The League of Ireland returns to our screens on Friday as Dundalk manager Stephen O’Donnell returns to St Patrick’s Athletic following his controversial off-season switch.
O’Donnell guided the Saints to FAI Cup glory for just the fourth time in November but within a week had left for the club he captained to four league titles.
The manner of his departure was acrimonious as he was set to stay on with the Saints for another two years before reversing course when Dundalk sought a replacement for Vinny Perth.
