Banty asking Gilroy, did you pull OāGara/Philly etc straight out of prison back around 2009 was a great story.

His being back is the only reason cluxton, mannion and mccaffrey are back. Pat is a god really.
Itāll literally wreck Joeās head if he can get into the Whitehouse but not the derry dressing room
Who would he have to ride to do that?
Thought the podcast was quite underwhelming. Joe seemed to want to just promote the stories that he was linked to - trinity , Michael Darragh Macauley . I would have liked to hear more about Gilroys influences eg Heffo and Vincents. Also on managing Connolly . It all seemed a bit scattered
Lot of mutual back slapping in fairness. I hate it when lads go on about the sporting achievements of their youth

Ah thatās class.
Sounds like MDM is doing fantastic work with all the alcoholics and drug addicts in Dublin .
He has a big job on his hands.
Is that one of JPās jockeys?

Gilroy sounds like heās absolutely stinkers rich. Is that the case? Knew he had Dalkia (not sure what they were, facility mgt?) But wasnāt aware of much a bidness man he was.
Serious big hitter
Do you mean Veloia? He is CEO of a massive construction company now
Are you suggesting Dalkia is a front for something else?
Maybe thatās what was in my head.
Fair play to him. Sounds like a good man. Decent wife behind him which is never a bad thing too by the sounds of things.

I think at one stage he had 4 kids under the age of 6, was running a ā¬150m revenue company and guiding Dublin to their first AI win in 16 odd years.

I thought he managed St. Vincentās senior team before the Dublin job, no?
No - he was still playing on them. An awkward but effective target man.
