Sky deal should be applauded

Well done FAI on negotiating an excellent non-pay-per-view deal with Sky. By all accounts, the offer made by RTE for TV rights would not finance a camogie competition, never mind a vibrant, professional international soccer squad.

Sky deal should be applauded

Of course, the begrudgers, critics and pretend Ireland supporters will be spinning their anti-Ireland/ FAI sleaze once again. These are the same type who laughed at our wonderful Irish team, led by captain fantastic Steve Staunton, before the World Cup.

The pretend Ireland supporters, who support fashionable English clubs, would never lower themselves to promote or support Irish club soccer, be it senior, junior or schoolboy levels. They prefer to shout “come ye boys in red; oh, Beckham is superb”. Please lads, give us a break and stay away from Lansdowne Road.
