On Sunday our great nation rejoiced in the St Patrick’s Day festivities – but one small corner of Dublin 3 only had eyes for England’s FA Cup quarter-finals.

We talk about the all-time classic at Old Trafford, the thunderclouds of rage that are always ready to open up on players who dare to make the odd mistake, tetchy Klopp and Nottingham Forest’s 4-point penalty.

Then Ken heads out to Abbottstown where Sammie Szmodics was speaking to the media ahead of what he hopes will be his long-delayed debut for Ireland in the forthcoming friendlies.
