  • BORST pod cast

    I am a Dublin based fan .

    In normal times I attend some away games and travel to Showgrounds for others returning to Dublin immediately after the game.

    The podcast fills that gap that is part of the enjoyment of following your team ie the chat, the analysis, the rumours.

    That’s not something that an away fan can easily find and so the podcast does that very well.

    Well done lads

    Really enjoyed the stories from the Dannies and the gaffer interview.

    Keep them coming.
