Talking Sport Podcast: Killian Fitzpatrick interview, Monday night football & man of the match selections

Due to the unprecedented situation of no supporters being allowed at matches, we are doing special bonus Talking Sport Podcasts all this week.

Today, presenter Steven Miller is joined by Ballyfin manager Killian Fitzpatrick to look back on their thrilling win over Rosenallis.

Fitzpatrick guided Ballyfin to intermediate success in 2014 and to a senior semi-final last year. On this occasion they came from six points down late in the first half to win a very exciting game by 3-10 to 2-12.

Incidentally it was Ballyfin’s first time ever to win the opening game in the senior grade meaning they cannot be dragged into a relegation battle.

Rory Delaney reflects on O’Dempsey’s big win over Courtwood and Alan Hartnett was watching Portlaoise v Ballylinan and also caught the end of the Clonaslee v Mountmellick game.

We pick a man of the match from all three senior games as well as discussing the junior championship action which included impressive wins for Park-Ratheniska and Camross.

As well as that we look forward to all of Tuesday night’s action.

Incidentally, both Killian and Rory are teachers and face a big week as the schools re-open for the new term. They chat briefly about what lies ahead for teachers, students and parents.

You can listen to this week’s Talking Sport episode on Apple PodcastsSpotify or Podbean.
