There are talks taking place between the proposed new ?25m a year publicly funded Gaelic TV station and the SFL. Their aim is to show Division 1 games live on Friday evenings, with the commentary only in Gaelic.

Bizarre as that may sound, it will probably generate larger viewing figures than anything else the channel will be broadcasting.

Friday night football has been rejected before at SPL level due to police concerns, but this may not be an obstacle where crowds are much smaller.

Interesting to see them thinking of ways to generate a larger customer base than catering purely to the few Gaelic speakers, dont agree with the funding and it will fall on it's erse sooner rather than later,especially if they dont get a place on the freeview platform,but fair play to them for attempting to be inovative.
