Alan Cawley is once more in the presenter's chair to review the first week of the season. He is joined in studio by Barry Murphy and Richie Towell.

Alan had some interesting interactions with Bohemians fans at Aviva Stadium on Sunday and asks Richie to perhaps elaborate on his comments regarding Dalymount Park on last week's pod (1:30).

To matters on the pitch and the lads agree it was a poor spectacle on Lansdowne Road (3:00), with Pat's in particular needing to generate more attacking threat. Richie likes the look of Dawson Devoy in deep position for Bohs.

There is some sympathy for slow starts after a long off-season.

Friday was a huge win for Derry (16:30) against an impressive Sligo but Barry has fears for the Candystripes' defence.

Could John Russell get fed up of the Sligo talent drain and look to progress his club at a bigger club who can retain their best talent?

Waterford impressive in 1-1 draw at home to Shels (27:35) as Joey O'Brien's team once again fail to put the game to bed due to lack of a top-notch striker.

Finally, Galway United will be devastated to suffer last gasp defeat to Drogheda (38:00).
