    Very enjoyable again. Feature on the Euro U-16 win, Goal of the Month (of suspect quality, admittedly), Harps' winner against Derry ten years ago on the scorer's 40th birthday and Glen Crowe losing his balance over his belly.

    Disappointed they didn't interview Keith Foy during the Euro U-16 feature. Considering he's in the league, scored one of the goals in the clip they showed and was also mentioned by Andy Reid in the interview. Think I'll send them an e-mail.

    Another good show, Tony O'Donoghue did a good job & the guests tonight(Rico, Dave Barry and Liam Mackey)made some good points.

    I enjoyed the report on the Euro - U16 aswell, i didnt know John O'Shea & Andy Ried was playing for them back then.

    Giovanni Trappatoni & Marco Tardelli will be doing the draw for the 2nd Round of the FAI Cup on next week's show

    3rd round and why the shock? They are the international management team.

    You can see for yourself now, A Face, it's up on the site.

    Wasn't a great show, though. Around a quarter of it was wasted on Oireland stuff which had nothing to do with the league, the 60 interviewee was some nobody from UCD and your man Mackey was back on the panel and doing most of the talking for some reason.
    A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.

    I suppose the quality of the Ballybofey pitch on the Archive section met with your disapproval too?

    I wouldn't be too bothered, he's just indulging in a spot of bank holiday fishing.

    You'd like to think so, but he has a bizarre notion that the Irish national team should consist solely of players playing in Ireland, which gets brought up far more regularly than an opinion of its ridiculousness ought.

    That 60 seconds thing is retarded and if thats the only way of getting a woman in the show The first division doesnt exist of course and it was no surprise to see Dave Barry as Tony ODs side kick i was actually expecting a visit from the president of cork himself, Roy Keane! The "raiders" piece is ruined by the grany footage which is a joke and is RTE just saying that our footbage is ****e. Not a showing of great European times like the 60s/70s/80s course the tapes are prob taped over with GAA games by now. Id love to see a collection of away european goals in the show. Just from a Limerick side, Des Kennedy scoring in the bernebeu, Limerick drawing 1 1 in the Dell Vs Southampton or Alkmaars last min winner against us in 79. No chance of course

    E-mail them.

    But I bet the footage, if it still exists (I know our game against Everton is gone), will be grainy.

    We have been over this before, can we give it a rest now. If you are promoted then you'll be on, get promoted and its job done.

    and it was no surprise to see Dave Barry as Tony ODs side kick i was actually expecting a visit from the president of cork himself, Roy Keane!
    Last few beers after the long weekend draws to a close i see.

    Email address ... top of the thread. List some games and they'll show them. Unless you are expecting someone else to do it for you.

    course the tapes are prob taped over with GAA games by now.
    C'mon, you're being silly now

    Id love to see a collection of away european goals in the show.
    I would too, good idea, email them about it. List some goals as well so it has a better chance of being shown.

    Just from a Limerick side, Des Kennedy scoring in the bernebeu, Limerick drawing 1 1 in the Dell Vs Southampton or Alkmaars last min winner against us in 79. No chance of course
    Email them, if they have the footage then there is no reason it wont be shown.

    No he's not. That's what they do with archive footage. (Not necessarily the GAA bit, but the recording over bit)

    They spend huge amount of money on time coding footage so i cant imagine that they record over it willy nilly, i'm not saying it doesn't happen, but some footage gets priority over other. I cant imagine to tape over European footage like that.

    Ask them .... email them

    Why has there been 2 UCD players on that "Sixty" thing? When Ramblers, Finn Harps, Cork City and Sligo havn't had any players!

    The red card at the Sligo vs Shams game was terrible. It was assault as Bellavistaman stated earlier on in the thread.

    The goal of the month is a joke. There is no way that Brennan's penalty shuld be in there. There's a few more i'd question aswell.
    LESS OF THE BULL NOW!

    It was common practise with RTE to tape over old sports footage. Our club contacted them for the footage of Athlone vs AC Milan and only 30 minutes of it survived.

    I have emailed half of europe trying to find old footage of the away leg in the San Siro bit as of yet no joy.
