The League of Ireland is on a roll - but it hasn’t always been this way.
The domestic game has so often veered from crisis to catastrophe over the course of its imperfect history.
Yet it survived, and flourished.
In this series, veteran Irish Sun chief sports writer Neil O’Riordan will take you back in time to when pitches were awful, terraces empty, and tackles over the top.
He will meet the legends of the domestic game to discuss the moments which defined them, made their careers - and the legend of the league.
The gloves are off, and nothing is off limits.
This is your LOIfe.
Episode 1 premieres on Thursday February 13 wherever you get your podcasts.

Shelbourne cup final hero Greg Costello arrived back from England after being let go by World Cup winner Ossie Ardiles to a league he knew nothing about.
Over the course of the next decade and more he established himself as one of the characters of the game, enjoying success at home and in Europe.
He lifts the lid on a boozy pre-season incident that belongs firmly in the past, a ham sandwich-related meltdown from Damien Richardson, his fury about being being made a mockery of by a former team mate and why he never expected to get one final chance at the mighty Shamrock Rovers.
This is your LOIfe is brought to you by The Irish Sun.
The series is produced by APodcastGeek.
It was written by and executively produced by Neil Cotter and Nicola Bardon.
