots their email address???

Of course! Its statistically proven that games between Dublin teams have more goals.Quote:

Looking forward to the clash of the table toppers!
Make a protest by throwing your TV out the window. :DQuote:

However Dublin extended the right for country folk to play real football in 1971 and now even Cork people like Roy Keane have gone on to represent Ireland in football, only 20 years ago it would have been unthinkable for a non dub to play in the green of ireland.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that the first ever live televised European game involving an Irish team to be broadcast on RTE was Derry City Versus Benfica back in the 89/90.
I know its probably being mentioned before but why do they show live matches on friday nights? Why cant the match be changed to a day it doesnt clash with most other EL fixtures like they do for the Premiership. Would make more sense to me
What night do you suggest?Quote:

The first time a game other than a Cup Final was featured live on Irish TV was Derry v Benfica from the Brandywell in 1989/90. Benfica then managed by a certain Mr S G Ericsson.Quote:

Well any other night - saturday or sunday? ie a night where the majority of EL fixtures arent onQuote:

Hasn't been much point up to this year though, has there? I know from the TV crews that certain grounds are preferred due to ease of installation of facilities. For example, the RSC in Waterford is supposedly the easiest ground to film in, now if only we had something there that people would want to watch :rolleyes:Quote:

FFS, why does it have to be the same night as the Bray-Harps match??? :mad:
I wish I could watch it. I might video it. :o
We're playing Bohs at home, I'll just tape it and avoid the score.
Thats crazy decision. RTE are clearly trying to derail out title ambitions as we have traditionally been bad on live tv.Quote:
