    Question for Exiles

    Can anyone remember was RTÉ.ie's EL coverage available worldwide last season? I would walk downstairs and ask but I'd say you lot will have the answer waaaaay quicker.

    Ah yes, how could I forget that glorious episode in RTÉ's irish football coverage. Cheers.

    Yes you sure will - technical problems not withstanding - but I'm going to personally make sure that all Bohs games are blocked in Canada.

    I think its only GAA & foreign football that RTE can't show outside Ireland. If someone owned the North American rights to the eL i suppose RTE would not be able to broadcast there...

    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.

    Towards the end of last season all live RTE games were available on broadband worldwide (they showed Shels V Drogs for example). Not sure if the same is the case this season. I can't find anything on the RTE website about it.

    Another question for the exiles that I have always wondered at is: How can you leave the country and not see your club play on a regular basis

    If you want to access any online streaming, from any website that stipulates you have to be from a certain country, simply go to a site like http://www.publicproxyservers.com/ and chose a proxy server address for whatever country you want.

    Then go into your connection settings and change your connection to the relevant proxy address.

    It helps also having a club in your current country's league. (Although I didn't actually leave the country, having been born and raised in the US.) I'm hoping to be able to get to see some of the games by the startup 4th-tier club in Buffalo live this summer, and will be following Toronto on the TV. I could follow a European club that's on here more than an EL side, like ManU. But I wouldn't feel so attached to them.

    Have you ever watched Kildare County play football? I ended up in Florida, and that's just because the plane ran out of fuel!

    This season www.eircom.net if you have broadband will have football available for up to 4 days after the games have been broadcast.
