Thanks very much. It will only take as long a quick kick out to do.

You are going to love this, I promise you, it goes deep, it goes off tangents but it thats what happens when you earwig on inner workings of the louth GAA pressbox.

I’ll set the scene for you, I’m joined by John Savage from the Drogheda Independent/Argus and Caoimhin Reilly from the Democrat and except, instead of huddling for shelter in Darver or looking through the perplex of Haggardstown we’re virtually having a chat, discussion and debate which does get heated at times.

We go into the Future of local newspapers and state of the media landscape as a whole and towards the end, we talk the possible teams that will be winners and losers of COVID19.

Hopefully you get an Indication of how hard they work during these weird times, coming up with ideas, missing the actual massive chunk of their jobs,going to watches around the county because after all they/we are Fans with typewriters.

Thanks to the lads for their time.

I caught up with Louth Hurling and football managers Wayne Kierans and Paul McCormack on Wednesday night for the Louth GAA coaching and games webinar.

Really enjoyable chat with the lads ranging from the impact of Covid19 initially to how they became managers, reflecting on the 2020 season, nostalgia and playing GAA behind closed doors. It’s all there.

Enjoy and hopefully you learnt something and find out exactly what Louth managers do all day.

Louth and Proud has gone full quarantine with a nostalgia packed podcast on Zoom no less! I called up the Butterly’s Nicholas and Padraig along with my brother Podge in Australia to talk about one of the greatest Louth performances from recent memory.

The Louth Kildare 2010 game in Navan.

We had plenty of fun revisiting the game, lost bets, dirty diesel, hair raising tales from right inside Fitzers dressing room at half time on the day and we picked which John Doyle was the better footballer.

So Stop baking and shaving your head, pause Tiger King and we’ll begin….

This is the story behind the 2019 Louth and Leinster intermediate champions, Mattock Rangers.

The team, who finally got over the Louth hurdle and then when they did, went on to conquer the province.

You will hear about the dark moments, the crushing years of heartbreaks, the adoption of Stabannon, the enthusiasm of youth, the help from key members of the five a row all-ireland champions Dublin, a captain that matched his father and a remarkable Leinster tradition.

My team,

The team, who united the village of collon once again

Glory Days indeed…

Thanks again to the lads and kind sponsors Watters Estate Agents and Travel Young Coach and Mini Bus hire for making the Mattock Rangers LouthandProud Glory Days podcast a reality.

I go back in time, to give you a sense of what it was like 14 years ago on the terraces of Pairc Tailteann with a present tense Louth Tyrone 2006 Talking Points podcast.

Louth took on 2005 All-Ireland Champions Tyrone on Saturday to remember for Louth fans. Hear from Louth manager Eamonn McEneaney and Tyrone's Mickey Harte before my 23 talking points from that famous game. Enjoy. Stay safe.

Watch the game back here:
