They will block it from the Sky Digital transmission.

But, the game is on TG4, and if you dont speak Irish, and live in dublin, you could listen to commentary on NewsTalk106 ( the radio station ).

If you live in the country, chances are you can speak Irish

It will be shown on BBC3, it is only blocked on BBC Scotland. This will tell you how to get BBC3:

Also, there's a good guide of how to add the extra BBC's here in the ICDG Satellite forum.

Does this work with a Republic of Ireland registered viewing card. I know I set up some of the BBC1 variations before, but was never given the option for BBC3, 4, News, CBBC or CBeebies as shown on there.

Is this a new thing?

EDIT:/

D'oh....yes it is a new thing!!...this is really cool init

Yes, this will work with a ROI sub. Since the BBC went FTA (free to air) nearly a year ago you can have BBC News 24, BBC Four, CBBC, CBeebies, BBC Three, BBC Parliment & all the BBC One & Two regions etc. via the "Other Channels" route in the services menu (Not in the EPG). However BBC Scotland is blocked for games such as in the SPL. You'll have no problem with any games on BBC Three.

Hope that helps.
