Send us a text Join a single (but not ready to mingle) Conor this week as he explores Ireland's worst result... a 7 (SEVEN) - 0 loss to Brazil in May 1982. This is one of the worst instances of FAI mismanagement and includes canceled friendlies, an international war and not paying players. Can't imagine why they lost...

Send us a text From 1990 to 2000, the Republic of Ireland featured five one cap wonders which, if we do say so ourselves, make up quite the decent 5-a-side team. Join Conor and Johnny as they discuss they five players good enough to play for the Republic of Ireland but who sadly failed to make it back for a second date. We'll discuss the cult hero goalkeeper good enough to play in a cup final, the centre back who had to fight off nationality suspicions, a cracking Premier League Caption, a Scotsman turned Irishman and a lower league cult hero. Have we given away too much? Nah! Also shout outs for two players who banged around Ireland's youth set ups but never progressed to the internationals—included because Conor loves a tryer!

Send us a text This week our Boys discuss the FAI's plans to save the Eircom League/League of Ireland during the mid-2000s. They look at the often forgotten Genesis II Report ( or the White Paper on the Strategic Direction of the Eircom League ) which detailed how poorly run the League was at this point. Really important retrospection on why Irish players struggled to develop during this point, why domestic teams suffered and, ultimately, why the League of Ireland is currently in a resurgence Follows us on those socials boysweveseen on Instagram @boysweveseen on Twitter Or email us at boysweveseen@gmail.com…
