- Daniel McDonnell and Dion Fanning joined Joe Molloy to preview the Republic of Ireland’s match-week, which sees Heimir Hallgrímsson’s men travel to Finland and Greece. The team debate whether the head coach’s approach will reap rewards, how much expectation we should hold, and ask if victory here can change how we talk about Irish football.

If anyone wants a ridiculously useless fact, Dion's uncle played Father Frost in Father Ted. Or as Father Damo refers to him 'Frosty'
Dion Fanning: "I remain a Stephen Kenny advocate in principle"
The support that Stephen Kenny got from the media was always stunning to me. His teams produced the most abject performances I have ever seen from Irish teams....yet the media refused to call it like it was.
Edit: Listen further to this, I think these journalists are too emotionally invested. The way they talk it's almost like they have been traumatized by the losses. This is the mindset of a fan. These guys need to divorce themselves from fandom.
.. I could not agree more.. this is what Kenny left us with
Yes indeed, the Stephen Kenny “experiment” was a harsh but valuable lesson for Irish media types like Dion Fanning, who thought they knew more about football than lifelong professional football people like Giovanni Trappattoni and Martin O’Neill.
@@davidpryle3935.. He doesn't seem to have learned his lesson???
Dont think its fair to say Doherty has been scapegoated or it was just a reaction to Greece. He has been absolutely appalling for years outside of a very small handful of performances and I don't think you'd find many going to the Aviva who'd think otherwise
Spot on with your observation!
..i switched off when ,the guy with the glasses said ,he remains a Stephen kenny fan...does this guy not understand the players lack of confidence and the state the team is in ,is down to Kenny..unbelievable
In fairness the confidence was terrible before that in the Mick McCarthy era
@@paulcolin9926.. we were one goal from getting to the euros under Mccarthy
Great to hear Dion get a chance to speak 😂
Absolutely. Brolly cuts across him constantly, it makes that podcast impossible to listen to.
.. he talks absolute garbage
Great new set.....and bright. Love the chat.
I find Dion Fanning’s opinions on Irish football to be worthless. Not long ago, he was on Off The Ball criticising Stephen Kenny for not being adventurous enough. This is the same pundit who once criticised Martin O'Neill for not starting a 17-year-old Troy Parrott, even though Parrott was only in Spurs’ youth team at the time. In the lead-up to Euro 2012, Fanning went as far as to claim that Giovanni Trapattoni's squad was on par with anything Jack Charlton had managed.
Having a posh accent and a father as editor seems to matter more than having decent opinions. That said, I do enjoy the podcast in general - it’s refreshing to have a daily Irish sports podcast that doesn’t spend half its time playing self-indulgent jingles.
Can someone please link that video they referred to at 13:17 about the FAI managerial interviews back in 1996?
Big improvement with the new look set Joe
This is possibly our Bertie Vogts manages Scotland moment.
Why do people watch this when the audio is fine. Listening to some lad moan about the set. Watching a pod, it's like that feeling you get when you see someone out and about taking photos with a iPad.
Have all the people in view for most of video. Not just focusing only on speaker
You love to see it! Joe, you’ve saved Irish sports journalism
.. How on earth has he done that???
There's too many schools throughout Ireland that don't participate any any FAI school competitions. How can we expect to be competitive with other European countries with that kind of nonsense.
Stephen Kenny imo did huge damage to Ireland team was awful appointment ..when he took over from Mick McCarthy, Mick still had them competitive and whilst not qualifying for tournament, Mick was close...Kenny got paid over 500k a year for what....new coach not the right man either.2 defeats our of 2 and will be soon 3 defeats and 1 draw...dire
Bertie bowl has taken away the intimacy of the old landsdown rd
Love Dion!
.. Why.. I think he talked garbage
Timestamps
no debate,public money funneled in to prop up this team the are average at best.
Dion fanning and Kenny fanboy Dan ? 😂 Not a chance I'm listening to that 😂😂😂😂😂
.. I switched off when that idiot said, he's still a Stephen kenny fan
@@1choccoman.. So come on, why are you such a fan of them???
What's with the lack of edits on the preamble? Such a rip off of The Overlap. It's not cool
Some of us disagree, nice to see the humans behind the podcast
@@JamieHoban2001100%........& the overlap don’t have any patent on podcasts, tbh they’re all terrible not matter the format🙈🤣
Good man Jamie !
Fully agree. Adds a bit of charm!@@JamieHoban2001
The overlap didn’t invent that ffs 😂😂😂
