Was on the way back from a game yesterday and had RTE radio 1 on, the section before the start of the Ulster final they wanted to talk about the hurling the night before and how great the game was, John Mullane though had other ideas and got tore into RTE, which is his current employer on the radio, lets face it his isnt suited for TV (just a joke John btw, mine isnt great either)
He put his argument across very well and Des and Marie were a bit flustered, John also pointed out that there was very little coming from the players and other pundits. You can argue that its unknown that a game will turn out like it did the other night but with only so many able to watch it or go, it left a lot of people missing out on it.
Surely its time for a red button on the screen that allows you to shift to any game that is being broadcasted by RTE anyways, for the likes of the Munster championship they will fill their grounds for most games, so it won't have a pull on numbers at the game.
If you get a chance, listening to John's commentary, its brilliant, serious passion
