    Thumbs down Setanta tv

    This is something I would not subscribe to after watching the setanta cup highlights Sligo Rovers v Cork.
    Their commentators at the showgrounds were a disgrace and they really do not have a clue.
    They made up their tiny minds before the game started Cork were going to win and this was the script they ran with for 90min.
    They made so many stupid comments I lost count.
    Im sticking with TG4 and TV3.

    Don't think tv3 have shown anything to do with league of ireland since that terrible eircom league weekly show about two years age!

    Think you're taking your crusade against Setanta a bit too far , Watched the game there on it and I don't think their critisism was that bad in fact they were quite complimentary on the young lads by the end.

    suppose you cant let it affect you once you make the step up to first team football, thats they way it is, any criticism you get you have to deal with, didn't hear the comment but was told they were a bit OTT at times....

    No crusade.
    They were very one sided, the boys made mistakes which were mentioned again and again. They also won some good headers , made good passes and tried to play the game the way it should be player, this was never mentioned.
    They also had a go at D Marshall, then gave him man of the match
    Compliments=praise?

    As I recall he said that Marshall hadn't a great first half but that he got better in the 2nd half and really got amongst the Cork defence. Anyway my main gripe with the commentator was that he was constantly going on about the gaelic football final the next day.
