Jimmy Dunne told us back in the summer that he believed Ireland would make it to the World Cup. Today we catch up with the QPR captain to reflect on his experiences with the squad over the qualifying campaign.

We talk about the midweek Premier League games including Thomas Frank’s efforts to walk the tightrope between annoying the Spurs fans and annoying the Spurs players, Chelsea’s failure to live up to Ken’s Monday hype job at Elland Road, and tomorrow’s World Cup draw.
