Ahern to meet footie officials over Sky deal
Taoiseach Bertie Ahern is meeting the Football Association of Ireland today for talks about its decision to sell the rights to home international matches to Sky TV in a multi-million pound four year deal.
The FAI move created a storm of protest when it was announced almost a week ago, and among those to stress their disappointment have been soccer fan Mr Ahern and Sports Minister John O’Donoghue.
