Ireland will definitely compete in the playoffs for the 2023 World Cup in Australia and New Zealand – but it still remains to be seen just how many playoffs the team will have to get through to make the finals. It’s a celebration, but not yet a party!

We talk Leicester-Man United, Brendan Rodgers’ sacking spell, Ten Hag’s grit and how Ronaldo the reject is still a red.

 

We bring you all the news from the Premier League’s transfer deadline day which brought to a close an unprecedented splashing of cash by the English clubs.

 

Plus there’s small man moxie, more referendummms and Steve G’s farewell game.
