Episode 321: S10E32 First Names, Title Reigns, Wager Gains and Dawson's Game (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It's the last pod before the end of the world, sorry the international break, and we’ve been relegated to a watercooler conversation in the kitchen of Oliver Marketing. After a week where the top three won the big games against the lesser names, Johnny reveals the angst ridden nickname he shares with a Bohemians talisman who only needs a one word introduction. Meanwhile, Dan prepares to head off into the Matrix where AI have conspired to turn us all into batteries to fuel the machines to power a
Episode 320: S10E31 Three Way Title Race, Johnny Mc’s Vision, Shels Hell & Purse on Purse (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The lads are back in Oliver for a hectic show that might just be as breathless as the remainder of the League of Ireland season. Aside from fiscal and physical fears, Johnny is on board with the apparent Pat’s rebirth and Bohs momentum while Rovers questions persist. Johnny McDonnell dials in to discuss a Saints prediction turned premonition while we also hear from Stephen Kenny and Darren Purse who were in contrasting form when speaking to Dan.

Episode 318: S10E29 Will Clarke Chat, Waterford Wonders & The Week That Was (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Where there's a Will, there's a way. Dan and Johnny relocate to a stadium in Dublin 4 this week to catch up with the League of Ireland Academy Director to chat about the state of play post government investment and what needs to happen next to make encouraging investment sustainable. Before that, the lads pick over the week that was, with Dan wowed by Waterford before making a first pilgrimage to Mayo while Johnny speaks wistfully about Warsaw in a wider discussion that precedes a mailbag with a
Episode 317: S10E28 Return to Oliver, National League Launch & Galway in Europe? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We are back in the familiar setting of Oliver Marketing to pick over the week that was without needing a wifi connection. The lads discuss the low key vibe around a huge Shamrock Rovers game, the implications for the idea of a title race and the questions spinning out of it as pre-LOI Central hire Stephen Bradley heads into his second decade in charge. We also hear from Garret Higgins on the new National League and debate it's relevance to the LOI while we also hear a snippet of irate Mark Conno
