Across The Line March 8th by Tipp FM Radio

Thursday's Tipp Today heard from Tipp Gardai about damage that was caused to a council owned house in Clonmel this week.

The house had been the subject of refurbishment works and was due to be given to a traveler family shortly – however, the damage has left the property uninhabitable.

Tipperary Rural Travelers Project has labeled the attack as a “hate crime” - and their spokesperson Margaret Casey joined Fran on Friday:

A public meeting was held in Thurles to discuss the proposed movement of the Post Office from Liberty Square to the town's shopping centre on the outskirts.

Tipp FM's Ben Sweeney was there and joined Fran in studio:

Thurles animation service Ntoonz launched their new ten-part series of short sketches called Bootleg Jesus which follows the adopted son of God.

Tipperary County Council helped fund the project and have subsequently drawn criticism as some view the sketches and blasphemous.

Ntoonz temporarily pulled the project but returned to YouTube with part two on Monday night – and Kenneth Noble spoke to Fran on Tuesday.

In this week’s Extra Time Junior Football Podcast our presenter Jamie O’Flaherty is joined in studio by some legends of the junior football game. Former Clonmel Town FAI Junior Cup winning manager Martin Quinlivan, along with the Clonmel Town goalkeeper from that famed team of 1994 Stephen O’Neill, are joined by Carrick United’s Liam Wells who guided Carrick United to their FAI Junior Cup triumph in 2008 and one of the heroes from that Carrick side Keith Walsh. We look back at and chat about those two memorable victories.
