    What is your favourite sporting noise? | Breakfast Buffet | OFF THE BALL BREAKFAST

    Colm Boohig, Enda Coll, Keith Treacy & Matthew Brennan tuck into the Breakfast Buffet, starting with the big question: fry-up or croissant and coffee – and what footballers really ate as nutrition culture changed through the years. From there it’s a proper grab-bag: Ireland jerseys and the ones fans love most, why modern kits look better without sponsors, and the start of “darts season” – including Luke Littler, dominance, underdogs and why we love to see the big dog toppled. Plus: favourite sporting sounds, songs that define montage moments, public-transport pet hates, crisp flavours, and a plug for the Bank of Ireland Rugby Road Show in Belfast (with a new guest: Richie Murphy).

    Where do Man City go from here!? | OFF THE BALL BREAKFAST

Colm Boohig, Keith Treacy Enda Coll & Matthew Brennan dig into what the verdict actually says, what sanctions could (and should) follow, and why “a fine” just doesn’t cut it. They debate everything from points deductions and expulsion, to who’s most aggrieved, what it means for players and former stars, and how football even begins to quantify the damage.

    What SHOULD the FAI have done? | OFF THE BALL BREAKFAST

    FAI president Paul Cooke faces the media after Ireland’s Nations League game with Israel — and Off The Ball Breakfast plays his full, combative exchange in full. Cooke insists the decision to fulfil the fixture was “football democracy”, hits out at the coverage around the camp, and is repeatedly pressed on sanctions, player consultation and what would’ve happened if the squad had voted not to play. Matthew Brennan and Dara Smith-Naughton dig into the messy fallout: the Gavin Bazunu situation, the divisiveness of a player vote, the lack of clear FAI leadership, and how much damage this week may have done to the team’s bond with the public.
