Just in case anyone didn't notice you can now watch part of the show you want online by picking whatever from the column on the left.

I had problems with RealPlayer way back in the days of Windows 98, and have never installed it since.

So, does RTE replay it anytime this week?

How do you watch it online?

**JC_GUFC** · 24/03/2008, 10:32 PM

His comments on both sets of fans liking him (or something like that) just shows how deluded he is.

He obviously didnt hear both sets of fans calling him a w-anker on at least 7 or 8 occasions

Only last weeks stuff is there at the moment apart from post match interviews.

The whole Connor going back to Sligo thing made me cringe. It was sort of like that episode of the Office when David Brent goes back with the dog after getting the boot. The current manager barely said hello to him on the way in as he was standing waiting for people to go in, the scene with Connor at the grave of Yeats just befuddled me, then the backslapping by Connor to Pat Fenlon & some of the players just made me go tsk tsk.
"14 or 15 players that I signed" also has its own joke but ill leave that for another day.......

Agreed, was very annoying. They tried too hard for that bit and didn't pull it off, no need for it.

Was that Cook

I saw somone brush past giving an awkward handshake where he seemed to jerk it away from Connor a little too eagerly. Then they show Connor looking a little lost, not sure what to do next

Great bit of TV from the LOI's answer to David Brent. He really didn't want Bohs to win though, did he? Only thing missing was a few reaction shots to show him cursing out the ref. Love these pieces and I love that they're not shying away from things like the Stephen Rice comments or ignoring that Connor, Roddy and Rico all left their last jobs in "interesting" circumstances.

I thought it was pretty good - I'm not sure if you sign a player twice it counts as 2 players!

I wasn't sure about the first show but I think it's really good now. Even that Sixty thing isn't too bad - it's a bit of a laugh and shouldn't be taken as seriously as some people on here seem to think.

Was looking at the website last night too and it's v good.

It's something a bit different and surprisingly informative. Tadhg Purcell loves the GAA - no wonder he's intimidated by his own fans

It'd be better if they left out the more obviously pointless questions - Batman or Superman? Who'd you like to kiss most on the team? Am I smart for coming up with these questions or do I sound like a muppet?

I actually found myself grinning at Purcell's reaction to the final two questions. Like I said after last weeks, it's the part that my girlfriend invariably looks up from her magazine at; if it means that the player she or anyone else watching sees on TV next time there's a match on is made more interesting or human for them, it's worth it.

**pineapple stu** · 25/03/2008, 6:58 PM

"Who on the team would you most like to kiss?"

"No-one. Emmm? No, no-one"

Good alright. We just need more closet gays to answer the questions and we're flying. Next up - George O'Callaghan.

**Rovers1** · 25/03/2008, 7:42 PM

lads can any of you tell me the jist of what Sean Connor said? i was watching it in a pub and there was no sound (probably better off with no sound though :P)

He said something like "Cast a cold eye on life, on death, I signed all these players, I'm great, Cretaro pass the ball "
