TFTES-17-12-18

The theme of our last show of the year is Rovers' 17th and most recent league title which was won on October 25th, 2011. Joining us in Johnny Blues Bar are Ken Oman and Dean Kelly, who, having suffered injuries in the middle of the season, came back and were sprung from the bench to score the goals that night at UCD. Two Finglas natives, the lads talk about starting out their careers, joining the Hoops seven years ago, carpooling with Gary O'Neill and Ronan Finn, Tallinn and Copenhagen and Michael O'Neill's management style. Ken discusses the 2010 run-in from Bohs' perspective, being embarrassed by Gary Twigg and reuniting with him at Portadown, cutting his hair before the Setanta Cup final, scoring in Russia and the Stephen Kenny season when he was captain. Dean remembers going for Liam Buckley's fingers, Pat Flynn's rap about him, returning to the club for a second spell and of course his 94th winner at Belfield and the celebrations that followed that etched his name into Rovers folklore.
