Episode 1421: FAI Issues Remain But John Delaney Will Answer All Your Questions (In April), Rory The Golfer And Rory The Man
John Delaney’s €100,000 bridging loan to the FAI in 2017 has rather over-shadowed Mick McCarthy’s first week of training ground work (00.20 secs) with the new Irish team.

The Irish Times’ Emmet Malone joins us (9.30 mins) from Abbotstown to give us the latest on the Delaney story, as it appears the FAI CEO will hold a press conference next month which promises rather more answers than it will probably deliver.
Really frank, interesting assessment of the reasons he has failed to make more of an impact for Ireland over the last four years from David McGoldrick yesterday. Mick Mccarthy gives every impression of seeing him as someone who can play a much bigger part now… https://t.co/em4bZ5vAP7

Malachy Clerkin and Lawrence Donegan, creator of McKellar golf magazine, join us (26.30 mins) to talk about a more even-keel Rory, why it’s still all about his putting, and the build-up to Augusta.
Plus there’s Ken’s tactics board, the young tyro that will fire the goals Ireland needs against Gibraltar, and Murph pores over some extremely complicated graphs.
don’t watch the Corofin players’ movement, watch the three Crokes defenders – like me trying to chase my dog around the garden. hardly to blame obviously, that’s football from another planet https://t.co/54V3sZ9ip9

Why do they look so nervous? Whats happened their handling? Why are they so poor at comebacks? Is it time for a complete overhaul of the game-plan?@MattRCNM and Gerry Thornley come up with a diagnosis, and have a stab at a solution…https://t.co/7kXLDJmP1k pic.twitter.com/pZY8wFE4Ta

Liverpool proved far too good for Bayern with giant English oak Jordan Henderson having a huge impact while off the field of play, Van Dijk putting out a vibe and Sadio Mane contorting to conquer
