Episode 2942: Jacob Rees Murphy, Saint Stephen, The McGuinness Mentality, The Mannion-festo, VAR Revolt, Palestine Meets Phibsborough
While the FAI continue to scour the globe in their search for a manager for the senior men’s team, their former manager has got back on the saddle by taking the top job at St.Patrick’s Athletic. But within the walls of his Inchicore Castle some of his fiercest critics dwell…
Meanwhile, Michael Murphy has been waiting impatiently by his Second Captains mic since the weekend to discuss Donegal’s Ulster title, McGuinness mentality, and why counties like Armagh seem to freeze when it counts. Paul Flynn also joins us to analyse Derry V Galway, Louth’s performance against the Dubs and Paul Mannion’s genius idea for what to do with the provincial championships.
Branno takes in Palestine’s emotional clash with Bohs in Dalymount Park, while Ken details rumblings of a Wolverhampton led revolt against VAR.
