A weekend of football highlights kicks off on Thursday night at 10pm on Virgin Media Two with Mick: The 2nd Coming, a special programme charting Mick McCarthy’s move from the Virgin Media TV pundit’s chair to replacing Martin O’Neill in the Republic of Ireland hot-seat in November 2018 and leading Ireland to the Euro 2020 play-offs.
It’s a ‘Come on You Boys in Green’ theme across Virgin Media Sport on Saturday and Sunday night from 8pm, starting with Return of the Mac, reviewing Mick McCarthy’s appointment as Republic of Ireland manager for the second time, 18 years after stepping down in 2002, followed by all the goals from Ireland’s qualifying campaign for Euro 2020.
