About LinkBacksJust wondering if Unionist-types in the North would immediately (with much disgust) switch to Songs of Praise on BBC1 NI if they had accidentally tuned in to Fermanagh v Down on BBC2 NI. Appreciate your help with this one.

Songs of Praise has a particular audience. I don't know its ratings but I suspect they would show a steady but not huge viewing public in England. I suspect the same kind of percentages in Scotland and Wales and probably the six counties. To that end, if you are a Unionist who doesn't watch every week there are loads of other channels you could watch if watching gaelic football was anathema to you......then again maybe Unionists watch GAA.....ya never know..........
Those who think they know it all upset those of us that do.........

This is what I was wondering, really. Do many Unionists watch GAA? Do Unionists watch RTE? I'd be really interested if anyone had any feedback on this.
I was surprised when a few with Unionist backgrounds were able to discuss GAA games in some detail. It seems many follow them on TV but would never be found attending a game. One guy became interested when one of the most prominent Tyrone players turned out to be a work colleague.
Should their be a distinction between unionist and protestant when it comes to playing GAA there are players in the GAA in ulster that are protestant that wouldn't be unionist
I'm more interested in whether people of a Unionist background (who consider themselves British) have any interest in GAA and Irish culture in general, regardless of what religion they are.
