    Live Eircom Soccer returns

    After a near 2 month wait, Live Eircom soccer returns to our screens with the dublin derby between Shelbourne and Shamrock Rovers ( rovers first appearance of the season i think ),

    On a personal note, as i have to work on friday evening and cant go to the Bray game, at least i can bath in the splendid display of top class action i am sure that game will provide

    Match is live on Setanta 8.00 pm Friday

    OK seriously, that is good to see.

    Setanta don't have the GAA coverage to keep the station going over the summer IMO, so they should (in theory at least) have to turn to regular EL games. They've proven in the past that they put a good coverage show together so It's all positive. The more media exposure, the better

    Yeah i like Setantas coverage, they have more than one camera, they seem to be taking the sky sports platform, ( quick word with the manager at half time etc ), Hopefully this will be a weekly occurance over the summer with rte and setanta alternating, think i read that there was to be 30+ games screened this season ( think that includes any FAI Cup shown )

    Yeah the off-side show was cringe-worthy at times but at least they are making an effort, Eircom league weekly is enjoyable, the more coverage the better, or as Damien Dempsey would say "Its all Guuuud"

    Has it really been 2 months since the Shels Cork game?

    I like Setantas coverage in general but their commentators not the best imo. When they first did LOI coverage they had Declan Drake do the commentary, he's much better imo, they should get him back in.

    Is it just me or have Shelbourne been in over half the televised games so far? And if I remember correctly I think all the games so far have been in Dublin...

    Can't really remember the last Bohs one, but the Pats one was dire, I'll admit. My kid, who is a total Bohs fan, which by defintion makes him a total football fan, fell fast asleep.
    Still, I really think the schedulers should show a little more imagination than Shels with everything. They really are a bunch of sheep.

    Setantas coverage is top class - hope they stay with the league in the long run.

    It's just a pity the matches that they are showing is on friday nights seen as most EL matches are on fridays and thus alot of EL supporters miss the coverage of the matches

    I can't quite figure this out. The eL brings the interest of a kind of specilaist audience many of whom are out watching live football when the games are on.
