Folks,
98FM's weekly sports show "Now That's What I Call Sport" airs every Sunday morning from 9-10am.
Presented by myself Johnny Lyons, this week's show broadcast on Sunday April 27th features the following guests:
1. Frank Stapleton -
Ah Franky the darling of the Dalyer terraces !
Whenever this Republic of Ireland/Man Utd/Arsenal legend's name crops up, two mighty fine things happen to me.
Firstly, I start fantasising (in a very clean, clean way) about Frank and the days spent in the twilight of his career at the hallowed De Meer stadium with the god like Ajax Amsterdam.
And the nostalgia bug infects me, well, infectiously !
It's still one of the best ever goals I've had the privilege to witness from close hand.
Yes, yours truly was one of the few who was right behind the Lansdowne Road terrace the day Franky bulleted home a header for the Irish consolation in a 4-1 defeat by the great Denmark team of the mid eighties.
There's not a dry eye in the house!
Now,what will myself and Franky talk about?!
Mmmmmm let me see now, there's the Premier League title chase (for those of you not inhaling oxygen it's between Liverpool and Chelsea - who meet each other on Sunday - and Man City), there's the small matter of who'll be managing Man U following the dismissal of David Moyes and a couple of small time Champions League semi final returns.
That's enough to be going on with !
Oh and there's the very important matter of which way the weather blows - Franky says it's West to East and with it apparently pissin' rain in Dublin tomorrow I think I've won that one!
Meteorology buffs - I'm comin' atcha!
2. Barry Cahill -
No betther man than Barry to interview when the Dubs go a chasin medals !
The Boys in Blue meet Derry in the Allianz National League final on Sunday at Croker.
And former All Ireland winner Barry tells us why the trophy cabinet at Parnell Park will be filled with another piece of silverware on Sunday !
Also on the show will be relevant quotes from the Dubs' Jim Gavin, MDMA, Johnny Cooper, Eoghan O'Gara and Derry's Chrissy McKaigue.
3. Patrick Mullins -
Fronting our comprehensive coverage of next week's prestigious Irish National Hunt Racing Festival at Punchestown is Patrick, top jockey in his own right and son of the famous Willie Mullins.
Oh and I suppose we'll have to mention Munster against Toulon!
Right I'm off to scoff some Tunnocks and have some Hartrate moments in the shower with Head and Shoulders!
Competition :
A pair of National League final Dublin v Derry tix.
Thanks,
Johnny.
