Newstalk Sports Saturday Discussion Panel with Ger Gilroy
Found these podcasts recently and have been listening back to them going back to at least April or May. A fucking great show that came to prominence in sporting circles for Wooleys labelling of Micko as a bluffer. But its a great listen, Gilroy is a very easy host for the most part, and gets some great guests. Had one of the founders of ESPN in one weekend and his take on Irish sports and broadcasting was great to listen to.
Not a jibe at it, but so far the LOI contributers have been the weakest imo, but maybe thats my own orientation coming into play and perhaps they will improve as I move through more of them. Another standout was Enda McNulty who is a great listen and someone who I would always have time for.
I’d recommend anyone to download them, they’re available on Newstalk iTunes.
Starts off as a tame enough interview but it ends up with a blazing row about why Enda Kenny won’t go on Vincent Browne’s tv show. Interview starts about 2/3rds of the way through (@ 20:50) that audio clip with the heated stuff near the end (31:00 mins or so).
FFS- Ger gilroy is a mong who doesnt have a clue about sports- newstalk sport is very poor & the station as whole is on the way out- what sickens me about the station is that denis the crook o brien owns it- furthermore he is bessiers with vincent browne & browne uses the below average presenters on his show
It went downhill for me when he started reading out every text that went into the show and when he started preaching on air. He’s turned into a right opinionated cunt.
