What a podcast. From Gingers (African sunset) to going on the session before the 2008 All-Ireland final- and lying to Mickey Harte. Owen Mulligan is brutually honest but after coaching Tyrone to the All-Ireland U20 title- there's a bit more to 'Mugsy' than many perhaps know. A facinating insight into on of sports greatest rivalries & what he really thought of Oisin McConville. The story of how his Tyrone days came to an end is incredible and how his stubborness prevented a return to red and white. With laughter throughout- this podcast is a colourful hilarious journey into the life of Mugsy and more importantly a new direction on the sidelines- and one he's pretty good at. Oisin believes he won the good looking competition.

Folge vom 17.05.2022Ladies football, where we've come and where we need to go. Armagh leading the way & Derry to lose mens finalArmagh captain Kelly Mallon has spent 14 years playing for Armagh. The greatest moment for her, is having a pitch to train on. Would a male senior Armagh player say that? It's a little uncomfortable but this podcast with Thomas & Oisin shines a light on the journey travelled within the sport- still not officially recognised- and most importantly what needs to happen next. Armagh Chairperson Sinead Reel is also on the podcast and explains how Armagh became the first and only inter-county ladies team to have their own bespoke facilities. No travel expenses- the boys get their food for the week- the girls don't. It's one of a number of points to come up in a brilliant podcast listen. Oisin McConville picks who will win the Ulster mens final and picks the bones of famous Derry win over Monaghan. Tailteann Cup draw also features- will it work out?

Folge vom 10.05.2022Making it. What it takes, MacRory winning manager Kevin Brady talks coaching youth & 16-year-old Derry player Ruairi ForbesThis one is different. Ruairi Forbes is an inter-county minor player, from the Ballinderry club and has won a MacRory. He's still in School at St Mary's Magherafelt and will still be there next year. He explains what it takes for a youngster to make it in Gaelic games. His journey continues to evolve, but he talks social media controls, quitting rugby, dedication, snowflake generation and why sport is so important. It's a rare, frank and honest insight into a 16-year-old aiming to play at the very top. Kevin Brady played for Antrim for 15 years and manages St Mary's MacRory cup winning team. He explains how to get the best out of young people- why they're different and lessons to be learned. Kevin also explains the Tailteann Cup from the eyes of a former captain who won the Tommy Murphy cup - he still has the framed photo! Oisin manages the Armagh U20's in an episode of the GAA Social that devotes the entire pod to coaching young people. It's a remarkable listen.PS- there's more. Womens knickers, San Francisco, formals, abuse, Donegal needing to change and Adrian McGuckin. Oh yes, Oisin wants the provincial championships scrapped. Another week of the GAA Social
