Sky deal ‘depriving club stalwarts from watching major games’

Kilkenny great Eddie Brennan has come out in support of Michael Duignan on the controversial Sky Sports deal and claimed it is depriving club stalwarts of watching major games.

The pay-per-view channel has broadcast live coverage of each of Kilkenny’s three Championship games this summer including last Saturday’s epic All-Ireland qualifier loss to Waterford.

Pundit Duignan used his Sunday Game platform to criticise the GAA for not showing the Kilkenny-Waterford game, which was only decided after extra-time, on a free-to-air channel.
