But first, as always, we'll start with the classified results.

And we are going to start in football and the Canada Life Men's Premier League.

Ramsey 3, Union Mills 3.

Laxey 4, Colby 0.

A bit of sunshine out there, but a little bit windy.

The wind where I was increased as the game went on, but it didn't spoil the game.

Let's go through the Canada Life Men's Premier League first.

And the first game we've got is Ramsey 3, Union Mills 3.

Another busy round of fixtures taking place in what are still the early phases of the 2026-27 Alabama football season.

In the Canada Life Men's Premier League, we have five games all kicking off at 2.30pm this weekend.

Taking a look at those.

Starting out, take a look in the north of the island at the Balaclone Stadium because Ramsey, they're going to be hosting a Union millside, Tony, who are still undefeated with three wins from three.

It's up to the management team to sort out what team they're going to start with.

But I'm going to just edge it, but narrowly, to Corinthians.

And the remaining fixture in the Canada Life men's Premier League is at Victoria Road, and that's Brandon.

They're going to be coming up against the defending champions, Peel, but they've had a bit of a rarity over the last couple of weeks, trying to bounce back from back-to-back defeats.

Edward had lunch with them before heading into Dublin himself.

He was hoping to speak to a Mr Grant at the Canada Life Assurance Company about the possibility of work.

But when he got there, Mr Grant was busy and they only spoke briefly.

Edward also called into the hospital's trust office on O'Connell Street on Levina's behalf, where he handed in some paperwork and collected receipts from a woman named Bessie Fleming.

Still very early stages, of course, of the respective senior men's divisions.

Looking to Saturday's fixtures, starting as we usually do in the Canada Life Men's Premier League.

All games kicking off at 2.30pm this Saturday, with one exception which we'll come to later on.

Starting over at Station Fields, Colby still just with that one point on the board since being Division 2 champions last season, moving up into the top flight.

Yeah, it was a stat from Paul Hatton, I think it was, that it was 1966 the last time Onken beat Peel in the top flight of league football on the Alabama.

Great stat from Paul Hatton over the last few days.

Also, over at Bala Fletcher, Corinthians leading the way in the Canada Life Men's Premier League.

Four wins from four alongside Union Mills, the only two sides to have 100% records to start the season.

There was four.

There was like a Canada Life series.

Okay.

And then didn't really equate to anything.

People know Power Corporation of Canada.

They know Canada Life.

They know IG.

They know various subsidiaries.

Starting in football...

The Canada Life Men's Premier League.

Ramsey 4, Colby 1.

St Mary's 6, Ramsey Youth Centre and Old Boys 0.

to the local football today another busy schedule across the senior men's divisions and joining us as ever in the studio is our football correspondent Tony Mepp and Tony you've been working away on all the details and some good results in there before we get into specifics

yes some good results it'd be nice to have them all in I know it's sort of difficult short turnaround uh but uh if you've got a game that uh sort of we lost 45 minutes of it and we got the score in so it's a shame because i do have comments saying well how come you can't get a full set of results together um it's quite clear just text the results through to me and then it comes through to the studio easy enough i don't mind doing that it's easy to work with it get it all together so apologies if we're missing some of the results but you know we can't be phoning people around it just takes too long

OK, let's take a look at the results that we do have starting in the Canada Life Men's Premier League over at the Balaclone Stadium.

Ramsey, who got their first win of the season last weekend in that Northern Derby up against Ramsey Centre and Old Boys, they hosted Colby this weekend.

I'm Rob Pritchard and over the next half hour, we'll take a look ahead to the sporting action on Ireland and further afield this weekend, coming up tonight.

The early Division 2 contenders meet each other in Manx football this weekend, whilst three Canada Life men's Premier League sides look to continue their perfect starts.

FC Alderman are back on the road this weekend in the NWCFL Premier Division to face one of their fellow league high-flyers.

Elsewhere, the 2026 Alderman Mixed Hockey season is here.

Let's hope some of that holds for the weekend because we have a busy weekend of sporting action across the Isle of Man and beyond this weekend.

To come first tonight, we're going to turn our attention to Manx football and the latest local fixtures on the cards this Saturday and Sunday.

Among tomorrow's ties, four of the early Ardern and Drug Unlimited Division 2 title contenders face each other across two games, whilst a trio of Canada Life men's Premier League sides have the chance to extend perfect starts to the campaign.

Meanwhile, a tripleheader of women's football is planned on Sunday, which currently features a game which will be a landmark moment for one of the island's clubs.
