    just got round to watching this now. Really good show.

    Sligo looked very good, as did UCD (Kilduff looks a super player). Galway i thought were poor but Drogheda looked worse. Dundalk and Bray both looked pretty useful. The Bohs peno was lucky as was Rovers' who looked a bit toothless in my unbiased opinion.

    Overall, on the show, we are lucky to have such a quality highlights show available to us compared to the sh1te that TV3 served up before i left. It looks like RTE has got a settled format now for MNS and its excellent.

    I think they've made a stark improvement on last year, however i will never get why they need 3 pundits???

    Cons a good presenter i think, although he gets the giggles too easily, but i think we should have just 2 pundits along side him.

    If i were to choose my favourite pundits i would probably go for Rico and Eoin Hand, both intelligent men that talk sense.

    I don't understand why they need to play music when they are showing the highlights of some games, what is with that?

    I'm liking the cult heroes thing, brings back the memories for a few people, who knows maybe it'll intice some of the lost generation back when they see the likes of mick leech featured on the show.

    Good to see MNS back, along with the 15 live games RTE will be showing.

    Any word whether Setanta will show any live league games in addition to the Setanta Cup ?

    I'll rise to the bait. He was born in Sligo and played for Sligo, but I know for a FACT he regards himself as a United man - the majority of his goals were scored for United, he had 2 spells with us, applied twice to be manager, and has made Galway his home. Nice try, but not this time Mr WUM

    I will rise also. 2 spells? Pah. He had at least 5 spells with us. I would say that anyone from down the country who makes their home in Dublin doesn't automatically become a Dub (or a Fingallian depending on where you settle / who you're talking to)

    Its not really bait tbh, he was born and raised in Sligo Town, grew up supporting Rovers and then went on to play for them. Yes he played for Galway but he also played in England. So im not sure what "Facts" your on about.
    I know alot of lads that live in Galway and support Rovers, work and College and all the rest.
