BBC Northern Ireland has secured a new four-season deal to provide live coverage of Ulster's matches in the Guinness Pro12.
In the league section of the competition, BBC TWO NI will broadcast Ulster home and away games which are not being shown live on Sky Sports.
The matches that Sky select will be live on BBC Radio Ulster.
BBC Northern Ireland has also secured live TV coverage of any play-off match involving Ulster - including finals.

It appears that the 2 roles (Dir. of Rugby and Head Coach) will be now be amalgamated. Note that Ulster was the only province where the roles were separate.

As already asked, anyone know if things not going well in the background?
Has there been a recent ( past season ) new head of operations appointed?
All seems pretty strange

I just hope this isn't more to do with Humphreys having concerns about the viability of Pro12 rugby and the ability of the Irish provinces to compete for big name players going forward. That would really be an indictment and add to my uneasiness concerning the future.

No wonder he wasn't too cut up about Afoa going!

Good deal for Ulster. We probably cant sell the naming rights to the Sportsground. Not sure it would be worth while at the moment anyway. Let our stock rise over the next few years, and get a better deal
