  • Disrespect for the FAI Cup??!!

    Put me right here. This is an RTE podcast right? How can an RTE pundit point the finger at a). either Bohs or Waterford b). The legitimate sponsors of non-top flight football or c).

    Such disrespect towards other clubs, so unnecessary and so low, absolutely ashamed of hearing so-called Irish football fans/pundits whatever, talk about other... more
