No probs, its the way to go to be honest as with an extra couple of cameras it looks very professional and costs are exponentially lower than a full OB.
Unfortunately given RTE is run by the unions they would never be allowed "outsource" like this and deny the OB lads the Friday evening overtime.
If RTE had any imagination it could be a LOW LOW cost with pics form all grounds at half and full time.
Maybe Virgin will try it out and kick RTE out.
Downside for RTE is its peaktime Friday night but Virgin have a few channels that arent exactly big viewer numbers so it might make sense for them
