RTÉ's Premier Soccer Saturday Announces First Ever Live Fixture

RTÉ Sport has announced that RTÉ's flagship soccer show Premier Soccer Saturday will be broadcast in front of a live interactive studio audience for the first time on Saturday 30 April, in association with programme sponsors the Irish Sun.

This exciting new initiative by RTÉ Sport will allow audience members to interact with the RTÉ Soccer Panel in studio live on-air. Presenter Darragh Maloney will be joined on the programme by former Premier League players and Irish Internationals Ray Houghton, Ronnie Whelan and Kenny Cunningham.

Irish Sun readers will have the opportunity to win tickets to this live event and have the chance to be part of the lucky few to ask a question, on air, to some of Ireland's greatest football legends.

Geraldine O'Leary, Commercial Director, RTÉ Television said: "This is an exciting development and an example of the innovative way we are working with clients to maximise return on their investment. This event is a first for RTÉ and rewards The Irish Sun's support by allowing unique access for their readers to attend the event"

Paul Clarkson, Deputy Editor of The Irish Sun said: "Our paper lives and breathes soccer, so this partnership with RTÉ's Premier Soccer Saturday is a match made in heaven. Irish Sun readers and football fans in general are always looking to be engaged in fresh and innovative ways. This first live show fits the bill exactly. It's something that hasn't been tried before and we look forward to helping bring Irish Sun soccer fans from their armchairs and into the heart of the studio action."
