    ‘token woman guest’.

    Aaron is obviously too busy watching twitters every move to have ever listened or watched second captains. They cover womens sports quite a bit and Derval O’Rourke is a fixture

      Pretty sure the line across the words is a regular thing on broadshe and is used for the craic

        Yes it is a regular thing and is usually used as an auld shly dig (Aviva, Guinness etc). In this case it really isn’t applicable.

      Am I the only one in Ireland that isn’t a fan of Derval O’Rourke? Really good at running and jumping over things and stuff, but not the best conversationalist. And doesn’t turn down too many tv/radio gigs either.

        I think she’s quite natural on the air. Not a huge sports fan, but there are more than enough rigid, dull analysts already (not naming any names…).

    They weren’t too far wrong about Nora to be fair, she wasn’t really asked much. Seemed to be McGeeney getting the majority of the chat followed by Stringer.

    This panel of experts should be on RTE reporting on Irish and English soccer. They’re talented, knowledgable analysts which is a lot more than I can see for that gaggle of neanderthals that we currently have (R. Sadlier excluded).

    Love the podcast too. But please, more on LOI – it’s a disgrace how little coverage it gets.

      The League of Ireland is getting enough coverage. It is a dreadful league populated by a significant minority of fans who are no better than common thugs. These knuckle scraping thugs ruin it for everyone and put off families from attending games. So no the league of Ireland has sufficient coverage
