RTE Petition

Got a letter in the door yesterday evening, announcing that NTL will be carrying Setanta Sports Irish Sports channle free to air from August 2004.

That coupled with the rumours that talks between the FAI and Niall Cogley with regard to EL coverage are progressing hopefully means that in two months this'll all be moot.

I wonder why they havnt done a deal with Chorus too, it would seem silly to close off a big chunk of the market to themselves.

Someone posted on the Ultras messageboard that Setanta plan to have a two hour EL highlights magazine every saturday morning. Now, the only place I've heard it is on the Ultras messageboard so I've no idea if it's true or not but if it is that will be a massive boost for the league.

Can you pick up this new Setanta channel on Sly?

Next Saturday will be a sell-out. so you could make a good start there.
Good idea, by the way. RTE is not giving the domestic game anywhere enough recognition, which dampens sponsors' potential, which reduces potential income to clubs to invest in new players, which affects the quality of the football, etc, etc.

I hope you get your signatures. Out of curiousity what is the average attendane at a Cork City, Shels, Pats games these day? Been a while since I've been to an EL game. I can find accurate stats anywhere on the web.

i can't really comment on the dub clubs attendances but a cork city game would average 4-5000 people. 7,000 for games with shels and european games. cheers for support

I've merged all the RTE/TV/Petition threads into one, and deleted martin_rules_ie's crossposts. It took me 20 minutes. If another persons crossposts, I'll dole out a ban. If martin_rules_ie does it again, because he's been warned, it will be permanant. No crossposts, no new threads.
