Away game on Virgin Media, home game on RTÉ2 -
Shamrock Rovers v Flora Tallinn to be shown live on RTÉ2 and RTÉ Player
RTÉ Sport announced today (Monday 16 August, 2021) that Shamrock Rovers UEFA Europa Conference League play-off Round second leg against Flora Tallinn of Estonia on Thursday 26 August will be live on RTÉ2 and RTÉ Player.
Having defeated Albanian champions Teuta in the 3rd Qualifying Round, reigning SSE Airtricity League champions Rovers face Estonian League winners Flora Tallinn in the play-off round for a place in the group stage of the inaugural UEFA Europa Conference League.
With the first leg taking place in Tallinn this Thursday, the return in Tallaght Stadium on Thursday week will decide who marches on to the group stage. The game in Tallaght kicks-off at 7.45pm, live on RTÉ2 and RTÉ Player.
Rovers confirm a 3,500 capacity for the game.
And attendance capacity increased to 3,500 for the game. All members and 2021/2020 season ticket holders should get in now. Some tickets may even go on general sale I'd say.
Pleasantly surprised by rte
3500 that's great news, hopefully the start of something more sensible in terms of attendance numbers for a sport that isn't bog ball
Us foreigners can still stream via SRFCTV/Inplayer though, yes? I'm UK based.Quote:

got mine sorted anyway :)
Edit, it's behind a wall for members and st holders until Friday.
In other news, Sheriff Tiraspol - who lost to Dundalk last year - beat Dinamo Zagreb 3-0 tonight and have one foot in the Champions League group stages.
Hope for Rovers et al - and hilarious to see it happen when UEFA change the competition to reduce smaller clubs' chances of getting in
Not sure what Kelly expects uefs to do when their own organisations aren't supporting them or funding them properly. Always find Lisa Fallon very articulate and not just some knee bending to gender balance like the BBC

"European rewards should benefit all LOI clubs" - but it does, through the solidarity funding, which varies depending on how far clubs get in Europe.
Sounds like Kelly is asking for something that already exists.
You'd think he'd have known about the solidarity funding.
Will the game be available for stream on Loi TV?
Asking as an overseas viewer
Maybe it's no harm to have voices calling for spreading the money wider to counterbalance the top clubs insatiable desire to lock it all up for themselves.Quote:

Am I right in saying that this is the national broadcaster saying more should be done to help fund development in the league of Ireland on the show they cancelled because there wasn't enough interest on account of the fact they never generated any when broadcasting the games they never paid the clubs for?Quote:

Wasn't there talk that if Dundalk reached the CL group stages in 2016, it could have gone up to €3m or something?
is it only Premier Division clubs that share it though?
Yep the 3M figure is correct if they had got into the CL group stages.Quote:
