Disgraceful comments from Murph about Razorlight, Up All Night is a great album 😡
There’s a lot more to Katie McCabe’s story than the manager that had her playing hoofball for a few years and left after her contract expired..
On today’s podcast I can’t bring myself to get worked up about workers’ rights when it comes to top level soccer. Not because I don’t think the workload is fair on them but because there’s so many other things to worry about that are more meaningful and my capacity for hand-wringing about the thing I throw on in the background a few days a week isn’t very high.
Let them eat cake and figure it out amongst themselves, strike or no strike.
The new CL format is brilliant for Celtic and for me that’s more than enough reason to be thankful for it.
Didn't Pauw say to Richie that Katie rang her after she left and they left it on good terms.
Would have brought down the buzz too much in a Live show.
I was glad they didn't go near that nonsense myself
Yeah, I noticed the same. She probably told them in advance she wouldn't talk about it
Strange that there was no mention of the Vera Pauw situation in the Katie McCabe chat. I felt it was the elephant in the room and was such a cause of discussion at the time that I think it warranted at least a probing question to see if we could get any insight.
Evidently it's the same person Heimir wants to be manager..
Did you listen to the football podcast? They talked about shels derry and dundalk after the 40min mark
Murph's "inexactitude" went down like a lead balloon.
it was mentioned. They’ll be covering it on the world service.
I think it's a bit disappointing that second captains haven't even mentioned the fiasco at Dundalk.
He really wanted John O'Shea to be manager so not sure how much I'd trust his judgement.
Apart from stanning for King Steo after it was blindingly obvious he was way out of his depth and drowning in the national job Ken’s been pretty much on the money. Just because you disagree for very personal reasons it doesn’t mean he’s a bad judge.
Ken is a snide who isn’t a particularly keen judge of the Irish national team on previous evidence and struggles to admit when he gets it wrong . That’s his default setting on a mic. Probably not in real life.
Was O’Neill rude to Ken in a press conference or something? Ken really doesn’t seem to like him
Ken can’t help being snidey about Martin Oneill calling Doherty for what he was years ago.
As a Wolves supporter I can tell you it’s bizarre anyone thought Matt was a very good defender at any point in his career. At his best he was a very good right wing back with license to run up and nod in back post headers from crosses, something we are too shite at international level to do and Wolves don’t have much interest in doing since Nuno left.
I wouldn’t really be surprised if Matt Doherty wasn't trying. Maybe he's just become **** but don't get the impression he cares all that much
I hated everything about the National Stadium. Awful seats. Tiny toilets. Queue for the bar was massive. Sound was poor.
They said in Fridays podcast the "Gangs All Here" event(s) will be in the Gaiety with details this week. Gaiety Theater be good.
saw a gig there and it was absolutely shít. Ended up leaving halfway through because the sound was so bad. Bar situation is a mess too.
Don't care where the live shows are as long as they don't go back to the fúckin' National Stadium again, place is a complete dump.
I thought the interview with Spider was really good too. I wasn't expecting it at all which added to it
I'm not defending them, it's more like I'm laughing at people whining about 20 seconds of ad per year in a podcast that has 6 episodes a week pretty much 52 weeks a year.
Anyway, Petit seemed pretty cool.
It's well worth getting. I listened to it on Audible and it's one of the best sports biographies I have read/listened to
The Racket by Conor Niland is £1 today in the Kindle store
Petit interview was good but I thought very short. Lots of sound bytes. Even he was surprised it was so short...no issues with advertising extra sponsors. Every pod does it.
In general the content quite poor this week I thought. I avoid Irish football stuff now as it's so negative from them.
Thoroughly enjoyed the interview.
Thought that was brilliant. The lads are painfully left on stuff like that so was great to hear them put in an awkward position. Although Petit was 100% correct in what he said obviously you're not allowed say it anymore.
Leaving out Waterford is a slap on the face.
