Isn't it Virgin Media who have the Irish rights to England games, so no doubt they're more than willing to help C4 block the games on their platform.
Guess this is technically C4's first "regional variation" since the ITV Schools days. A shame they can't do a bit more than just block the feed for the period - surely they can churn out a batch of Come Dine with Me during the match then Gogglebox during the highlights.
Looks like C4 are persisting with the ITV strategy of highlights not long after the game, which I've never quite understood but I'm guessing they have value. What's happening with the highlights of the other nations games - have the BBC retained them?
