Released not long ago. Here's the first series of matches:

Fri. 7 March Cork City v St. Patrick’s Athletic Turner’s Cross 7.45 pm
Fri. 7 March Drogheda United v Dundalk United Park 7.45 pm
Fri. 7 March Limerick v Bray Wanderers Thomond Park 7.45 pm

Fri. 7 March Shamrock Rovers v Derry City Tallaght Stadium 8.00 pm
Sat. 8 March Sligo Rovers v Athlone Town The Showgrounds 7.45 pm


Delighted that City got Pats at home. Should be a good crowd versus the champions, and if they brought half of what they had last time, it'd be a good away crowd. I wonder if it could be moved for TV, though. Shame about ending the season in Oriel Park, though, but overall, it seems a good fixture list for us.

Couple of other good fixtures for the opening day, too - Louth derby and Rovers v Derry.

Was hoping we would be away first game of the season and home the last. Ill miss the first game. Bah.

Thought the champions always started their defence of the title at home or has that changed recently?

When do the first division fixtures come out?

Home start and home finish, two games at Richmond and only one trip to Bray in warm July, I'll take that.

Bohs away twice again, Sligo home twice again..

Would expect big crowds at the 3 highlighted.

We will be restricted to 800 odd tickets so be lucky to be over 2000 there altogether

17 home 14 away for us, its a new cycle.

Good to see the champions play two games less. Give the rest of us more of a chance. :pac:

Pointless fixture list since they forgot to include the Harps.
