RTE - Whats going on?

[joebloggs]

RTE are showing the Rangers game instead of Man Utd!!!! Whats the story there? They haven't even shown a Celtic game in the Champions League this year!

[tyrone exile]

well the rangers game is the onlu game on tonight with any meaning!

[joebloggs]

yea but whos interested in it? Even more people would be interested in Arsenal as they can play some nice football.

[his holiness nb]

I agree, its the best choice, something is actually at stake.

One nil Lyon btw!

[Gabriel_Hurl]

it's the only meaningful game in Europe tonight that's why

[clarshack]

rte showed the celtic v milan game at parkhead. rangers v lyon has more at stake thats why it is being shown. bit like the liverpool game last night.

Your woman Clare what's hername on the Sports news this evening mentioned "6 British Sides" qualifying for the closing stages about 5 times.
The Radio sports news is as bad these days as it's nothing but how ythe British teams did in Europe.
Why not close the bloody Ststion down and let's all look at Sky Sports like proper Brits.

Although I hate that myself and don't care much for soccer, there is a larger percentage of the Irish population that follow British soccer teams. They even refer to them as "us" and "we", so I would imagination that's why RTÉ highlighted the "6 British Sides".
