LOI Central

Decisions, decisions, decisions! Whether it be where to have a sneaky joint in Alkmaar or whether its a late penalty in Waterford, there's no better man than Johnny Ward to seek advice from. This week we have another welcome co-hosting nixer for Paul O'Hehir as Dan slips off on holidays, but still manages to keep the quiz business in order after talking to both Daryl Horgan and Ciaran Kilduff. The mailbag is chock a block with talks of the same penalty as well as a left field take on New Zealand's chances in the World Cup. It's episode 15 and there's way too many topics to mention here and it's all done in tandem with Rascals Brewery, Collar & Cuff, Planify.ie and Future Ticketing. Oh and the big lad from Alkmaar they couldn't remember? That was Wout Wegorst.

Johnny is away in sunnier climes this week so Dan skips out to the southside of Dublin to catch up with friend of the show Eoin Doyle to get his impressions of the season so far. They talk best signings of the season and the best finishers in the league before unpicking the problems with Shelbourne and Derry City and delving into a mailbag that veers from student dilemmas to Graham Coughlan's impressive communication. All of this and more in association with our friends from Future Ticketing, Collar & Cuff, Planify and Rascals Brewing

Dan is reunited with Johnny this week for a remote rundown of the talking points raised by the Bank Holiday weekend. Have Bohs forgotten how to win? Does complacency explain the Shamrock Rovers crowds? What's happening with Cork City? What does Waterford's appointment of Graham Coughlan say about the road ahead? Our mailbag included a fair few Kian Leavy related observations and Johnny spoke with St Pat's playmaker Chris Forrester about the rough treatment handed out to his team-mate and his own personal quest for 100 club goals. It's a serious conversation that's more relevant than irreverent and it's brought to you by our friends at Collar & Cuff, Planify, Future Ticketing, O'Reilly Sports and Rascals Brewing.

We literally dial it in this week as Johnny combines Punchestown duty with LOI duty and Paul O’Hehir stands in for Dan whilst not getting his annual jolly to the KIldare racetrack. There’s reaction to Joey O’Brien’s reaction to Shelbourne’s capitulation at home to Drogheda, lots of Sligo Rovers debate and a bumper mailbag to boot where Bohs feature highly again with the long walk to the tunnel. So we’re still in the section of the season where Shamrock Rovers don’t fire on all cylinders, but Rascals Brewing, Planify, Collar & Cuff, O’reillys Sportswear and Future Ticketing are firing episode 12 straight into your headphones!

We swap one Dan for another this week as Daniel Lambert ankles it down to Oliver Towers on the back of his 40th birthday celebrations. After a derby defeat for Bohs we look at the weekend game in Tallaght, as well as back on a storied career for the Bohemians CCO, taking us from Dunsink in Finglas to Bohemians shirts at Coachella. You'd never have guessed, but we take a few sidetracks on the way through music festivals in Phibsboro, new versus old stadiums, Joey O'Brien's difficult second album, and sea swimming with ex players. If all that weren't enough we talk to Aidan Keena before we get to the Israeli elephant in the room. This 80-minute Dan & Johnny with a twist, is brought to you by Rascals without the lime, Future Ticketing, Collar & Cuff as well as O'Reilly's Sportswear and Planify.ie! It's episode 11 and it's available now!
