Doesn't surprise me AM is very protective of his dressing room. One former chairman of ours made the mistake of wandering into the Town dressing room at half time, ostensibly to use the toilet he was really just being nosy, he got such a going over he never made the same mistake again. Proper order too.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
Not too convinced about this facet of RTE coverage (pitch side interviews and dressing room invasion) - cant wait to see some manager lose it completely over some decision given against them ! think it better to give a little time after the game to allow managers get things in perspective (insofar as it happens) before poking a camera in their faces.

Agree Dodge. I think it's a great idea. Foster didn't seem too happy to have a mic in his face in the first half. It is definitely only a matter of time before it goes horribly wrong though!
Will be some craic when Paul Cook gets asked for his measured reaction during the heat of battle.
Yeah, definitely only a matter of time before some under pressure boss tells TO'D exactly where to stick his microphone.
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses - behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights.

Roy Keane is still a pri*k!
the pitch side interviewing during the flipping game is the cheesiest bullcrap ive ever seen from rte, and that takes some doing.
the manager is working, interview him after when his work is done. tony o donoghue is looking for something to do. If I was a manager id tell them to take the bloody camera out of my face because I'm trying to do my job here, talking to the press comes before and after games not during them!
It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up.

have to agree on interviewing managers during the games - its all a bit too GAA/Marty Morrissey-esque for my liking...
I'd actually have no problem at all about managers not being interviewed after the game. I've yet to hear one interview where the manager says something we don't know. Nothing but cliches.
At least the in-game interviews catch them off guard
