Cheers.
Watched 2/3 of game tonight. Poor crowd for biggest club in Ireland.
Terrible cheating from Dennehy (every week) and K Brennan, no punishment from ref.
Poor ref; dirty play from McCabe, he looks the type
Still Shamrocks are better to watch under Kenny than last year.
http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/irish...eague-leaders/RTÉ Television will broadcast live coverage of two Airtricity Premier Division matches next month.
League leaders Sligo Rovers will feature in both games as they host Bray Wanderers on Saturday 7 July in The Showgrounds and then visit The Brandywell to meet Derry City on Friday 13 July.
The matches will be the 13th and 14th live Airtricity League games broadcast on RTÉ Two so far out of a record 24 games planned this season.
The clash between the Bit o’ Red and Bray will see Airtricity League Live coverage begining at 3.30pm on RTÉ Two as Peter Collins is joined at the Showgrounds by Tony McDonnell.
The match kicks off at 3.45pm.
Rovers will then travel to the Brandywell to take on Derry City on Friday 13 July.
Coverage will begin at 7.00pm on RTÉ Two as Peter Collins is joined in studio by Pat Dolan with the match kicking off at 7.05pm.
The matches will also be streamed live on RTÉ.ie worldwide with highlights featured on MNS.
Sligo fans do love those Saturday afternoon televised games.
Televised game against bray another blow to the gate..
In 9 weeks Sligo will only have 2 home league games and 2 cup games.
Probably 7,500 through the gates with the 2 cup games being a split gate. Harsh stuff..
Just once, I'd like to see the 'traditional' lineup of RTÉ panellists cover a LOI game. Imagine the talk between Bill, John, Eamon and Liam at half time during a Shamrock Rovers v Bohs match.

Giles was co-commentator when Pats beat Shels in 1998. Walkinstown lad Paul Keegan was on loan to Pats from NE Revolution and Giles called him the American lad a couple of times. Always remember that.
It'll be Sligo's 4th home game on TV. Rover with 2 the only other club to feature more than once

That was in the days when I hardly knew the League of Ireland existed, I did watch the games on television though and I had a soft spot for Pat's back then, I must have been influenced by that commentary because I definitely recall thinking he was American too.

So you had a soft spot for Pats when we were winning the league and now you have a soft spot for Rovers as they are champions? Fecking glory Hunter
Here on a technicality.
Still like going to the odd Pat's game too. Been a while though. Even have a Pat's/Hertha scarf from the game in the RDS!So you had a soft spot for Pats when we were winning the league and now you have a soft spot for Rovers as they are champions? Fecking glory Hunter

Think we've only played 2 home games at 7.45 on a Saturday
Its a pity Rte are not showing Pats v Sligo next Sunday as its has potential to be one of the games of the season
I presume Rte wont show another Live game until Olympics are over, as Rte will have Olympic coverage till half 10 every night, MNS will be on later and might only be a 30 mins program.
That will never happen. Bill Herlihys 'O'Herlihy Communications' company are entrusted will the coverage of foreign / English / Scottish / European / World football for RTE, and RTE look after the domestic coverage. O'Herlihy Communications just aint interested in the National game, just the foreign/international side of things.
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
Seriously .... FFS, that is brutal ..... will the GAA coverage be affected by that as well? Yeah right it will.

What's the story with Setanta and domestic games now? As far as I know, RTE have first refusal on games but after that they're up for grabs?
I know they are showing Rovers CL game during the week, as for League games I haven't heard anything, hopefully they will announce some Live games during Rovers game as there are some good games on over next few weeks
