There may yet be further opposition to the resumption of the League of Ireland season.

Yesterday it was confirmed that both the Premier and First Division would restart on July 31st, with promotion and relegation remaining untouched, despite the season being reduced to 18 games.

Sligo Rovers are one of a number of clubs said to be unhappy that two clubs could still be relegated.

Shamrock Rovers were the only Premier Division side to vote for the proposal which was ultimately passed.

Sligo's treasurer David Rowe says they feel "mugged" by the outcome.

Manchester United maintained their drive for Champions League football next season.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side impressed in a 3-0 win away to Brighton last night, as they returned to 5th place in the table.
Teenager Mason Greenwood opened the scoring, before Bruno Fernandes found the net twice.

The win extended United’s unbeaten run to 15 games, and moved them to within two points of fourth placed Chelsea.
