Doubt that that information will be released until after the next round of qualifiers.

Well theroad, what stands out is the positive analysts with
no agenda, the enthusiastic tactical breakdown on the big screen,
and Dave McIntyre commentating. Oh, and the cracking anchor,
must not forget her. ;)

Nothing wrong with RTEs tactical analysis. Brolly knows his stuff, even if he he does frustrate people. Marty Morrissey is doing a great job today in the commentary box.

Lol theroad; yer having a laugh aren't you lad!
You are entitled to stay in yer 'De Valera like'
bubble, but some of us embrace the opportunity of
bringing our games to the world in a positive way.

What a great game; its great that such a high standard of football
is being shown by SK; and our neighbors across the water and around
the world can also enjoy it. And the expert, positive analysis will
ensure they are hooked. Bravo Sky, bravo.

So if someone expresses a preference for a type of presentation, or doesn't enjoy the type of programming you enjoy, they live in a 'De Valera like' bubble? What a lazy put down. And all you're really doing is indulging in one type of insularity over another, you might be living in your own bubble.
I prefer RTE's coverage (well, hurling coverage) as well, thats just my preference. You enjoy Sky's presentation, its just to your tastes. Its all subjective.

Some of you boys in the south have lived in the 'de valera type bubble'
for too long. Its time to use the pin boys; its a big world out there. ;)

If "universal" is what youre after why do you even watch the GAA? Soccer and rugby are far more universal (on the global stage) than the GAA, which is only popular in Ireland (at the moment).

I'm not sure what the pin thing is referring to. I don't live in a 'De Valera' bubble, I don't think I said anything to indicate that, I just expressed a preference for RTE's hurling coverage. Just because you enjoy something,doesn't mean everyone else has to. We're not all in your bubble.

If you want to choose the universal over the insular, you need be more open minded.
