Viewers Can Vote For Ireland’s Greatest Sporting Moment In New RTÉ Series Starting Tonight

Can you remember where you were when Katie Taylor won gold in 2012? When Ronan O'Gara secured the Grand Slam in 2009? When Ray Houghton stuck the ball in the English net in 1988? Okay, maybe you weren't alive for the last one but some of us were. A new series starting on RTÉ tonight will debate which Irish sporting moment can truly be defined as our greatest. Each week, a panel of contributors will discuss which monumental events warrant a place at the top of the tree.
