SPRING? Spring shming! I’m staying in to watch sport all weekend. I don’t recognise that large bright ball in the skies anyway.
One to sit in for: The League of Ireland season kicks off tonight. RTÉ are showing the first in a mini-series of Shamrock Rovers games over the coming weeks as they go live from Hunky Dory Park tonight.
One to Sky-plus: TG4 will show the Fitzgibbon Cup final. Get on it.
