There’s a few equine analogies this week as Johnny checks in en route to England to talk about the only race that really matters in his mind – the title race. We discuss the exploits of the Drog whisperer Kevin Doherty, working his magic to consistently shock the blue bloods, before paying tribute to the weekend’s mane man Colm Whelan before galloping through a crowded mailbag that includes athletics and attendance trivia and questions around why Shamrock Rovers turned bodies away when there was room at the inn. After all this Collar and Cuff, Rascals Brewing, Sport Cosanta and Future Ticketing sponsored fun, we take a virtual trip south to check in on Kerry FC’s Conor McCarthy, the novice looking to develop into a thoroughbred manager. Have we flogged this horse enough? Let’s just hope it’s dead and not diving.
