Did the football walking tour this morning with Aodhan O Riordain & Gary Cooke. Really enjoyable couple of hours walking around the north inner city. The 2 lads know their stuff. 
Would definitely recommend & it’s free!

4 of the lads, all posters on here at some stage

You could do it with your missus tho, especially if she has any interest in Irish history. We got a great morning for it weather wise

Just listened to the podcast on OTB there about it. Sounds very interesting, will try and go on it during the summer.

Did it this morning, very good, well worth it. We got a bit lucky and had Tony Ward doing the tour as a punter, some interesting stories.

Aodhán was on the podcast with myself during the week, talked about the tour, and a lot to do with football governance. Interesting guy, very well spoken

Did this yesterday. Would recommend people to do it. Some great history shared throughout the tour.

He's mostly known for the Dunphy impressions but I'd forgot how good Cooke's impressions of Giles are.
