Delaney has broken so pretty big stories. Stories that an Irish journo who hasn’t written any footballer biographies has done well to scoop.
he said Grealish to city was as good as done very early doors.
He's grand, think I've growning to appreciate his journalism a bit more recently. There's both better and worse out there.
The Scottish fella on today's episode was very good, the audiobed of Murph slagging Scotland is deadly
Big cover up in the media about what really happened - dozens, maybe hundreds, of "Parisiens" from the mostly immigrant St. Denis area, trying to storm gates which then had to be closed, robbing and assaulting mostly Liverpool fans by the looks of it. I feel the truth will come out about this over time. Problem is it's a form of truth that is very unpalatable in the mainstream media.
Thats been reported in most articles and podcasts I've heard
So I hear you're a racist now father?
Has it really been reported though? Everything I read focused primarily on police overreacting and shooting tear gas at innocent Liverpool fans. Very little mention of where and how the trouble actually started though. Where it does get mentioned it is just a single indirect vague throwaway line. No article I read really went into any details. Unless you can share an article I might have missed?
Please share any links to an article that discusses what happened. I'm genuinely curious.
Hahahaha! Criminals! A great bunch of lads!
I think it's only now starting to be expressed a bit more freely, one full week after the event. People are starting to get the courage to admit the truth because the initial reaction was to gloss over it and pretend it didn't happen.
"Big cover up ","Courage"? WTF are you talking about? The muggings, attacks on fans and locals without tickets trying to force their way through barriers have been reported on all week. I think you might have your own agenda here Wojtek.
As the legendary Ross O'Carroll-Kelly would say, "Yeah... no."
Wrong. The police heavy handedness and the lack of organisation have been reported on all week. The attacks by the locals on fans is buried way down in every article I've read, and mentioned fleetingly. Show me one article where it is mentioned front and centre. It was the cause of the whole disaster but got very little prominence up until the last couple of days.
I think you'll find that was the great philosopher Phoebe Bouffet. Could you BE any more wrong?
All articles 5 to 6 days old....

Any sign of Murph at tonight's match, thought I saw him behind Cody, don't think it was him though.
It said c**t, we meant aunt.
Fair enough. I stand corrected. I just didn't happen to read those articles. I suspect even more truth will come out over time. Sad that a Champions League final in Paris, on paper the dream night for most fans, would turn into a nightmare for so many. Paris as a city has really lost its prestige for me these days. Like London. Beautiful in the centre, great to visit for a weekend and then leave. Stunning facade but rotten to the core for the ones that live there day to day.
Curb your enthusiasm?
Terrible podcast today but trying to make a good podcast out of that Ireland match would be like trying to make a luxury birthday cake out of sh1t and broken glass. They would have been better off talking about Boris Johnson and/or stranger things.
I enjoyed it.
Could posters please elaborate more on WHY they like or dislike things? Makes it so much more interesting for the neutral.
If you had a drinking game for every time Jamie Wall said 'like', you'd be dead within minutes.
I do like his enthusiasm though
No coverage of the Kerry v Antrim game, slightly disappointing considering how good a game it was
Ken on the golf controversy was entertaining.
No 25 year old Simpsons reference though!
Have to say, I love the GAA coverage this year.
The football & hurling pods have been highly enjoyable. (All the more so when Ken says, well, anything at all really).
Ken needs to contribute to the gaa more. Himself and Murph make a great tag team
Took me a while to warm to Paul Flynn but he's a very good listen. Calls it like it is and admits it when he calls it wrong. Oisin McConville I always rated highly, knows his stuff
That exactly it when Flynn. Was slow to warm to him but love him now. Oisin is my favourite gaa pundit, pity he's not on rte for the Sunday game.
The good thing about Ireland losing is that you know you'll get a good podcast
