They’ve picked the right weekend but no-one has told them that they’ve picked the wrong sport.
We’ll admit it, we like Sky Sports. Rachel Wyse is doing a sterling job, Peter Canavan is a whiz with his pitch graphics and we could listen to Jim McGuinness all day.
The worry is though that the two boys might not be on the rota on Saturday after someone penciled in hurling a day early this weekend.
After RTÉ’s allocation for the first set of quarter finals blew up in their faces with two hammering sessions in Croke Park, Sky are about to reap the rewards of having Tyrone, Monaghan, Donegal and Mayo on the same pitch in the one night.
They are aware that Donegal and Mayo are playing but, according to the channel’s planner, they’re not so up to speed with which code is being played.
We’re sure it’s an innocent mistake but, with Colm O’Rourke already firing shots at them, this won’t help break down the traditional wall.

Thanks to the good lads over at JOE.ie for this one. Honestly, they’re sound sometimes.
