Should have played the club IFC and JFC finals on the same weekend as Senior club final. Will get next to no coverage now.

It's a shame Armagh Tyrone and Monaghan Mayo aren't been shown live. The TV situation is a mess with Eir Sport gone, BBC should be able to put their names on TV not hidden away on the website.

And tbh Down Galway is a strange game to pick with 3 other Ulster games in Division 1 not televised. Too much on that the one time with Hurling now too.

It's BBC NI not BBC Ulster. All their scheduled games feature a NI team

I can't understand why the Dublin Armagh game on Saturday was blocked, yet both TG4 and Premier showed the two matches on Sunday not blocked.

I don't think they should be showing all league games live. For most fans there is nothing to stop them attending games especially a local one like Tyrone Armagh. Bigger crowds create better atmosphere at the games and I'm sure they'll be on the highlights programme that evening.

Is it not just sky in the north that blocks Rte?

It doesn't block much on it. That's one of the first time I've seen a GAA game blocked on it.

It's a Sky issue not RTE, though as you say I haven't seen it too many times
Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

imtommygunn

Yeah exactly. I am not sure why they did it. I suspect it was a Uk block forgetting NI. Hopefully it won't be done again.

People need to make sure that Sky refund their fees to some extent, as it is a deliberate failure to provide service. Then it won't happen again.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

I don't know if it has been raised on here, but two issues with the BBC have been getting my goat:


  • increasingly GAA content displayed only on the GAA page and not on the BBC NI homepage
  • the lack of radio coverage - Irish League soccer on all day Saturday and no radio coverage of the GAA, except hidden away online

It's like we're at the back of the bus.
