The Livescore app for Champions League coverage is ridiculously slick. Very cool innovation. Interesting to see how much usage it gets

TV still has its huge share but it’s hard to imagine anyone choosing the limitless frustration of the RTÉ player over an app like that.

They have a “goals as they go in” bit that shows every goal. It’s excellent tonight

805k is the figure mate

@Tim_Riggins please confirm

Despite crowds being back and the people’s favourite in the finals, a mediocre rating. Really poor for the GGA and a worry for the future.

Yep, and the spud hockey was way worse

Terminal decline.

It’s a figure.

It did peak at 1.064 million though :slight_smile:

The pubs being back open means you can add another 250k people to each of the finals I’d say

Yes it did, but we go with the official nielsens ratings rather than the press release

People don’t go to the pub at 5.00pm.mate

And another 200k watching on BBC
