Colm Boohig, Enda Coll, Keith Treacy & Matthew Brennan tuck into the Breakfast Buffet, starting with the big question: fry-up or croissant and coffee – and what footballers really ate as nutrition culture changed through the years.

From there it’s a proper grab-bag: Ireland jerseys and the ones fans love most, why modern kits look better without sponsors, and the start of “darts season” – including Luke Littler, dominance, underdogs and why we love to see the big dog toppled.

Plus: favourite sporting sounds, songs that define montage moments, public-transport pet hates, crisp flavours, and a plug for the Bank of Ireland Rugby Road Show in Belfast (with a new guest: Richie Murphy).

The latest seismic Manchester City update is finally here – an independent commission has found City guilty of serious breaches of Premier League financial rules across nine seasons, with major findings around sham contracts, misstated accounts and a failure to cooperate.

Colm Boohig, Keith Treacy Enda Coll & Matthew Brennan dig into what the verdict actually says, what sanctions could (and should) follow, and why “a fine” just doesn’t cut it. They debate everything from points deductions and expulsion, to who’s most aggrieved, what it means for players and former stars, and how football even begins to quantify the damage.

Colm Boohig, Enda Coll, Matthew Brennan and Will O’Callaghan are in studio to discuss the ongoing issues of the weekend between Ireland and Israel. Updates include more opinions, different views and the question is raised that was the weekend a slight over reaction.

FAI president Paul Cooke faces the media after Ireland’s Nations League game with Israel — and Off The Ball Breakfast plays his full, combative exchange in full.

Cooke insists the decision to fulfil the fixture was “football democracy”, hits out at the coverage around the camp, and is repeatedly pressed on sanctions, player consultation and what would’ve happened if the squad had voted not to play.

Matthew Brennan and Dara Smith-Naughton dig into the messy fallout: the Gavin Bazunu situation, the divisiveness of a player vote, the lack of clear FAI leadership, and how much damage this week may have done to the team’s bond with the public.

Two people who witnessed a chaotic, unprecedented weekend for Irish football join Colm Boohig & Enda Coll; OTB's Ben Symes and John Fallon of the Irish Examiner, speaking from Hungary after Ireland’s Nations League match against Israel.

They react to FAI president Paul Cook’s combative post-match comments, the reported player vote on whether to fulfil the fixture, and the sense of a split camp — with eight players believed to have voted against playing.

The lads also describe the eerie atmosphere inside the near-empty stadium, the pre-match protests, and disturbing reports of racist chanting.

Plus: what happens next with Gavin Bazunu, and what to expect in Dublin on Thursday.
