Sligo Rovers Football Club can announce the plans for streaming our SSE Airtricity Premier Division games between June 11th and the end of the 2021 season. 2021 Match Packs also remain on sale for a limited time, as restrictions on outdoor events begin to ease in the coming months.
Streaming passes will go on sale shortly on a new platform to replace the WatchLOI platform which has been in place since last July. Prices for both season passes and one-off match passes will be announced by The FAI in the coming days. There will be 22 match days included in the package, as opposed to 14 up until the mid-season break at the end of this month.
Sligo Rovers will offer free passes for all our Adult, OAP and Concession 2021 match pack holders, in lieu of five passes from a match pack.
This offer does not apply to Super Reds.
To redeem please follow the instructions below:
- Take five tickets from your match pack book.
- Post them to: Secretary, Sligo Rovers FC, The Showgrounds, Sligo. (before Wednesday June 9th – streaming passes will only be redeemed once tickets have been received)
- Include a note with the tickets with your name and e-mail address (e-mail address is important as your streaming code will be emailed to you)
- We advise you to please send these in without delay as the season restarts on Friday June 11th and Rovers’ first game is due to be Saturday June 12th. (TBC)
- Once we receive the five tickets, we will send an email with instructions on how to access the streaming service.
- For any enquiries, please email colinfeehily@sligorovers.com or call 071-9171212
Non match pack holders can purchase a pass on the new platform directly.
You can still buy your 2021 match packs online or at The Showgrounds. This entitles you to 12 match tickets for Bit O’ Red home fixtures for the rest of the SSE Airtricity League season. These passes can be redeemed in 2022 should any be left over from this year. Match Pack holders will also be given priority to buy any European Match Tickets should crowds be allowed entry or to any FAI Cup matches this season.

The return of crowds at outdoor events is coming closer, and we are looking forward to allowing supporters back into The Showgrounds once more to support Liam and his Rovers’ squad.
The new streaming service is the perfect way for supporters to support the club with revenue generated set to go to each club and with over 100+ matches set to be on the platform, it is also great value. Crowds may be returning soon but this service will still be a vital tool in following the league and the rest of our season.
The 2021 SSE Airtricity Premier Division season now takes a break after game week 14, where the Bit O’ Red take currently lie in top spot, after last night’s win in Ballybofey over Finn Harps.
Bit O’ Red Chairman Tommy Higgins:
“We’re delighted to be able to secure a streaming service for our supporters for the rest of the season as this has been an important tool in keeping them engaged with how the team are doing and it allows them to also check out the other teams in the league.
With over 100 matches set to be on the platform from the restart of the season to the season’s end, the pass represents excellent value for supporters to enjoy the action.
As the Covid-19 restrictions begin to ease in the coming weeks and months, the service means supporters can continue to follow the team if they are not at the game.
It also gives supporters outside Sligo the chance to follow the team more than ever. Our match packs are also an important as these give supporters priority on matches and also the chance to redeem some Match Pack tickets for a streaming pass’’.
We advise supporters who buy a Match Pack online to state in the comments section of your order that you wish to redeem 5 tickets for a free streaming pass on the new LOI streaming service.
