Ken, Eoin and Murph are joined by Dion Fanning to look back on the FAI’s appearance in front of the Oireachtas Committee, the second vote on playing Israel and the forgotten goalies.

As the only home game in this window, tonight will be the only chance fans get to make their voices heard. What shape that protest will take, we’ll find out later. But before then, Ken had a back-and-forth with Heimir about his feelings on the unfairness (or otherwise) of the media’s coverage of the Israel saga.

Plus there’s Ralf in Dublin, rapid Austria and magic Moylan.
