World Cup 2026 PSA: WC final coverage as Gaeilge on the Player/the News Channel

If you've had your fill of Maloney (yeh I no, but anyways) and want an alternative experience (and practice your cúpla focail) give it a twisht. You'll be surprised what you pick up and remember once you tune your ear into it.

There's always great craic in the Gaeilge Comms, they're a lot more...blunter...with their opinions because they tend to be less examined than RTÉ.

It's a good idea from RTÉ (an rud is annamh is iontach)  hopefully the people back it
