Episode 1443: Delaney Agonistes, Hendo Unchained, KDB’s Nirvana
With John Delaney’s departure from the FAI expected – but at time of recording not yet confirmed – we discuss the latest developments at Abbottstown and how Irish football ended up in this mess.
It was another sensational weekend in what already looks like the highest standard of title race ever in the Premier League – with Salah returning to his best, Hendo forcing chunk after chunk of humble pie down Ken’s throat, and Kevin de Bruyne compensating for the relative lack of drama in City’s win over Palace with a superior Players Tribune interview.
We are joined by Rory Smith to talk about Liverpool’s win, how they have evolved since last season, and why this rivalry – at least between the managers – has been so damn respectful.
We’re nine months into the title race and not once has Klopp called Pep a fraud, or Pep said all the referees are Liverpool fans.
A piece on common bonds, mutual respect, and why City and Liverpool should be glad of each other. https://t.co/3cYpOTCekV
