Bradley did right.

There are assault cases everyday of the week, alot more serious than in this case.

If they are going to stick his foto in the Irish News then do it for every case then,

He does not deserve to be treated differently to anyone else

There are not assaults of match officials every day of the week by inter county players, these fellas are happy enough to have their photos in the Irish News when they are getting married so when things go belly up you can't really expect privacy.

What a crap argument. Are you pissed? Joe Public assaulting someone isn't newsworthy, a prominent footballer and public figure assaulting someone is. Not complicated.

He is a member of the public, is he not?

Don t touch alcohol BTW !

Couldn't help but notice live TV coverage of the Portadown-Distillery Cup Final yesterday in the same week that the Ulster U-21 trilogy between Tyrone and Down received zero TV coverage. One report says there was a 'bumper crowd' at the soccer game, another says Portadown had 1500 fans. There was more than 3000 at the U-21 game.

Surprised ?

BBC announces championship coverage

The cameras are set to roll on the 2011 GAA Football Championship
06 May 2011

BBC Northern Ireland has revealed its live television schedule for the forthcoming Ulster SFC.

Sunday week's preliminary round clash between Donegal and Antrim will kick-off their live match coverage for the summer. The Ulster SFC quarter-final between Armagh and Down on Saturday, May 28, which will go head-to-head with the Champions League final, will also be shown live, as will the two Ulster semi-finals on June 19 and June 29, and the Ulster final on July 17.

Deferred coverage will be shown of the other three quarter-finals - Derry v Fermanagh on May 22, Tyrone v Monaghan on June 5 and Cavan v Donegal/Antrim on June 12.

All matches involving Ulster counties in the All-Ireland quarter-finals and beyond will also be broadcast live, while BBC Radio Ulster will carry live coverage of all the games in the Ulster SFC.

Credit where credit is due, I have been on this thread several times bemoaning the lack of coverage from BBC, but their championship programme on Saturday night was excellent. I watched RTE's coverage after the match on Saturday night, and then watched it again on BBC on Sunday, and I have to say that BBC were streets ahead.

That great supporter of Gaelic Games, UTV, have just announced that Down are in the next round of the qualifiers after beating Wicklow

Maguire01 · July 22, 2011, 06:59:12 PM

BBC Newsline's preview of Tyrone v Armagh led by scenes of a scrap during a 2005 game. Presented by Mark Sidebottom. Absolutely shameful.

Redhand Santa · July 22, 2011, 07:43:10 PM

Sure as long as they got to keep Darren Clarke as the main headline it will keep them happy. There will be more people at the match tomorrow than any Ulster or NI game in the north this year - yet there games would have lead the sports news all week.
