    Virgin Media have seemingly blocked MNS in the north this week.
    Why??
    Have you ever won the treble?

    first time seeing it this season and its shockingly badly put together. waste of time with the inroducing of the panel. total waste of time with all the panel discussions which go on and on for ages. The Dundalk Cork footage was woeful. Too long, showing rubbish after rubbish. If the quality isnt there in the game, dont show it. The panel discussion after the dundalk cork game was all about cork and dundalk but not on the match.

    In putting music to the footage there simply saying that the games are ****e why put in music? Sligo Bohs was much better footage. Now loads of pat and rico complimenting each other with stupid jokes...add break

    bray derry was the right length but again more talk after each game how bout doing a cluster of games before getting into discussion?

    galway rovers.....ive seen the footage on youtube in the last few days and one thing that helps is atmosphere. but because of the music and the voiceover we can barely here it. youtube footage was far better.

    thunder strike...dont come to my club please.........add break



    adds are interesting

    pats drogs//// drogs fans looking good, again, again, again and finally again. Jeff Kenna crap tie...

    fans e mails and photos are good.



    in contrast to this tripe, RTE through their free promotion of the GAA in the off season produce excellent, reminders of your identity with underdogs,(in ur nations tongue) celibrity bannisteor...concept: anyone can get involved, friday nights promo programme about the GAA, all wetting your apitite for the comming big games via the sunday game.

    Well, I think Doolin's methods will prove more effective than Mathews'. And it's not like Mathews' teams play attractive football anyway.

    So I'd agree with him.

    I thought it was good and all panelists this week offered alot to the discussion. Great programme, i know they dont always get it right but i thought it was great this week.
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    Can't see how you can come to that conclusion. Longford were actually not a bad football team when he was in charge of them, i would consider what i seen of Cork this year and playing more direct than last year i thought Mathews tried to play football and from i hear Drogs actually are playing the ball on the ground this year and have been unlucky. So like i said not sure how you came to that conclusion.

    I've never bought into the myth that Matthews' teams play rubbish football either. Always play mostly a short passing team when I've seen any of his teams play.

    I thought it was a fairly poor show, Tony O'Donoghue got the names of the 'keepers in the Utd-Rovers match wrong on a couple of occasions, and while it is great to see them give a footballer whose career was cruelly cut short a chance on the couch, could they try and ensure he knows what he is talking about? His analysis was p*ss poor and he, at times, contradicted himself. Can't see them keeping this on next year, Con's 'announcement' of the stuff on the website sounded to me like a desperate plea for people to log on to it so they can record decent site traffic to justify the whole thing

    Dead right there Rovers Maniac. The football Mathews team is serving up this year is a pleasure to watch compared to last seasons dross under Doolin. It looked to me like Cork played some decent stuff under Mathews last season as well

    Pity the reporter (Tony O'Donoghue??) on the Galway v Hoops match didn't do his homework beforehand as he referred to Barry Murphy playing in goal for Rovers, yet it was Robert Duggan and then he said Murphy took off a great save from one of the Sean O'Connor in the 2nd half!!... It was indeed the Galway keeper (Barry Ryan!) who saved from the Rovers player!
