    A power failure apparently, jeez what a joke RTE are, just give it up altogether RTE. Ive never heard of a TV station not having a generator backup, just what kind of operation is rte running, someone needs to get fired over this, this race has cost me money as i bet in running on betfair as RTE have faster pictures by 2 seconds than anybody else. has probaly cost me 300-400 euro.

    Do ye never learn?
    ...'Cos it's RTE!

    Other reporting crews such as BBC, ITV, even TV3 bring their own generators.

    RTE ran out of money half way into the race.

    Wait until you see what happens to the rest of the government funded entities in this country.

    They probably stuck the production budget on the favourite in the first off....now they'll have to auction off Colm Murray to a crowd of grannies to make up the bus fare back to Donnybrook...
