RTE should not have Brady as pundit when Arsenal are playing, he is not impartial.

It works for Sky Sports

OK
the latest news is that he asked to speak to the executive producer of the programme and the deputy head of sport (Ryle Nugent - yes Ryle Nugent) came in from home to speak to him.

That's the thing about Brady. While it was all fine and dandy for him to do the Ireland matches as he is able to be partizan but when it comes to the club games Brady can't seem to leave the Arsenal hat behind him for the evening.

in fairness - dunphy puts his man utd hat on alot
and souness does the same ( although not to the same extent)

Hopefully Ryle gave him a kick in the nuts , told him to stop being a baby and to go home to his subbuteo.

While true Dunphy doesn't do it as much as he used to do it though.

Come on goys.

I hate Nugent with a passion.

He shouldn't be there in the first place. I mean for FFS he's currently an employee of Arsenal FC and he's there commenting on them. Does anyone else not see how ridiculous that is? Is RTE the only channel amateur enough and inept enough to be able to concoct such an arrangement?

Eh, don't Sky Sports have players in studio all the time? Injured etc so they come in to talk about their team?

i don't expect or want an impartial opinion from brady,i know he's heavily involved with the arsenal set up.. anyone watch thommo on the saturday sky? i just love the way dunphy goads a reaction and then sniggers and snorts to himself. only pity is that it wasn't souness that was the victim, dunphy would be in a van with big blue lights!!! brilliant tv, beats that smarmy lineker,hansen,wrighty whatever lineup hands down

To be fair I think even Dunphy would know what would happen to him if he started goading Souness

There seemed to be a lot of sour grapes from Brady all night.

Didn't seem to be in the best of form from the beginning of the programme alright.

Classic RTE coverage, love it. Game wasn't too bad either :rolleyes:

This stuff is worth the licence fee alone

I was convinced he was goin to walk out at the next commercial break after the "this was a set up..Diabolical" comment..And bill must have been ordered to cut straight through to the chelsea game after it to give him time to calm himself..He was in "anaylis" mode after that and didnt communicate with the pundits at all

JPA

Have to say I thought Brady overreacted big time.
He seemed to think that Wenger was immune from criticism.
What the other panelists were saying was fairly justified.

The comparison to John Cleese was just a light hearted joke.

Clip of it already up on youtube, minus the wenger clips & dunphy comparing him to the ministry of silly walks. It gets a lil bit spicy at around 1:50. Hopefully there'll be a fuller clip soon, with the wenger clips included

OPENROAD

Any links yet?

Souness was winding up Dunphy pre-match saying he had splinters from sitting on the fence, that's why Dunphy used that as a callback. Chippy was exasperated before the match even started, he expects Dunphy to single him out for windups so little jibes get to him more than they should, unfortunately.

And 9 times out of ten Dunphy will let Souness go first with a comment, I've yet to see that happen for anyone else on the panel.:p

jank

Well it looks like some clip upset brady, any chance of posting that clip!

RTE should get rid of Brady....not because of that, but because he gave away that Chelsea got through before they showed the highlights :mad:

I deliberately didn't check the results...:(

Bill's attempt at saving the situation being undermined by Brady's subsequent grin was brilliant tv.

CantGetNoSleep

The one day I don't watch the analysis...

Anyone else seem to think Brady had a few gargles on him? I said this to my mate before any of the agro kicked off. He just seemed slow with his sentences or something.

TBH I think Brady is usually good at being impartial when it comes to Arsenal. Earlier in the night he made a comment about Adeboyer which I was suprised he'd say, something along the lines that he's not a great finisher. He also echoed sentiments that Walcott hasn't really shown much apart from that run. (i'm not an Arsenal fan btw)

However,I do have a problem with how Rte treat the situation and for this reason I have thought though for a long time that he shouldn't be on the panel. For quite some time (a few years back) it was kind of 'secret' or unspoken of that he had a role with Arsenal. I wouldn't mind if they addressed it out in the open and asked him questions which imply they are talking to an Arsenal employee( like Sky do when they get an injured player in). But they don't, they seem seem to think that he leaves his Arsenal hat at the door of Rte and that they are talking to Liam Brady ex-Ireland intl. not Liam Brady current employee of Arsenal.

I seriously doubt that. He pretty-much always speaks like that.

Personally, I'd be curious to see the Wenger clip - missed it myself - only caught the aftermath. Can't pass any judgement before seeing what actually riled Brady up.

Utopia Parkway

Twas brilliant entertainment. The match was great and the analysis afterwards was nearly as good.

Dunphy is some stirrer.:D

Jazzy

just watching some old Dunphy clips. why do RTE still employ him after he gets pretty much everything wrong?

ironingbored

He was definitely right about Rolando being hype and a brat.

Beaucoupfish

Great stuff Newbie2 keep up the good work!

JimiTime

RTE punditry. The best ever!! Long live dunphy the wind up merchant. Talks sh!te most o the time, but entertains no end! brilliant. Thought Brady had a point, but way overreacted. Surely he knows what he's in for at this stage!
Anyway, brilliant again, RTE I salute you:D

ROFL!!! RTE are completely anti-Liverpool?? Good one!!:D:D:D
If you're wondering why Liverpool get more stick than the other teams in the big 4, all ya have to do is look at the League table.:)
This "anti-Liverpool" rubbish is spouted by quite a few Liverpool fans I know - basically they can't admit that they are inferior to Man U, Chelsea and Arsenal in the Premiership. (Not counting Europe - in fairness they're like a whole other team when they play in Europe.)

In fairness to Brady, it must be difficult to criticise Arsenal when he has to meet Wenger and the players every morning for work!
It would be better if Brady was kept off the panel for games involving Arsenal.
Still, you have to admit Dunphy, Brady, Giles and O'Herlihy make excellent television! (not so keen on Souness...man's a little dull!)
The pundits are nearly always more entertaining than the match itself.

Yep.

Sure look at Soccer Saturday. Phil Thompson gets awful abuse off Matt LeTissier every time Liverpool f*ck up on a Saturday afternoon. It's part of the fun and I'm the heads of RTE know what's going to happen when Arsenal f*ck up and Dunphy is in the same studio as Brady. They know it makes good TV so that's why they do it.

league form should not even be discussed on champions league nights, when arsenal were struggling in 6th place in the premier 2 years ago RTE barely made a whisper of it on champions league nights, strange..................

Mr E

Sorry guys, there is a soccer forum for discussions like this....
This isn't "Soccer - Unmoderated"

Moved (and I have a feeling it will soon be locked).

I'll leave it open to see if it can be salvaged. Soccer rules now apply.

pigman,

the point is that you are wrong.

can you not see that point ?

lots of tv channels use current players or former players who have links to clubs
