Bitesize - Saturday May 9th

from Over The Bar

Welcome to Bitesize, a brand-new bonus series from Over The Bar, where Michael Foley and Ciaran O’Hara uncover the hidden historical stories behind the weekend’s fixtures. In the first episode, the lads explore the unwanted record the Cork footballers are hoping to avoid, why there’s something historically significant about Kildare facing Galway in the Leinster Hurling Championship, the hoodoo the Déise are desperate to end, and the remarkable record the footballers of the Tribesmen are chasing. A quick-hit blend of history, trivia and championship context — perfect for the road to the weekend’s action. For those who want more Gaelic Games History, you can join our Cairde Club for less than the price of a match programme for month - where you'll get exclusive episodes, bonus content, ad free and early release versions of the main podcast.
