Episode 1733: Green Fingers, Football’s Fragility And Seeking Utopia
When will football be back? What should happen when it does? Will the old structures still exist? And after the pandemic, will people still care?
Rory Smith and Jack Pitt-Brooke join us to talk about what football could look like when it starts back up again. Is there a moral argument to write off the 19-20 season and move on?
But whether it resumes with the end of this season or the start of the new one is no different at all from a moral point of view. One doesn’t show the crisis more respect than the other, or demonstrate less self-interest or more self-awareness.

Plus there’s solidarity donks, McGregror music, a Second Captains watch-a-long, Eoin’s green fingers, Ken’s noble aims and Murph’s nothing.

Eoin has never been afraid to get his hands dirty by getting stuck in to some hard-hitting journalism and that’s not about to change today.
