Listen as they do their very best to try and get through the fact Ireland aren't at the World Cup which starts in a matter of days. The lads look at the bright side and the Irish interest appearing at this World Cup - Pico Lopez from Shamrock Rovers will play for Cape Verde and Dublin's Richie Partridge will be on the medical team for Qatar - have they missed anyone else? The lads look ahead to Ireland Vs France in the Women's World Cup qualifier on Tuesday Night. Can Ireland actually have a team at the World Cup before the week is out? They look back the Ireland against Canada in their latest friendly. Then they address the footballing elephant in the room.

With news imminent that Ireland will play their fixture behind closed doors - what will this mean for the players - for those who want to play and those who dont?
