Pter wrote: » Ah come on did you listen to the interview? If there is nothing new don't even bother with the paltry couple of questions Richie asked. But if you are going to ask, then push him when he gives a half hearted answer. He alluded to him and Roy being destined to fall out....well dig into that. Why not. You have him there. Instead Ken had to fill in the blanks after the interview.

Rumple Stillson wrote: » Not sure why my first post is about Richie Sadlier... Seems like a great guy and very funny but I don't think he adds anything as a presenter or pundit. Very shaky on RTE for the Super Cup, Duff and Kenny Cunningham outshone him. Find his accent pretty difficult to listen too also.

"Dublin is an LFC City" said Klopp, "I think there is nothing more guaranteed to really annoy supporters of the League of Ireland than the sight of the heaving Aviva stadium with 50,000 people all wearing Red New Balance kits, singing You'll Never Walk Alone before packing the stadium to the rafters for a game, friendly fake match between Liverpool & Athletic Bilboa" Are LOI supporters a homogeneous group? That is a podcast I want to listen to
