It’s our real shot at glory. Will Shamrock Rovers pull a rabbit from the hat Or will Derry City’s odyssey finally lead somewhere […]
Right, Let’s Talk German Football
Right then. The usual Premier League brouhaha is kicking off, but the real thinking man’s punt is over in Germany. The new Bundesliga season. Forget what you know. The big story is always Bayern Munich. They’re a machine. But a machine that broke down last year. Leverkusen, the team that never wins anything, just went […]
A Proper Italian Hooley for 2025-26
Forget the sideways rain that batters your window in Donegal. The real tempest, the proper ballyrag for the 2025-2026 season, is afoot in Italy.

The Big Pot of Europe: A 2025 Glimpse
The quiet of summer is grand for a while, but then you get an itch. You know yourself. It’s an itch for floodlights and a bit of proper pandemonium. The lads at UEFA always know how to scratch it. Their big one-off match, the Super Cup, is on the horizon for 2025 and it feels […]
The NBA’s 2025-2026 Ballyhoo: A Gander From Galway
Alright lads. Time to ponder the next great American kerfuffle, the 2025-2026 NBA season. The League Pass will probably cost a phantasmagorical sum, maybe €150. But we’ll pay. We always do, for those bleary-eyed 3 a.m. games in Dublin. The Denver Nuggets will still be a puzzle. Their gargantuan Serb, Nikola Jokić, likely cares more […]
A Grand Old Stretch in the Evenings
Right. Here we go again. The long march towards the 2026 World Cup starts for real in 2025. It’s a proper cod of a journey, that one. You’ll shell out fifty quid for a seat at the Aviva, just to watch us hoof it about in the drizzle. We all remember Egan’s thumping header against […]

Portugal’s Proper Football Ruckus
The rain in Dublin has a way of seeping in, doesn’t it. Right into the bones. Makes you dream of sun. Well, here’s a thought—the 2025-26 Taça de Portugal. It’s not football like we know it. Its a national brawl, a beautiful, sprawling mess from top to bottom. This is where some lads from a […]
