    I spent $150 for an annual Setanta Broadband Sub this weekend, just checked to see what time I need to take my lunch today to watch the game, and they're not showing it.

    Assumptions is the Mother of all F*ck up's
    Not sure why you can complain Setanta don't have the game TV3 have it. Setanta for pubs might have it but thats not a service for general public.

    i agree but to say that it is on TV3 has no bearing whatsoever on someone who is living in the United States, where it is being shown by Setanta Premium

    Mossy thanks for your words of wisdom, woody I hear ya fella but yes I'm in Florida, when you pay for a premium product with all the PPV events included you'd expect this sort of game to be in the line up not France V' Argentina, which been an exciting fixture all the same. Setanta is an Irish sports Broadcasting company this should be taking for granted when the national team are playing.

    How the hell I'm i going to be able to not view the score for 36 hours until its shown at 9:30 pm tomorrow. Twats

    So is RTÉ and, well yeah...ahem...nothing shown their either. Believe me, if you paid $150 to see Ireland play San Marino, thats a big waste of money. I feel sorry for the fans over there right now. To put it into perspective, Im going back to study instead of watching second half.

    Guru,

    thank your lucky stars you didn't have to watch that sh*te. We are seconds away from the worst result in our football history, failing to beat a team 195th in the world; and then Steven Ireland toes pokes it into the net.

    Stan was asked after the game if he would have considered his position if we hadn't won. His answer: "no, absolutely not" :mad:

    It would have just spoiled your lunch anyway.
