Ciaran Whelan in studio | Summers in Dublin, channelling Hill 16, the stark reality of missing out on Sam Maguire
Dublin football legend Ciaran Whelan joins Joe in studio to chat about his memorable life and times. A self-acknowledged 'Dublin Inbetweener' who missed out on All-Ireland glory during his time in blue, he relives the emotions of watching his former teammates end a 16-year wait for Sam Maguire, the indelible marks of near misses which predated 2011, and some of the iconic games he partook in during the vibrant nineties & noughties. Ciaran also talks about how football has evolved during his time in punditry, the critiques which have followed, and his recent ascent to the rank of Sunday Game 'senior analyst'.
