And now for something completely different... Why did Bobby Charlton, George Best, Geoff Hurst, Gordan Banks and a host of other British footballing legends play in the League of Ireland during the 1970s and 1980s? Were they big money signings or money well spent? Join Conor and Johnny this week as they take a break from regular proceedings to discuss a strange trend in Irish football wherein big name signings were made for Irish league clubs, played for two games, and then returned home significantly richer. Were they worth it? You decide!
