Very poor show from the Bridge, this could be a long season of rebuilding.  At least we can't get relegated!  ;)

Make sure you have a refund capacity incase a feed stalls early on.

The likelyhood of something going wrong during the broadcast could be quite high so refunding could be important if it was a subscription based setup.  Anyone any ideas how a pay per view system could be setup without spending a fortune?

Cheers for the feedback lads we will try to work out the nuts a bolts of it and make a call on it.  I'm sure the lads working abroad would appreciate it, if the club could make a few quid at it as well it would be great all round.

If a club were to stream their games online and had a donate button where viewers could throw in the £3 gate money if they wanted.  Do you think it would be a worthwile fundraiser for a club?  Or would most people just watch the game and not bother to donate anything?

If the clubs think they will get more income I can see a good few being in favour.  Its 3 guaranteed first round championship games for all clubs before we get to knock out football.  I think Louth and maybe Derry operate this system I'd like to know what Clubs there think of it.

Cross should have won it.  The ref's 'let everything go' attitude was certainly different!

Brillant by Loughgeil.  This should be a big boost to hurling in Ulster and Antrim in particular.

Its hard to like Nesbitt he comes across as being insincere and smarmy.

It is very funny. Pity they wouldn't point the camera the other way though.

The suits in croker won't allow them to show the game because of TV rights.  Another small example of the corporate madness thats taking over the GAA.

Does anyone know how the Down U21s got on in their game against Monaghan at the weekend?

I bet you already know the answer to that one!

I haven't done any running before but went for a quick run tonight, did 2k in 13mins and was fairly wrecked.  Any advice on what I need to do to finish this 10k would be appreciated.  Its a fairly tough hilly 10k as well.  Can anyone recomend a good android app which might help me pace myself and keep track of runs.  Cheers

Who will take over?  Kennedy or McCrea.  McCrea seems less hardline of the two.
