Don’t touch that dial… here’s the sport on TV this weekend

Cork v Dublin and Tottenham v Monaco are among the highlights on the box over the next few days.

  • One to watch: The quarter-final double header of Monaghan-Tyrone and Dublin-Cork should not be missed.
  • One t0 Sky+: The Tottenham-Monaco friendly should be intriguing viewing, particularly given all the new signings likely to be on show.
  • One to skip: Now that the Tour de France is over, this weekend’s cycling doesn’t particularly whet the appetite.
