RTE coverage of the champions league final.

Does anyone have a copy of the RTE coverage from that night, including the half time analysis. I havent seen it and would really really like to get my hands on a copy.

Guy:Incognito

He went on about how Liverpool are still an average team and that the best team doesn't always win knockout competitions, but that the best team does win the league.

What rise are you looking for,was merely pointing out how it's a valid point. Chelsea deserved to win the league as they were consistent,whereas in Europe Liverpool were lucky (which is all you need sometimes in knockout comps, and lets face it, it's all the pool had going for them )

Need any further proof, just look at how Greece won the Euro championship

You do?! :eek: Does it have everything - the entire build up, half time, post match etc? Is it on DVD or video? I'd love to get a copy of that if possible? Any chance?

Going a bit off topic, can you buy this type of thing directly off RTE? Like say you went in and asked for the Ireland Holland game in 2001 or some world cup final or something, would they have it on tape and be able to make a copy for you if you asked them? And if so, how much would it cost?

I sent them an e-mail and this is what they had to say, it was an automated responce (In Irish and in English) but here's the important bit

If you do have the whole pre/post match buildup and analysis, I'd host a copy of this for others to download if you were able to send it to me... and assuming it's... errr... vaguely legal.

yeah mate that would be spot on.. pm sent

guys, if you fancy running off a 2nd copy, I'd appreciate it. I have highlights from sky, highlights from eurosport and friday nights program on sky, but nothing of the full match.
I'll supply a tape and all P&P.

Thanks,

The bit of RTÉ's coverage id like to see is the little text at the bottom right of the screen as they show Crespo's second and Milan's thrid

Guy:Incognito

Just back on. Its on dvd. It was recorded on 6hr mode on my dvd recorder so theres a bit of pixelation around the score and the likes. Its grand unless your watching it on a projector or something. Iv'e watched it a good few times on my 44" and its perfectly acceptable.

I have the original dvd here at home that still has the ads on it. On a HDD DVD recorder in work I have it with the ads edited out but im not back i till tuesday.I missed the first 10 mins or so of the builld up because i live a 10 min drive from work and only finished at 6. It goes through and includes the first hour and a half of "your on sky sports" ( phone in show after the match) with Neill Ruddock aswell.

The road to istanbul DVD released isnt bad either, it uses the ITV coverage, but it doesnt have much of the build up at all. Just the match and some celebrations,

Shred

Yeah Ste I have the official DVD, but I'd like to get sky's coverage with the bulid up etc as I didn't see it at the time. So what's the deal, is there some way to get it to Pie to host or can I get a copy from you?

Guy:Incognito

Since lots of people want it, the handiest thing would be probably to get the dvd to pie and he can host it.

Shred

Nice one, that'd be great

"The Clincher", eh? :-p



P.S. Did anyone see the "Sports Matters" program about Liverpools victory on Sky One on friday. Even though I'm a Rossonero (and a glutton for punishment to boot), I still thought that it was an excellent production. Well done to Sky for actually having footage from Milan city center on that night!

Yeah they were lucky alright. Lucky to beat the Champions of Italy, also beat the second best team in Italy, also beat the Champions of England and also put 6 past a team that had beaten Real Madrid 3-0 earlier in the competition. Yeah blessed mate, blessed
:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

^^^ can I use that as my sig pls!

PiE

If I do host it, it'll probably be an Xvid rip of the DVD, 'cos my upload is only 128k and uploading 3-4GB would take weeks

Shred

That'd do just fine Pie!

thats the one alright , I thought to myself for a second 'what happen if they pull it back' and then thought no chance of that happening .

So did I. Of course, your reaction to the comeback was slightly different to mine. :-p

I'm a glutton for punishment, I truly am. Still, I do feel honoured just to have seen that comeback. It meant so much more to me (in a bad way!) because my favourite European team (for 13 years) were involved. I didn't get a chance to say it on here at the time, but congratulations to Liverpool on winning the European Cup. Your names were on the cup from Gerrards strike against Olympiakos, but you were still a bit lucky against Milan in the Final (Dudeks wonder save from Sheva). Admit it. j/k

stevoslice

i'll admit it, the pool were lucky. especially against chelsea at anfield, garcia's goal, and gudjohnsens miss, it could easily have went chelseas way. but it wasn't luck that won them the CL, that was passion for the jersey, somethin that wasn't there under houllier, or souness, or even evans. (except maybe for julian dicks!!!)

but at the same time, chelsea were v. lucky in the league, e.g. to beat liverpool in january, and i'm sure there were a few more times in the season when they could have lost.

You don't win a major trophy without some luck (just look at Milans fortuitous win over Ajax in the San Siro in the 2003 Quarter Final.....or their ten minutes of just-hanging-on against Inter in the semi final), and Liverpool did have luck in the Final. I mean, I don't think that Sheva's disallowed goal was offside. On the other hand you've got Liverpool's penalty claim that ultimately led to Crespo's first goal. It all banances out and I could whinge, I could moan about Dudek walking off his line for Milan's penalties, but didn't Dida do the same thing in the 2003 shootout?

Long story short, Milan should have never lost that match, but they did and they have themselves, and a Liverpool team with extraordinary heart and courage, to blame.

What's the point of this confusing post? I'm not quite sure, aopart from stating my feelings on the Final.............trying to prove something to myself? I'm not sure, heh.
