    First TV games of 2007

    Setanta Sports have announced the first three games they will televise live in the 2007 Setanta Sports Cup.

    The opening night (26th February) game between the two previous winners of the competition Drogheda United and Linfield will be first up from United Park.

    The clash between Irish League sides Linfield and Glentoran the following week (5th March) will be next up.

    Seven days later the game between Cork City and Shelbourne at Turner's Cross will be screened live as the last two eircom League champions go head to head.

    All televised games will kick off at 8pm with further TV details to be announced in the coming days and weeks.

    Is there actually going to be a league to televise this year? I thought a certain bloke from Drumcondra and his mate from Merrion Sq were conspiring to bring the who show tumbling down...

    I don't believe they show but no first hand knowledge. I think they have shown as live later that week in the past...

    Take out a subscription to an Irish address and get them to send you a viewing card. You can then watch Setanta Ireland wherever you are.
    BTW - good promotion on at the moment , €10 per month.

    You'll need a subscription to Sky in Ireland first, then sign up to Setanta.

    Takes a good few weeks to sort with all the to-ing and fro-ing though - so you'd want to get the proverbial wriggle-on if you fancy doing this.

    It was on Setanta Ireland, and for some reason wasn't blocked.I remember flicking through the channels the night of the Linfield - Derry match in Windsor, and being amazed that it was on.

    Actually you dont Steve , I have Setanta on a "Stand Alone" basis , when I subscribed I told them that I was not a Sky customer but had a digibox and they sent me a card with just Setanta on it. It works in any digibox , I tried it out.

    Sadly only on Sky, NTL only give you Celtic and Rangers TV, Setanta Golf, some American sports network and Setanta Sports 1

    Anyone know how to get this in the States? I tried looking for webcasts, but Setanta seems to block IP addresses from outside Ireland for the broadband casts.

    I'm having exactly the same problem. Would love to know if there's a solution to this.

    If you know someone with Setanta and can hook it up to their PC, it can be broadcast through sopcast or TVU through the internet. AFAIK they provide the programme/upload route so you only leave it running.

    Worth investigating IMO

    I presume City v Pats will now be aired after Shelsgate.
    City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.

    WaR, any news on RTE's (you can put in the fada yourself) plans for the coming year? Increased coverage? i seem to remember Setanta saying they'd be showing more games but haven't heard any news about this years coverage

    Presume RTE/Setanta/TG4 all showing live games with TV3 doing the half hour Monday thing?
