LOI Podcast Discussion Thread

[De Town]

Have to say I enjoy the McDonnell/Ward combo myself. They're mates for years so have that natural relationship built over time. I thought McDonnell's tongue was firmly in his cheek this week with all the Duff craic - he's clearly taken some heat online for the amount of Duff content he's written and was really just leaning into that this week - almost taking the **** out of the comments by jokingly apologising for any Duff mention.

Ward is just a great lad, bit eccentric but knows his stuff and liable to come out with anything. He's also brilliant on Racing TV - gets brilliant interviews from people at small tracks around the country in particular.

He failed in his main role as a journalist on the Dundalk messing, his mates getting a free pass when others were firmly in the corsshairs. He is better than that croyism or getting involved with comments on social media, little bit touchy about criticism.

I think Dan is probably as good of a full LOI journalist we are ever going to get (even if he has totally abandoned his Louth roots).

Him and Johnny make a good combo on the podcast.

Overall, "new media" has been great for LOI. The Vlogs bring in a new demographic too.

The biggest game changer for me as an LOI fan is getting goals and highlights on Twitter (its only use nowadays) straight away. Makes going to games far more enjoyable when you can watch replays and other events in the moment.

McDonnell would definitely have benefited from putting the phone down lately, and losing arguments online before trying to have a passive agressive pop on the show when no one can show him up was very, very childish

Yeah and the Duff thing isn't isolated. He's been rattled by Sligo Rovers fans asking him to refer to them by their full name.

Sligo's match poster for their game against Rovers is just childish pettiness

Bohs fans kicked up a big song and dance for of of the cup finals when the marketing by the FAI had them down as 'Bohemians' rather than 'Bohemian'. Despite the fact everyone says it with an s and that includes their own social media. Mountain out a molehill stuff, but it's not exclusive to the 2 Rovers clubs

Nah it makes me smile tbh.
