    Anyone know what the story is with coverage of this? Will it be on Sky Sports or RTE?

    If Setanta get it in Ireland then will that mean that it'll be pay per view? If that's the case then what would happen if Sky Sports get it in the UK because then any Sky Sports subscriber in Ireland would be able to see the games without having to pay Setanta.

    Seems like a bit of a strange set up.

    I've just checked and its on Setanta at €9.99 per match so I don't think it will be on Sky Sports. Very expensive though, €20 for 2 matches.

    The U-21's are live on Sky tomorrow BTW.

    Cant belive Setanta have gotten the rights. I disappointed with RTE and TV3, this was a chance for them to get the right to a few Ireland friendlys for a change and they miss out....again. i wouldnt even of mind if sky got it but Setanta?? €9.99 for a friendly match?
