Televised Games 2012

[pineapple stu]

RTE tells the FAI what games they want, and thats that. Clubs can't say no

They could turn up and play on the original date for the craic.

Sunday at 1, a big gap in RTÉ's schedule because "Game already played on Friday"

[Sean South]

So thats Shamrock Rovers and Derry being blamed. We'll never hear the end of it from the Sligo Rovers fans now, what about them?

Seriously have a word with yourself

[Sean South]

I do, in this instance beacuse I was privy to the initial discussions that were to take place regarding your clubs being put on the box.
No calls were returned by board

Can you back this statement up or just more waffle?

It's pure and utter nonsense he was drivelling, like the majority of "in the know" Shams supporters. Privy to initial discussions. Aye, right.

But if the nefarious Rovers/RTE cabal is as extensive as you are constantly reminding us, why would it be surprising that a Rovers fan would have insider knowledge of the behind the scenes workings of RTE?

Zzzzzz.

No, what's boring is reading reams of absolute waffle about Rovers/RTE conspiracies to monopolise the league; that even includes the embarrassing, deluded ramblings of two bob Sligo hacks in national newspapers

Talk to myself? Bit crazy don't you think?

No, what's boring will be the same team being live on TV for 4 of the first 5 live league games of the season.

This discussion is boring, Enjoy your healthy diet of Shamrock Rovers, and you should probably try and get used to it for the sake of your own mental health.

I plan on watching Rovers every week, not just the opening weeks..it'll be great

[Charlie Darwin]

I thought Eamon Sweeney's article was alright. I mean it'd be better if he could figure out which SRFC he actually supports from week to week, but he made some valid points, especially about the de facto national team thing. I wouldn't be particularly keen on Rovers doing a PSG and pinching supporters from non-Dublin teams.

We had 11 of our European games on live tv last year. How did you cope?

You got the spaceship all fuelled up for the new season man?

You got the spaceship all fuelled up for the new season man?

I'd say he has his frackin FTL drive well spooled up by now.

He's ready. How about your manager?

Contact NASA, they can help you with that one.

Thought the coverage of the match last night was awful, RTE seemed totally despondent of drogheda against the mighty rovers. It seemed that they thought Drogheda where lucky to be playing on the same field as rovers, as if it was by luck of the draw or something, not like they havent been in the premier longer than them. There was total lack of respect given to drogheda.
