David Wilson

So Keith Andrews, we'll talk about that over the course of the next hour really.

I am joined, as you can see on your screens, if you are watching, by David Wilson, as always.

How are you, Dave?

Yeah, all good, all good.

Unfortunately, we're not joined by Ben Symes today, which is a shame.

But he will be back.

We can confirm he will be back.

So all the best to Ben, wherever he's doing.

I actually know what he's doing right now.

I think there's only really one place to start here, David.

Of course, I mentioned some.

news about the coaching ticket and about some new deals coming our way and David Snade is reporting in 42 that over the course of this international window we're going to have a contract extensions for both John O'Shea and Paddy McCarthy so Hamer Hagrimson we know is going to be here until at least the end of Euro 2028 so you would have to imagine that these coaching deals these tickets these extensions for Paddy McCarthy and John O'Shea will run to that duration as well

I know, yeah.

Yeah, I think so.

Yeah, I think for sure.

And the John O'Shea thing is interesting as well because in that period where he was the interim, which was quite a long time, which is easy to forget how long that period... 140 days or something.

Yeah, probably more.

I wouldn't say there was angst towards John O'Shea, but people weren't totally...

People weren't there wasn't complete buy in as especially around talk of him getting the job on a full time basis and all that sort of stuff but and even in the beginning and actually even more recently as well when he stepped in to do the kind of press duty to press conferences ahead of big games when Hamer hasn't been doing it and

And there's no real reason as to why that is.
