Episode 2786: The Angechurian Candidates, Bulging Hatemail-bag, Amputee Football, Champions League Tuesday

Wed 8th Nov 2023
Eoin, Ken, Murph, Neil Hoey

Arteta got the VAR ball rolling last weekend after Arsenal’s loss to Newcastle, Ken gave his views on Monday’s show, then Ange walked the high line against Chelsea, paid the price, but also defended refs/sneered Arteta after the game. And so on Tuesday we invited Damien Delaney on for his take on everything that was said and done. As a result, today we have a bulging hatemail-bag to get through.

 

Neil Hoey is a member of the Irish amputee football team, and he’s in Champions League action with Bohemians this weekend. He talks to us about dealing with the loss of his leg at 11 years old, the support of his parents, the importance of finding a new tribe in football, and watching an amputee footballer winning the Puskas Award.

Plus there’s Newcastle’s failings in Europe, TNT’s gold bars, Murph’s mistakes and a listener questions Ken’s use of twitter/X to take the pulse of football fans.
