Thankfully I was in Spain last week and haven't consumed any of the junior championship yet.

Had I been at home I would be out £70 at this stage for the fixtures played up to this point. God only knows what the price of all championship streams will run into but when you look at our neighbours in Armagh their offering for a tv product is far far superior and costs £180 for all championship fixtures and minimum 1 league game from each division all year up until now.

 That means we have paid for 1/3 of their season ticket already and all we have seen are 3rds teams with 1-2 competitive fixtures from junior football. I think TyroneTV need to have a serious rethink. Its clear and obvious people are willing to spend to watch the games but its too much and too often. Give the people a season pass!

There is no hope I've been banging on about this a few years. Sent CB a direct email for my reasoning - didn't get a response at all. £70 on complete Sh**e this weekend spent and it's only going to get worse because the price goes up in the later stages. I buy these games for my father who just stays home and watches games and i've always bought them cause the dodgy stick is just too unstable.

They say its the quality of the stream your paying for, yes i agree it's good but cut the bullsh*t, Paddy Hunter can go for one - Killeeshil where through on goal at the weekend ant werent even playing ffs. - Throw in another garyowen there too!!

Ive Mentioned this previously.  Its all about the cash.  The league fixtures in Tyrone have now become a joke with more uncompetitive fixtures than not.  People on here saying this is what clubs voted for.  Its not. Clubs didn't vote for U20s and Minors to hold up league fixtures in Tyrone.

The Tyrone county board are a mess and the championship is 'great' because is generates a lot of money.  It however does not develop players. 

Here's an example: If a club is beat in the 1st round of the championship in early September.  And they have a lad that is not involved in county, college or Minor - He will not play a competitive game from September to June. 10 Months. For the majority of teams it 8 months.



I think clubs need to make this point around the TyroneTV pricing. Its simply too expensive and quality wise its not any better than what Armagh offer. I understand some League fixtures Armagh don't provide commentary and it is stream only with a scoreboard in the top left. This would certainly be better than Hunter as you say, colour commentary does not involve shouting "SHAT COMES INNN"

I'm the same when it comes to buying the games I'm out a fortune because the sticks/boxes don't seem to be up to scratch either. and this isn't to say that Tyrone tv has been without fault because it certainly hasn't, there have been numerous instances of games cutting off audio cutting off etc. 

as for the fixture issue this has and is ongoing but its not robbing the general population blind as well as pushing the average punter into the hands of a box provider.

Affirmative.  Doire GAA has a streaming season ticket.  No reason why ours cant introduce one.  Fidel Castro would.
If you are asking did I support the Soviet Union, yes I did. Yes, I did support the Soviet Union.

My point i was making to Tyrone CB is that we don't want it Free/cheap - Say £200 for season pass, more people will opt for this and ultimately see more games rather than picking and choosing what to buy not to mention the commercial pubs and clubs that will jump at the opportunity to show all games. Even if you keep your County Final at £20, There's still a saving!! - At the minute your even forced to buy double headers if you have no interest in one of them. I paid the double header for my father then had to pay again to just watch Derrytresk game in my own home under a different email.  :o

Armagh TV is £180 (Includes featured league games)
Down TV offer 10 Round 1 Games for £45
Derry TV is £60  :o
Clubber is £199.99 (you'll have any amount of club championship games plus Clifford on demand)

Surely commercial revenue can make up any difference for Ads at half time instead of the usual "You wanna be at connollys of moy"
"But above all lads, enjoy yourselves"

Tyrone out of step in a lot of areas presently, this is certainly one and needs a much improved package, i don't even think its a price gouge at the minute, its just a lack of innovation

Cry more lads. a couple a poun. HF.

The Bearded One

The county board will not move on this, they  see the income from Tyrone TV as guaranteed and won't want to lose it. Offering a pass of any kind will impact income.

If they even had the foresight to offer a package for each round as a test to see how it compares.

This weekend we have 8 intermediate ties, test the waters by offering a pass for all games at whatever price and see how the numbers stack up.
It is what it is. Presumably.

Any Junior players who will be considered for the McKenna Cup squad so far going by current form?
