Virgin Media to broadcast their first ever League of Ireland game via IrishTimesSport
The FAI have expressed delight at Virgin Media joining RTÉ in broadcasting League of Ireland matches. The first offering is the Dublin derby between Bohemians and Shamrock Rovers from Dalymount Park on Friday, April 7th.
RTÉ sporadically show domestic soccer on Friday nights, while also broadcasting URC rugby and other live sport throughout the calendar year, but Virgin’s arrival adds some much-needed competition to the space. “It comes on the back of multiple sold-out games across the League of Ireland in 2023 and demand for more high-profile fixtures to be broadcast,” read an FAI statement.
