UTV & BBC & RTE & TV3

Should Tyrone win on Sunday, their All-Ireland final tussle with either Cork or Kerry will also be live on BBC Northern Ireland.

Shane Glynn, Editor of Sport, BBC Northern Ireland, said: "It was always our aspiration to cover Ulster teams in the All-Ireland stages of the Championship.

"But it's a complicated rights situation, involving RTE and Setanta, and we're very appreciative of the efforts that have been made by the GAA, both the Ulster Council and Croke Park, and the other broadcasters to secure live coverage on BBC Northern Ireland of these games for local GAA fans."



Who are jumping on the bandwagon now ??

Good to see the natural order of things has been restored, with Goals Will Come presenting the live Championship coverage.

how do you mean?

[Hereiam]

Would hardly think its costing them anything to show it. So in other words the BBC have got away without paying anything to the GAA. AGAIN.

  Goals Will Come is none other than Jerome Quiinn

yes, i know. amd what?

10 minutes gone, bring back Austin, just about to turn back to Lyster, Brolly and O'Rourke.

Christ I can hardly listen to them ... especially McStay - complete anti-Ulster bias and a very whingy commentator.

I often menat to ask - does Brolly actually train any team or is he involved with anybody?

We know O'Rourke trains the St. Pat's Navan school team - does Brolly do anything?
(Not a swipe at Joe - just interested to know)

I think Joe is still involved with St Brides in Belfast

[JMohan]

Is that a school or a club?

[Square Ball]

Violence mars Tyrone final win !


That was the headlines on the UTV news which has just been aired.


Not much from them all year and then this.


Typical all the same.

[bridgegael]

maybe noel mcginn knew that the match wouldn get bbc/utv coverage unless there was a bit of a skirmish at it.  so he took it upon himself to get the match top billing on the sports news-where it should rightly be anyway!!

[orangeman]

BBC has just showed it there as well - the presenter was smiling as he and his poppy told the story of the big row !!!!!!!!

[bridgegael]

steven was looking very smug indeed!!
