george@premiership.co.uk
That should get him;)
Also on Sky Sports last Sunday the commentator remarked twice that it was "hard to belive he was playing for Cork City in the Irish league only 15 months ago".
Then that spanner Alan Smith said something along the same lines later on aswell.Muppets.
I expect it from foreigners so not worried about that.Quote:

:(
Never take him seriously.
Just read his articles on RTE.ie, where he tries to be humorous & and ironic to hide his ignorance of the Sport.
You are not over-reacting .... if anything, eL fans are under reacting and have done for years, are eL fans partly to blame? i dunno but if we keep our mouths shut then nothing will change.Quote:

ya i heard that alright, thought i was hearing things but then again it didnt surprise me as hamilton is like a lot of so-called irish football fans, total ignorance towards the eircom league.they only give recognition to an irish player when they play in england. sad.:confused:
Danger here....

What about them advertising Arsenal v Newcastle as the next soccer on RTE. I know George did refer to the Shel's / Bohs game after he noticed the omission but it just isn't good enough from our "national" broadcaster to forget about one of the biggest nights in Irish football. Disgrace
Considering Doyle himself has said the same thing in virtually every interview I've read with him I would suggest that it is a fair comment.Quote:

FFS, doesn't even mention whose playing, that it is the last day of the season. Fupping nothing :mad: :rolleyes: :mad:Quote:
George Hamilton - "Our next live game will be on Saturday, well there is also an eircom League game on Friday, but after our live game on Saturday don't forget that highlights will follow on the Premiership later the same evening"!
Hamilton has deteriorated alarmingly in the last few years. Cant get through any game he covers with out referring to manure or the premier****. They should get the true legend that is Jimmy Magee back. He knows the league, his son played in it and he has no ego that needs massaging.Quote:

What he actually said was that Doyle was doing very well considering it was "only his second season in full time professional football"
I wouldn't normally be one for getting all up in arms over ill informed ****e being spouted about the LOI, if you did you'd spend most of your time very very stressed out. But that is a very insulting comment to Cork City and to the league and George should be ashamed of himself.
The other comment about it being amazing that two years ago he was playing in the LOI is, IMO, a fair one if you give the benefit of the doubt. Without being disparaging to the LOI it is a fairly meteoric rise for Doyle, from scoring against Harps in his last game for Cork to scoring for the senior Irish side (such as it is) on wednesday.
TG
the email link to george hamilton doesnt work and im not logging onto the r.t.e website to look for it and giving them an underserved "hit" on their main website:) .
I made a complaint, purely because I have nothing better to do.
I send mine off too.Quote:

RTE will response as they have to but I expect can add to previous collection of lame excuses.
I still haven't forgiven him for his "Dare I say it but the Dutch seem to have run out of ideas" remark, seconds before we conceded in Euro 88.
Going off topic but he always uses Manchester United Champions League final comeback as an example when any team in any sport losing with minutes to go.
:rolleyes:
I got a pretty standard 'Thank you for your e-mail, which I am forwarding for information and interest to the Executive Producer of RTÉ TV Sport' response
Was a bit annoyed that the next live football was penned for Champions League Tuesday and Premiership Staurday completely ignoring the biggest night in the league!!!
Had a full reply
What did it say, Soper?Quote:

I'll pm it to the both of you if you want, and whoever else wants it, as I'd rather not post it on here
I sent it to sport so no surprise why not even acknowledgement email. Will give them a few days before send to complaints. BTW RTE website is terrible as it just says send email to required department without including email addresses...Quote:

Soper sent it to me to, nice 1
I got no response from Sports dept but got quick reply from complaints dept when forwarded to themQuote:
