Anyone know if they will be showing some goals from the odd first div games or is this purely a premier div programme as opposed to a loi programme ?

Poor grounds, crowds & quality. We are trying to promote the eL & hard enough without showing 1st division games.

looking forward to it myself. The cameras were following round Shane Barrett all week and went onthe bus with Rams to harps.Might have been the reason for Barrets poor performance

It is being billed as all the goals from the Premier! I'm fairly sue 1st Division is not included.

Feck the 1st division...........they will only bring us down like they did to themselves.

Show only the top league, .......do they show championship games on RTE on a sat night? FFS we want to improve our league not fecking destroy it.

Judging by the attendances thread
Shels V Dundalk had more at it than the
UCD V Derry Match and only 54 less than Finn Harps V Cobh and about 400 than Bohs Galway match.

Add to that Dundalk had more away fans than Derry, Sligo, Bray and Bohs.

So your saying that if a team is in Div 1, you just forget about them and you want to promote Irish soccer

Im confused, how does forgetting about the Div 1 solve anyones problem. Why not develop the skill level of the football in both leagues, but no, you think we should just forget about Div 1. If Pats were to be relegated you wouldnt be happy with this treatment.
Its the Eircom League of Ireland, which is 2 divisions not the Premier Division.

As for poor quality, were you watching the league champions playing tonight because Dundalk Shels was twice as good in quality last night. At least both us and Shels tryed to keep ball on ground.

Use call yourselves Eircom League fans?????
