Second Captains

the youngfla makes me so angry!

I think my life is a little bit better for skipping that Miguel Delaney bit. Ken often plays the contrarian and you can tell he doesn't really believe what he's arguing but it's usually funny.

Like the bit about gaa players having to pay their clubs. Murph wasn't rising to that at all

Another David Sneyd fan. He seems like the most knowledgeable pundit going on anything to do with Irish soccer players.

Took me a while to warm to him but I must say I'm liking his contributions when he's on the pod.

He also does some good stuff on the42 which I've only taken notice of recently.

Yes the recent article about the Irish Kilmarnock player was very entertaining.

Ken reading the Charlie Austin interview was fantastic!

You get the feeling that he's more than happy staying and working in Ireland doing what he does and not having dreams of going to the UK and reporting on English football where there is more than likely a lot more money.

Except he does go over, and he just watches and reports on the Irish lads! What a good skin

"It had a wobble on."

More dramatic renditions of Charlie Austin verbal diarrhoea any time.

I'd give that two thumbs up

That treatment of the Charlie Austin interview was vintage stuff from the lads. I nearly cracked up on the bus home, you won’t get that kinda laugh anywhere else. Class.

For me it’s sunshine every time. Dubai. Sun. Done.

How random was that excerpt too. Fair play to them spending so much time on it, was in knots laughing! And he did totally sound like the darts guy, great shout!

For anyone that subscribes to the RTE Second Captains Sunday feed which runs during the Summer typically with interviews for RTE there was an extra episode on new years eve which I haven't finished yet but is a reasonable listen, some irish born US ambassador to the UN but not as boring as it sounds

Ken delighted Spurs are doing bad, an excuse to rip into Jose again. I love it tbh, long may it continue

I found the Jose segment absolutely mind numbing tbh.

The one with the historian talking about the RIC was very interesting, good thing they didn't go for that edgelord fella who thinks British colonisation was a good thing.

Was probably the best political podcast that they've done. It's usually very hit or miss depending on the guest but that was great stuff.

Thought Ken had some good stats, he acknowledges himself that the Mourinho stuff crops up too often but every once in a while I don't mind a good Mourinho rant and, tbf to Ken, what he's saying is true, a portion of the Spurs fanbase are already becoming ardent-Mourinho fans, same thing that has happened at every other club he's been at.
