Episode 2976: Squid Games Championship, Tasty Quarters, Scenic Midlands, Marquee McManus
The Gaelic football season is the party that no-one was allowed to leave for large spells of this summer… but now the blade is being lowered with ruthless efficiency, and the narrative quickly moves on to those teams left standing.
Michael Murphy and Paul Flynn say goodbye to Mayo, Tyrone, Monaghan and Cork in short order, before we look ahead to this weekend’s All-Ireland football quarter-finals.
We also discuss the possible end of Conor McManus’ glittering inter-county career, a Cork-man manages to be both bored and infuriated simultaneously watching his football team, and Paul Flynn’s support for Louth wins him some Wee County love.
