Premier League of Ireland...begin.

Season openers for theEircom Premier League of Ireland are this weekend. Our dear, dear Sligo Rovers open with last year's runners-up, St. Patrick's Athletic. We wish the Bit O' Red much luck as the opening match looks to be a rather tough one for them. Definitely hoping for a great season this year.

While the above article makes it seem as though the season openers are tomorrow (Sat. 8 March), this article makes it seem as though Sligo has already lost against St. Pat's. I'm not saying anything else until I see something official on the Rovers' site (click their logo above) or on the official Eircom Premier League site... ok, it's official, Sligo lost their opener at St. Patrick's. Well, looking forward to next week's home opener versus Drogheda United.
