Episode 2476: Howe Kowtow and the Seven-Year Itch

We talk about Arsenal keeping up their two-point lead, Manchester United keeping up their 85-year run, and as Newcastle roll into the top four, Eoin tries to force Ken to give due credit to Eddie Howe.

After another defeat for Liverpool prompted fresh rounds of comparisons between this season and Klopp’s last season at Dortmund, we discuss the relevance of the “seven-year-itch” theory. If you are a Liverpool fan, the conclusions may disturb you…

Then we’re joined by David Sneyd to talk about Shamrock Rovers’ third successive League of Ireland title. How have they become so dominant, and where is the next challenge likely to come from?
