    No live games til june...atleast

    According to the star, there will be no live games bar the setanta cup until june atleast. RTE will not show any games til after the GAA championship in sept, TG4 have no plans to show a game in the foreseeable future and setanta will only be showin the setanta cup for the moment.
    So from june to end of season there will have to be atleast 22 more live games and 5 "as live" ones to meet the contract which was announced a few weeks back

    BTW 51000 households watched the pats-bohs game on TG4 last week according to the TAM ratings.

    Thats a load of b*llix....

    There should be games continuously throughout the season, not this "whenever we can fit them in and it suits us" attitude. How is an audience for this ever going to be built up if there is no regularity?
    At least one league game live plus a FAI/Setanta cup game, so that there are at least 2 live games every month should have been stipulated.....

    He's only just woken up in time for tonight. But he keeps staring into space and mumbling 'ceathar-cuig-a haon, ceathar-cuig-a haon' (apologies for decades-old Leaving Cert-cum-phonetic spelling attempt).
