Montrose today to welcome home the Irish broadcast team from RTE. Over 40 reporters and crew from both sport and media sections in RTE attended the games to give as comprehensive a view as possible on happenings in London, at times it was difficult to tell whether they were a broadcasting leg of team UK as they seemed more interested in how team UK were doing. Now safely back home a spokesman for RTE said while they were exhausted they were looking forward to the world cup in 2014 which will be their next big outing and that its less than 2 years away really. "Every year can't be like 2012 what with European championships and Olympics but we are thankful when years like this come round". Meanwhile things should return to normal in RTE within the next week or two.

LOL
However , 'normal' in RTE isn't terribly enticing.
P.S. Anyone know what the drinks bill came to ?

It was one last hurrah for the rte broadcast team, as with the new director general coming in, there will be redunduncies
Was this an in house celebration ?
Have wondered for over 50 years as to whether RTE represented the views of middle Ireland or just a specific small coterie of Dublin based administrators . Particularly as regards sport , soccer seemed to be the priority interest , including Man U et al .
My jury is still out .

A spokesman has confirmed that RTE represents the views of "Pale" Ireland, in fact for a small number of staff looking further than Lansdowne Rd or the National Yacht club in Dun Laoghaire is not within their compass. In fact it takes a large cheque book to shift some of the staff he confirmed.
Further questioned he confirmed the real Olympics ended for RTE with the elimination of Annalise Murphy.
It is expected the drinks and make up bill and cost of those hair dos (and that's only the men) will finally speed up the D.G. to action though like the government it may take some years yet!!!!!

R.T.E is'nt as bad as tv3 when it comes to representing the views of IRELAND .TV3 were doing the papers one morning and they read out an article on the fact that after bills MOST families have only 100 euro A MONTH to spend apart from bills!! You could have heard a pin drop with their fake concern, alan hughes he's the worst.He probably never set foot out of dublin in his life.
You forgot to mention no-won-sun that Jimmy Magee and Marty Morrissey were proudly displaying their hyberbole Gold and Silver medals for the most biased commentary ever witnessed at an Olympic games, some of the British contingent believe the judges were got at?, but their appeals fell on deaf ears.

So true. We may complain enough about RTE and there's a lot to complain about, but I fear what life would be like if we only had TV3, and as for that breakfast show, just there to appeal to the lowest common denominator
