Is the match live on TV or radio across the Irish sea?

Yes, Premier Sports, Sky Channel 433. I think it's £6.99 a month, you get League & Championship plus a few more different sports.

I can't remember seeing a horse win as easily at the festival since Arkle.

f**king hell Hardy I can just about remember the Great One & I thought I was getting on a bit. :)

I'm sure I remember him, but it could be the senile dementia.

Bit that way myself these days. ;)Can't see the Fly getting beat.

Did you love them before she loved you though?

Pork pies - food of the gods. Always has been, always will be, and cholesterol be damned
Cricket - definitely came to appreciate its charms long before I met her
Warm beer - no. Definitely something she foisted on me with her "you'll love this!" ways. See also: home-grown tomatoes and walking around stately piles
You have more in common with Maddog than you think. :o

But that's enough about piles

;D Theres a man trying to talk himself out of the fruits of my horticultural labour, which he has never turned his nose at. Here Ziggy - would you not be better off on the come dine with me thread ye hoor ye ;)

I'm sure I don't know what you mean!!

As it stands how can someone in England watch GAA? RTE content usually blocked online and have searched in vain many times.
Is it worth getting Sky in to then subscribe to Setanta or can I even do that?

Don't know about Setanta but if you have Sky you can subscribe to Premier Sports for about £6 a month. They show League & Championship games.

I was at the WBA match on saturday and to be honest Chelsea seemed to be second best for most of the game. I was hoping they would wait until after the Birmingham to sack AVB (selfish reasons). A lot of those Chelsea players would need to take a serious look at themselves, for whatever reasons they don't seem to be performing at a level you would expect for top PL players. Essien is not the player he was, Sturridge is starting to believe the hype & Cole seems to have lost his pace. They are not on their own, Drogba, Lampard, Ramires & Ivanovic all seemed to be struggling. In saying that I hope they don't suddenly find their form & give us a tanking. On another note Steven Reid was having a cracking game until he got injured (hope it's not serious as a fit Reid would be a great addition to the ROI squad).

QuoteThose Who Kill

Watched some of it but didn't think it was a patch on 'The Killing', 'Borgen' or 'The Bridge'.  Very ITV.

Help me out please Billy, I watched all of Borgen in 3 days on thhe Sky Hard Drive & the last fargin episode was fooked up due to loss of signal. What happened at the end?  >:(

Some heartrending pictures there alright. The ones showing the children's suffering are very hard to look at.

Bale is a diving b8astard but Arsenal's defence really is shite. Sagna just scores, no more than Arsenal deserve. Absorbing game it could go anyone's way now.

Parker deserved his Red that last tackle was very nasty.
It was a bad tackle but not with nasty intent.

QuoteGreat advert for the PL.
The game was great advert for Arsenal and in particular Wenger, regardless of the overhyped football quality of Spurs this season.

It was intentional IMHO, and regarding your opinion of Spurs football this season why do you think it has been overhyped?
