It is an odd choice though but still.
The anti-Dublin bias continues.![]()
Well, I know we're all disappointed it's not another all-Dublin fest ehOriginally Posted by patsh
Besides, I seem to remember that last televised Longford-Waterford match being a pretty decent game, with a thriller of a finish.
Allez les Bleus
Cos evrybody just loves to see Keego playing...!![]()
Why are the best matches on when I will be at a Bray match. Derry-Cork or Bray-Harps? There's no choice but I'd still like to see the two top teams in action.
Pity it's not Setanta and they'd showe a replay.

Typical Dublin Bias. They decided to show Longford so can use it as excuse never to return again when see sh!te football!
Yeah, I think they had to seach high and low for a match to show with less potential than Rovers v Pats but they have found it.
Don't let the cat out of the bag guys, we can't let people know that the league leaders can't even put away a team playing "sh!te football"
"I don’t want to tempt fate, but Thierry Henry is not having one of his best nights." - RTE co-commentator Jim Beglin, minutes before TH struck the stunning winner.
Now just hold on a minute. You can accuse the other operators of having a Dublin bias but I think TG4 should be commended for spreading it around the country.
And besides unlike the other operators filming in Dublin isn't the 'lazy' option for them as Nemeton produce the sport coverage and all their staff are based in Waterford. I know because a friend of mine started working down there recently, he comes back up at weekends.

Some people are just never happy ! personall i can't remember ever if there has been 4 live league matches shown in the space of a month........
I wonder are they going to show Shels - Bohs at Tolka on Aug 19th.
Should be a cracker after what happened last time at Dalyer, although GF will be out, so the football won't be as good.
They wont as its the same day as Derry v Cork iirc
i doubt many ppl wud be interested in watchin too many 1st div games but we're playin seery's scum on october 1st in showgrounds&i'd say that'll be a better game than longford v waterford and will certainly attract a bigger attendance

Fook me, a bit of spreading the wealth and there's whinging going on. Even Sky show the lesser lights now and again, you don't have to watch it. If they want to show us and Waterford and give us a nice 5k for it who am I to argue? Might be a good game, it might not be too but no harm in seeing different teams benefitting from the TV deal, it is supposed to be for the whole league, though we've had far more attractive games on paper and they've shown no interest.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
I hope the suggestion of showing a div1 match is a joke?Originally Posted by Red4Eva
No, I doubt it was a joke and if you find that funny then you have a weird sense of humourOriginally Posted by ThatGuy

Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
That's what I was thinking too but people in my family can't be trusted to leave the thing alone.Originally Posted by TonyD
