Ex-barstooler, now the second best League of Ireland historian. In need of a Finn Harps duvet. Wrote a book once. @TallaghtTime @EastStandPod @Peile50YearsAgo.

It's been a while but I've updated the ol' blog on my book collection. Here's all the new and old LOI related books that I've bought the last few years, all categorised with my complete Irish football library at the bottom. 'Hey, do you have....?' - 'Yes'

Updated list of men who’ve played for a League of Ireland club and who’ve gone to the World Cup. 34 players, 14 nations, 14 current LOI clubs (and 7 ex-LOI).

@p02462599 @LeagueofIreland Not true...he missed a guilt edge chance at a crucial stage of each of the first two games 😄

Headline probably needs to be rewritten for an Irish readership.

Rovers come from behind to win at Dalymount Park for the first time since 2005

@ConMurphySport @netflix It's like a strategy now isn't it. "Leaving Netflix" on this date. It worked for me for Fargo though

Is this the first time a LOI First Division player has ever been called up by Ireland?

@SprtBookReviews Is it impressive or sad that I listened to the whole thing on Spotify in one and a half work days 😆

Would have been quicker if people didn't keep interrupting me. Rude.

Very enjoyable read/listen Paul. Nothing dishonourable about 1994 Barbados own goal man btw. A hero!

@noriordan Joe Waters and Steve Heighway are cousins of theirs

@seandeloughry @seidodge @YeSecondPost Imagine writing a club history book now & you counted the 1960s LSC in players' totals because it was a big deal then with huge crowds, but not the LSC since Covid that we see now. It's still the same competition, being treated differently. Whereas a friendly is always a friendly

[Karl Reilly @HistoryLOI]

@YeSecondPost @seidodge Just heard that Ben Mahon himself considers Monday his debut and not the LSC. We're through the looking glass here people.

30 years ago today, Man City were relegated from the Premier League in dramatic fashion.

After hearing in the crowd that a draw with Liverpool will keep them up, City decide to waste time, but they actually needed a win!

Sensational scenes at Maine Road.
