Enjoyed Tim Vickery as always, and it was good to hear him talk about the Club World Cup's importance to other parts of the world. "Just because you don't care about it" etc.

Vickery is always great value, just a fountain of knowledge on the South American game and he has a nice easygoing voice that's very agreeable to listen to on the commute.
I wasn't even arsed putting the telly on for the Luxembourg match, so can't really criticise RTE for no panel. They rightly deserve criticism for arrogantly announcing they had secured LOI rights before a deal was struck and VM nipping in ahead of them. But Fanning's criticism here about the panel felt very forced, though to be fair, everything that dullard says sounds forced.
