It’s here, finally. As I write this to you, we are just 48 hours away from the start of a brand new League of Ireland season - one that promises to be the biggest yet. There are more supporters coming through the turnstiles at clubs around the country than there has been in decades.
More people will watch the League of Ireland on television than ever before and the same goes for those listening on the radio too. Interest continues to rise on a seemingly daily basis. If the LOI is a runaway train, people seem keen to jump on board and see where it takes them.
Here on Love Is The Drog, we enjoyed our first year - bringing you 180 posts here on Substack; interviews, long reads, analysis, comment, retrospectives, podcasts and more. Needless to say it was good timing; being around to document what surely is the most dramatic, most memorable season in the club’s history.
And now we’re back for more. With plenty of player turnover in the off season, heightened expectations on the pitch and major progress underway off it, there’s plenty to delve into already in 2025 - and the season proper hasn’t yet begun.
A return to European competition will make this a season to remember, whatever happens, and this year will also mark the 20th anniversary of United’s glorious 2005 FAI Cup triumph. The most comprehensive coverage of all of the above will be found on Love Is The Drog.
To celebrate the start of the new league season, we’re offering 25% BOTH ANNUAL AND MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTIONS.
Annual subscriptions are usually €70 but are now just €52.50 - just €1 per week.
Monthly subscriptions are usually €7 but are now just €5.25 - which works at around €1.30 per week.
PLUS - if you take out a discounted annual subscription, you’ll get a FREE, SIGNED copy of my book ‘Emerald Exiles: How The Irish Made Their Mark on World Football’ and a Drogheda United sticker pack.
When you subscribe, we’ll get in touch and arrange delivery for you. All part of the service.
