Give both those competitions to TG4/Eirsport and watch them flourish.

As for a tiered football competition, RTE would treat it with disdain.

Yep. Only the Senior championship matters for RTÉ.

This is the sort of thing that is putting people off the thought of a tiered championship.
If it was to go that way the GAA would have to put something in their broadcasting contracts to say that  a certain amount of time & coverage is allocated to each division
I can only please one person per day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look good either

Wha, you must be joking.

FFS how hard would it be to take 30 seconds just to show the results on the screen.

One thing that is very noticeable about TSG is the way certain pundits move the head towards their colleagues, as if they re not sure about what they are saying or looking for support , instead of focusing on what they are saying. Ger Loughnane is a hoor for it.

Excellent idea. Tg4 or Eir would do wonders with them.

Not if 2 tier 1 teams were relegated every year .
In the hurling, the Joe McDonagh Cup features a promotion to the elite level and that makes it far  more interesting

Not if you're Kerry it doesn't. Just wait for it, there will be nobody relegated from Leinster championship. They'll change the rules again. The comments from the usual sources have already started.

The IRFU forced RTE into showing u-20s and womens rugby if they wanted the rights to the 6 nations.
The GAA approaches TV rights negotiations as if we're just glad somebody is willing to show the games at all.
It's like they think televised games involving the 'weaker' counties will devalue the product.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

If Dublin get relegated, they'll change it. If it's a Offaly there's a smaller chance.

Absolutely agree, if the powers to be are serious about a tiered championship, they will have to do two things'

1. The so-called "B" final will have to be played before the All-Ireland, move the minor (sorry U 17 ) to 12 noon, or some other date.
2. Have the Q/finals on televised and promoted, and when possible combine some of the later rounds with latter rounds of All-Ireland, e.g. this year play those semi-finals before the big semi-finals.

I have a feeling the folks who are defending one championship may feel differently in about a month, when the two prelim qualifier rounds are out of the way, and half a dozen teams get their usual back door hammerings.
