Setanta announces expanded National League coverage

January 27, 2010
Setanta Sports will broadcast live 13 National Football and Hurling League games this spring. The broadcaster's expanded live coverage will see them cover two live games most weekend's between their Setanta Ireland and Setanta Sports 1 channels. The coverage begins on Saturday week with live coverage of the National Football League clash between Derry and Tyrone at Celtic Park on Setanta Ireland, while on Setanta Sports 1, there will be live action from Páirc Tailteann as Meath face Armagh. The Meath versus Armagh tie fills the void left by the Mayo versus Galway clash, which has been moved back to the Sunday afternoon due to a planning issue regarding the use of the new floodlights at McHale Park. Other highlights in the coming weeks include live action from Cork against Kerry on Saturday February 13, as well as live coverage of the clash between Tipperary and Kilkenny in the Hurling National League on Saturday, February 20.
