Setanta Sports confirm more live televised matches

Cork City’s fixture against Dundalk at June 19th will be broadcast live on Setanta Sports, it was confirmed today. The Rebel Army host the Lilywhites at Turner’s Cross as Paul Doolin’s side attempt to maintain their title challenge, and football fans will be able to follow the action live on Setanta Sports Ireland.

The broadcaster has also confirmed that it will screen live coverage of St. Patrick’s Athletic v Shamrock Rovers at Richmond Park on July 4th. Jeff Kenna’s Saints host the Hoops looking to close the gap on their city rivals in a match that will also be screened live on Setanta Sports Ireland.

Setanta Sports will this season screen a total of twelve live League of Ireland fixtures, as well as the EA SPORTS Cup Final.

They are showing a game outside of Dublin, that's a disgrace, I can't believe it. Someone should write to them and tell them how they are going wrong, don't they know it's a Dublin league?

Wait until the FAIures find out about it, they'll put an end to it.

Fears intensified for the future of Setanta last night as it emerged it has defaulted on a payment to the Scottish Premier League. Sources north of the border have confirmed a routine payment to SPL clubs, thought to total about £3m, did not arrive as scheduled yesterday

Interesting

Setanta Ireland is pretty much autonomous

I believe that is correct. All parts of Setanta are separate.

[Black and White]

Bohs - 6(Soon to be 7)
Rovers - 3(Soon to be 4)
Sligo - 3
Dundalk - 2(Soon to be 3)
Cork - 2(Soon to be 3)
Galway - 1
Derry - 1
Pat's - 1(Soon to be 3)

You can add Drogheda to that list as Setanta showed Bohs v Drogheda 3 weeks ago!

Will RTE or TG4 still show live games this season? If yes - when? Because I can't watch Setanta in Germany but want to watch LoI soccer live...

Just wait until TG4 start showing you every second week

It's understandable that an Irish language broadcaster is going to favour Gaeilge speaking areas, plus i'm pretty sure they showed other teams too.

However the NATIONAL broadcaster should be a bit more unbiased.

After all if Bohs are playing in Tallaght, a Bohs fan has no excuse for not been there, my point been that commuting times in Dublin are less then what most of us face every second week and their alienating a potential away support audience by screening neighbours.

Also it's not like the EPL where barstoolers only want to see one team(Man Utd, they don't want to see any), by showing a good mix of clubs it would raise the profile of the league as a whole
