Oh Jaysuis. they're moaning enough over the fixtures - don't get them started on that!Originally Posted by Slash/ED

Thats just Dolan moaning like all Managers (handy to have excuse later) & in that media article is no mention of City launching any campaign.Cork City manager Pat Dolan is the latest figure to express his annoyance at the fixtures which were published on Saturday at the League's AGM.
Brian Lennox was interviewed (see corkcityfc.ie) & said he had no problem with fixtures as all the same.
I'm surprised that TG4 are getting in on the act. Anyone have any idea how this will work?
This is all just rumour at the moment as nothing announced yet. Is Delaney just using as carrot for the eL to merge with the FAI.
I'd be surprised if this is a 1 season deal as probably a 3 year, 10 game a season deal. Notice the "Up to" section of quote. RTE probably showed 7-8 league & cup games last season anyway. TG4 element is the only real new information.
If I was a Cork fan I would be investigating getting a judicial review on the NDP and the blantant discrimination in which roads set for improvement in the Munster area have been deliberately held up by the Dublin clubs
Ah come on lads, Cork is the European City of Culture this year, so the least we can do is let them win the bloody league.
Maribor, I like it
In Irish!

What would you know about the so-called "arty crap" that "nobody has any interest in"?
That's just the sort of dismissive, philistine attitude that has rightly earned your town the reputation it enjoys -and so richly deserves.
Believe me, the "ordinary Corkman" (whoever he is) is getting along fine without your condescending attitude.
Good to see TG4 involved. Their GAA National League coverage is excellent and they should have a lot of free airtime during the summer when RTE have the GAA rights.
I've thought for ages that EL live games should be offered free to TG4. Maybe they will show a live game from each round of the Cup or something.
I'm what? I'm ants at a picnic?
TG4 did a really good job on Celtic League rugby as well
Obviously Jim you are definately one of the "ordinary Corkmen".

No, funnily enough I'm not -I'm a blow-in and no better lad to give them a good slaggin' when they deserve it, which is fairly often.
Now, now, put the handbag away like a good girl. I know plenty down in Cork, from all walks of life, who can't stop complaining about how the City of Culture programme doesn't really mean anything to them. Obviously you're a cut above the rest Jim
BTW, Cork City has alot more scumbags and is alot more dangerous at night than Limerick will ever be. At least in Limerick you can go out for a night and not end up in a coma in hospital. Aren't ye the ones that are banning any sort of street drinking outside pubs and closing nightspots down early because ye can't control yourselves? City of Culture my a*se

Turners Cross.
Cork City vs Bohs.
Music, humour, Mexican wave, full house etc etc.
Chomund Park.
Munster v Harlequins.
Announcer; " Would the owner of car reg. no xyz please return to it as it has been interfered with " (4 times during the game/4 different cars)
PLUS Garda helicopter hovering overhead all day.
Yeah- nice safe city alright.
I never said it was a safe city. Where's Chomund Park anyway?
from fai.ie
The Football Association of Ireland will announce details of a major TV rights agreement for domestic soccer with RTÉ, TG4, and Setanta at a media conference in the Mezzanine Suite, Jury's Hotel, Ballsbridge at 12.00 noon, Tomorrow, Friday 25th February.
Great News.
Not so fast ... we haven't heard it yet !!
We can hardly give them credit for giving media conference now can we
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.
in fairness, when was the last time they even made that much of an effort
