What's the story with the BTS podcast? Last episode was the Brier goodbye but I thought it was carrying on?

Oh I didn't see the tweet. A pity but understandable. Please not with a Dundalk head though.

Hi lads, I announced the end of BTS yesterday sadly. As Marty said I've relocated to Dundalk and am working in Broadcasting full time now so just can't commit to it. Very proud of what we achieved across all platforms but particularly the podcast. Im sure it's not the last podcast or LOI venture IL be involved in but for now the new job comes first, thanks to everyone who listened in, brilliant experience.

Apparently the St Pats commentary lads have received a letter from the FAI telling them to stop. These services are brilliant for exiled fans. Shocking pety stuff . New FAI me hoop

Surely as a media member you'll know all about the new centralised media rules?

From the FAI:

If you commentate on any matches live, you must have a rights deal in place with the SSE Airtricity League which will give you permission to broadcast live matches.

I think it's a good move to properly centralise rights to league coverage. Before now, anyone could walk in and broadcast a league match, be it a radio broadcast, or a live stream off their phone. They're trying to stop this by ensuring radio stations and other media outlets have the correct rights to do so. It's a step forward in terms of professionalism within the league to be honest. Not ideal for the amateur broadcasters that have been doing it for years, but the likes of the lads doing it at Pats should have known about this already when the email was circulated before the start of the season.

I totally disagree, these services are vital to exiled supporters. The FAI should be providing these services anyway but it seems if they aren't they don't want anyone else doing so.
