    The Absolute Game 7 p.m. Monday night

    The Weekend's games will be reviewed the forthcoming weekend's previewed and there will be phonecalls and texts from listeners on 103.2 Dublin City Anna Livia FM.

    For people outside the Greater Dublin area, and indeed Ireland, the show is now streamed live on the internet at www.dublincityannaliviafm.com
    And it's a real hour about the EL not the miniscule time slot afforded by
    Newstalk 106 . Former Longford Town and Monaghan United manager and St Patrick's Athletic assistant manager Bill Bagster is one of the presenters.

    That is the perfect time to reveal to people what is actually going on. It is one of the best motivators when it comes to the FAI, bad press ...... but they still manage to mess it up at the best of times.
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    To be fair to them they don't pull back on any punches when it comes to the FAI.

    Hmm, a real hour ? Still find plenty of time to talk about the English league though, and make snide remarks when people ask to stick to the EL. I'm not really having too much of a go though, it is a good show, and as you rightly say, better than Newstalks 15 minute effort (last time I listened). Oh, and maybe you could get Billy to ease up on the silly accents ? it's not as funny as he thinks it is.
    Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.

    No I am given to understand radio studios are also covered by the smoking ban!

    How about a podcast so that people aren't locked into one time slot?

    Yes, I thought it was a wasted opportunity. If Ollie hadn't phoned up it would have been a complete waste of time. Bagsters constant irrelevant waffle about cricket, the English Premiership and all manner of other off topic things is really pointless.

    They decided not to talk about the weekend Premier Division games because they weren't important enough, yet we got a critique of Gerard Houllier's time at Liverpool.

    The concept of having a show is of course welcome, but they can do much better than this.

    That's a good idea and one that the station should look into for this and some of their other shows.

    Fair comment, the show normally runs every week but won't be on next Monday, back on November 6th.

    Sorry, CTID, I used to be a regular listener but got too exasperated listening to the one who isn't Billy and isn't you-know-who. Kind of defeats the purpose of an informative radio show if the first one presenter hears of the news he's supposed to be imparting is on the show itself. That and the endless, drawling stream of Decos and Antos ringing to decry the latest "dizgraze" visited upon Shamrock. Change in format would do no harm.

    Bill's cricket chat is fine though, best part of the show.
    A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.
