Between the Stripes LOI podcast BetweenTheStripes.net

We're pulling out the big guns this week as decorated former players and current LOI pundits, Gareth McGlynn and Alan Cawley join us to breakdown the season so far, as the summer break fast approaches. 

Despite a bumper Bank Holiday weekend across the league, Kieran & Gaz still manage to squeeze in some Champions League Final chat as well as their thoughts on Ireland's win against Hungary. 

Of course, there's the BTS Predictions League and BTS Hotline on yet another fine edition of the show. All of this is brought to you by our proud sponsor, QuinnAv.ie

The LOI's newest managerial name joins us on this week's show as we find out who the new Longford Town FC manager Wayne Groves is and what he's all about. 

In typical LOI podcast fashion, there were a number of big news stories that broke just after we had published last week's show, so Kieran & Gaz kick proceedings off with a chalkboard segment with discussions on Ian Ryan's Bray exit, Jon Daly's swift return with Dundalk and Wayne Groves appointment at Longford. 

As ever, we've got the usual fixture reviews from both divisions, the BTS Predictions League, and one of the best questions ever sent to us on the BTS Hotline, it's worth tuning into the pod for that alone. Enjoy.

Following the concession of two goals in injury time at home to Galway on Friday, Drogheda United boss Kevin Doherty joins us for an extended chat on this week's show. 

The former Shels boss recaps that crazy game on Friday, updates us on Warren Davis's injury, discusses tactics, the competitive nature of the league and why the LOI is being viewed in a totally different light by younger people these days. 

Kieran & Gary reflect on a turbulent start to life at St.Pat's for Stephen Kenny while Gaz makes a big statement in regards to the title race during the BTS Hotline segment. 

As ever, there's the BTS LOI Podcast Predictions League as well as unrivaled coverage of the LOI First Division. Nobody does it better than BTS.

The lads are back for a second pod in the space of 2 days due to the stunning return to LOI management of Stephen Kenny at St.Pat'. 

Meanwhile, on Wednesday afternoon, one of the most bizarre episodes in LOI history (and that's saying something) concluded with Noel King departing Dundalk after just 26 days in charge.

Treaty United manager Tommy Barrett sits down for a lengthy discussion with the lads with the Limerick native admitting this season has been his most testing in charge of the club. 

Kieran & Gary talk set-pieces after an error-filled derby between Rovers and Pats which leads to a wider discussion on the standard of the league this season and why we are seeing so many dull games according to the lads. 

There's lots of Dundalk chat again as the off-field circus at Oriel Park continued to roll this week with Brian Gartland's acrimonious departure, an open fans letter calling for Brian Ainscough to revert his decision to appoint Noel King, and links with Paul Doolin and Ian Baraclough all making the headlines. 

Will Stephen Kenny take the Pat's job, will Stephen O'Donnell and Bohs be a match made in heaven? 

There's the usual BTS Predictions League and BTS Hotline segments and the odd Sopranos reference too. Not to be missed, like a plate of Gabagool. 

The long wait is finally over, for the first time since September 2023, the lads witnessed Longford Town win a competitive game. 

However, that surprisingly takes a backseat on this week's pod following a turbulent Bank Holiday weekend which ultimately cost Jon Daly his job at St.Pat's. 

Kieran & Gaz outline the moving parts that led to Daly's departure and who may replace him at Richmond Park. 

The lads break down who the big winners and losers were over the BH weekend by creating some LOI power rankings while we've got the usual BTS Predictions League and hotline features for you too.
