The chairman of the organising committee says there’s a possibility that the game will be broadcast live on 25 September.
John Horan said those comments were “unhelpful”.

Michael O’Flynn, who is helping to organise the game, said this evening that a meeting is scheduled for tomorrow in order to discuss the matter.
A technicality in the GAA Rule Book could see the game played at the 45,000-seater stadium.
Michael O’Flynn said all that had been suggested by the GAA so far was a meeting.
The Gaelic Players Association have also released a statement claiming the GAA’s current stance ‘doesn’t align with our values as sportspeople.’
A charity match is scheduled for 25 September to raise funds of Miller’s family.
The move may fall foul of a 2016 ruling by the European Commission over a €30m grant from the Government for the stadium’s redevelopment.
The former Republic of Ireland footballer died of pancreatic cancer earlier this year.
The 45,000-capacity ground can only be used for GAA matches unless an exemption is given at the association’s annual Congress.
The benefit match for the former Ireland international will be held in September at Turners Cross.
