Episode 1615: Chelsea Roller-Coaster, Live Show News, Katie On Doping In Boxing, Saracens’ Big Drop
The Champions League gave us a 4-4 thriller last night, including the maddest 2 minutes of refereeing we’ve seen in quite a while, and there’s Katie Taylor’s latest win – but the big news from today’s show is about our end-of-year live shows at Liberty Hall next month.

Meanwhile – Ken attempts to gaslight us as he compares Frank Lampard to Jurgen Klopp, and tries to get to the bottom of his magical powers. Alan Smith of Football London was at Stamford Bridge last night, having covered the Lampard Revolution all season, and he gives us the definitive description of every Frank Lampard Q and A.
Gavan Casey is back from Manchester, having watched Katie Taylor become just Ireland’s third multi-weight world champion, and he tells us why she’s becoming as loved in the UK as she is here. She was more forthright than usual when talking about drug use in boxing, and Gavan explains why that’s so relevant.

Plus there’s fun times ahead for Saracens, Ken tells us about Sonny Bill Williams’ latest career move, old boxing quotes, and dire Barcelona.

We ask Eoin Reddan and Shane Horgan if, given the Boks won, Ireland were right to be conservative after all, if we can build in some mental resilience for 6N, and what the next step should be in the giant fix that’s required.https://t.co/WjGUVdQDjI pic.twitter.com/wqMGnLHR9k
