Talbot Bing Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I see that we will be listening to our Gaelic cousins for the next 4 years at least. Just a pity there isn't a function button to switch it to English but least they are showing it I suppose. Annoyed that STV couldn't at least have bid for it showing it on one of their local channels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ex-german exile Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 My sons learning gaelic in school and I've picked up most of the numbers - it makes the rugby a lot easier to follow, assume it will be the same with the footie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmontheloknow Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Unless there's an early goal expect a lot of nonny-nonny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotstvo Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Certainly their coverage of the pro-12 has had English commentary on the red button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glensmad Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 There are next to no junior teams in the Gaelic speaking areas of Scotland. It's just the BBC trying to raise their viewing figures to justify BBC Alba's existence, the same as they do with the Petrofac Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shannon Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 The half time segments and pre match build have been good when covering the Juniors and in English too. Probably superior to BBC Scotland pundits and analysis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lionel hutz Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 and the Pro 12 and the SPFL league games that both have higher viewer numbers than the Gaelic speaking population I'm amazed if they get over 60,000 viewers for a SPFL League One match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are the words of a man who believes himself to be a know it all, yer more like a knows fu*k all. U would think ud be happy that the junior game is getting coverage on a national tv channel regardless of the channel that is screening it. The last few have been sore on the eyes to watch. BBC scotland or STV wouldnt touch it wae yours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitburn Vale Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Fair play to Alba for showing the final,as has been mentioned their match programme is really professional and there's enough of it in English for everyone to get by on. Shouldn't be knocking anything thats giving the juniors publicity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
