    What do the rest of you on RTE on a Friday night make of it when Con Murphy has one of his trademark giggling fits?

    How do you resist the temptation to join in?

    With all the financial turmoil going on in the league at present do you think that there will be a drop in playing standards? If so, will this effect our performances in Europe?



    Does Eoin believe that a LOI team will ever make the group stages of the champions league?

    Apart from yourself, which panelist on MNS do you think is most knowledgeable on the league of Ireland?

    Do you get tired of Roddys ramblings?

    What team do you like to watch most and why?

    Which current player and current manager are your favourite?

    The whole football structure in this country seems to be very hap-hazard when compared with other countries with some tiers that seem to work independently of the rest of the organisation. How can the divide between Junior Football and League of Ireland Football be resolved.

    Do you think we would see regularly good viewer ratings of LOI matches if they aired one match live every week ?

    do you think the fai has had a positive or negative effect on the league in light of the financial turmoil the clubs find themselves in?
    do you think that a ten team league is a good idea?

    can you think of any good ideas about how this league can be improved?

    Do you think that the underage structure in Ireland is up to standard?

    do you think regional academies should be set up correctly to produce better quality players?

    What do you think needs to be done in order to make this league the priority compared to England/Scotland for the media and also football fans in this country ?

    The League of Ireland has eventually made a concerted effort to contribute to the community via the Club Promotion Officers scheme which is a vital means of changing attitude, opinion and perception of our league and where clubs are positioned within the local community. What else do you think clubs need to do as regards this issue?

    As a former LOI Ireland player with Drumcondra and Limerick. What are your outstanding memories of playing LOI and who was the best player you played against in the LOI?

    Having seen all sides, from the lads who went to England at 15 and played for the national team to those who came home labelled failures and sometimes lost to the game, what advice would you give to a teenager hoping to make a career in the game?
    What age do you think is best to go over to England/Scotland? Can Ireland support a professional league, in your opinion, and offer a realistic alternative to players heading over to England?
    Would you prefer see our best young players play with LoI schoolboy teams or in the 'nursery clubs' (St Kevins etc)?
    Should LoI teams work harder to develop their own talent or should they leave it to the schoolboy teams who have been doing it for years?
