It was confirmed yesterday that RTÉ will carry live coverage of 18 league and cup games for the season ahead, with goals and highlights from around the country to be incorporated into the live Friday night broadcasts.
As first reported by The42, highlights programme Soccer Republic will return on a Monday night, although will be halved in length as a result of the removal of in-studio punditry and analysis.
RTÉ have retained the rights to show live coverage of Mick McCarthy’s senior Irish side in their Euro 2020 qualifying campaign, which kicks off away to Gibraltar on 23 March.
Eir Sport have also added former Bohs goalkeeper Shane Supple to their punditry team for the season ahead.
