TV 7th of July

[Bomber2312]

When will they announce what qualifier game they are showing live?

[didlyi]

I suspect that in Hurling they will be showing the Galway v Clare  match but they are showing 2 games that day.

[Fishead_Sam]

Armagh V Derry has to be the best of a bad bunch, Roscommon V Kildare could be a tight game too, didn't they have a few good games a few years back.

i was hoping it'd be mayo cavan, unlikely though!

Armagh v Derry is on 8th July.

I hope its not on tv, so a load of people don't decide to watch it down town in Castlebar rather than McHale, remember its always raining down here, if its on tele its an excuse for some.

[Bomber2312]

ya but for the poor unfortunates stuck at work, at least we could watch it live on the internet. which by the way is an excellent idea. besides there should be no excuse for those able to venture down not too! If only to give McGarrity the welcome back he deserves!

A bit strange that a do or die football game is not been shown instead of a hurling game where both counties just need to turn up to get to the next stage.

Typical RTE. There won't be blood and thunder here.

[Stagmeister]

Anyone know if its possible to watch the football at Oxegen??? Surely it is....

Munster Hurling Final one of the most looked forward to events on the GAA calender. plentyu of blood and thinder esp when Mullanes' about

Much of  a muchness barney.the quality of football to date has been dire- bar one of the meath v dublin games and the second half yesterday -the rest has been awful. Two rivals slugging it out in ennis with the loughnane factor has more going for it then:

Luimneach v An Lú - i wouldn't ask my worst enemy to watch this


Maigh Eo v An Cabhán- handy win for Mayo as Cavan are bloody awful. Hardly prime time tv

An Dún v An Mhí -possibly the only one worth showing but then again you'd wonder

Ros Comáin v Cill Dara - you can't be serious - has the potential to be worse than dublin v offaly-if that's possible


Iar Mhí v Longfort - already been done- familiarity breeds contempt and twice in 6 weeks breeds boredom from a neutral's point of view


Liatroim v Dún na nGall -  aslight possibilty as i have a soft spot for the underdog being a long-suffering dublin hurling fan -but then again donegal could wipe the floor with them. The distinct possibilty of the latter would scare the cameras away.

Armagh will wipe the floor with derry. It was a bad draw from a TV point of view. I wouldn't have any of those games ahead of the hurling. Bar yesterday in my view even being  adublin fan - i think the standard of football has been crap to date with only yesterday as being a really high quality game

I doubt they'll be any shortage of blood and thunder in Cusack Park next Saturday. The Galway and Clare hurlers will be going full tilt. It's a local derby plus the return of Loughnane to Clare and all that jazz.

In fairness none of the football qualifier games really captures the imagination of the neutral. Some interesting match-ups but no real blockbuster.

To be honest Barney, if the Mayo/Cavan match is anything like the tripe we saw in Hyde park 2 years ago I would much prefer to see the Clare V Galway match.

Nop! Had to leave 2 years ago to see the Armagh v Tyrone Ulster final! Luckily it was in Croker!
