A secret Greek ticket tout, £300,000 goes missing, and a 'Night of the Long Knives.' No this isn't Conor's Game of Thrones fan fiction, but the Merriongate scandal which rocked the FAI in 1996. This was the beginning of the Mick McCarthy era of Irish football and a sign of things to come in later FAI corruption charges. Join Conor and Johnny this week as they discuss FAI treasurer Joe Delaney's confusing ticket-selling shenanigans during the 1990 and 1994 World Cup which resulted in the FAI losing £300,000. What makes it even worse is that no one knows where the money went!

531 appearances for Leeds United, 52 Ireland Caps, 1994 Premier League team of the season and uncle to one Ian Harte. This week the Boys discuss Leeds United legend Gary Kelly! Debuting under Howard Wilkinson, Kelly became a mainstay in both the Leeds and Ireland teams of the mid to late 1990s. The Boys run through the peak of Kelly's career, his competition for an Ireland and a Leeds shirt and the time Leeds chairman allegedly tried to hire hit men to injury him - all in a days work for a proper Prem legend!

In 1995 Tony Sheridan signed with Shelbourne and, to the delight of Shels fans, quickly set about establishing his legend. 2 FAI Cups, 1 LOI Cup and 1 Player of the Season Award built his reputation as did a certain wonder goal against Sligo. Before this time, however, Sheridan played for Coventry City in the early years of the Premier League. In the interview, the Boys and Tony talk about his time in England, the vagaries of the English academy system and his time in the League of Ireland.

Keano, Keano, Keano!

Join us this week as Conor and Johnny discuss one of the greatest (and most controversial) Irish footballers of all time, Roy Keane. As Ireland's most decorated ever player, Keane was known for his aggression and ambition. Today our boys discuss the early stages of Keane's career from his move to Nottingham Forest in 1990 to his first big injury in 1997.  Here we track the origins of Keane's controversial status in Irish football as well as the nurturing influences on his career.
