A collection of my favourite and best photos from the League Of Ireland 2016 season.

The SSE Airtricity League of Ireland is the highest level of football you can watch in Ireland and despite it being imperfect, occasionally dysfunctional, poorly supported for the most part and woefully financed by the FAI, the success of Dundalk FC in European competition has shown the quality of the football and players in the League.

It’s passionately followed by the hardcore league of Ireland fans and I hope that my pictures do the #greatestleagueintheworld some justice!
