We hear from City manager Barry Robson after his side guaranteed their spot in the Premier next season while Dan Casey chats to RedFM's Ruairi O'Hagan about the league win

Breifne Earley and Aaron Clarke (@LetsTalkLOIW) are back to break down another weekend of SSE Airtricity League Women's Premier Division action as the season moves towards its decisive stages. Athlone Town's pursuit of a third consecutive league title continues to gather momentum after another significant victory, this time coming away to Shamrock Rovers. The champions left Tallaght with a 2-1 victory and another precious three points as they continue to put themselves in control of the destination of the league trophy. There was a big result at the Showgrounds too. Sligo Rovers' excellent run of form was halted by Waterford, who travelled north and produced an impressive 2-1 victory. Breifne and Aaron look at a result that once again demonstrates just how competitive the league has become. Galway United were made to work for all three points against Cork City. Five goals and plenty of drama eventually produced a 3-2 Galway victory as they attempt to keep themselves involved at the business end of the table. Peamount United also enjoyed an excellent afternoon on the road, putting three unanswered goals past DLR Waves, while Treaty United secured another important result with a 1-0 victory over Bohemians at the Markets Field. The lads discuss what all five results tell us about the current state of the league, the title picture and the teams building momentum as we enter the closing stages of the campaign. Finally, the show turns to Tolka Park and a fascinating meeting between Shelbourne and the University of North Carolina. With UNC in Dublin around the Aer Lingus College Football Classic, the game provided a rare opportunity to see one of American college soccer's most famous programmes take on League of Ireland opposition. Breifne and Aaron look back at the occasion, the football on display and what can be learned from bringing the NCAA and League of Ireland women's games together.

Galway United produced a stunning comeback from two goals down in Eamonn Deacy Park on Saturday (29th August 2026) to secure a crucial win in the SSE Airtricity League Women's Premier Division. After going 2-0 down inside 16, Abbie Callanan halved the deficit by half-time. Second half strikes from Isabella Beletic and Lucy-Jayne Grant ensured the home side's return to their traditional home venue was a winning one. Afterwards, Galway United manager Phil Trill chatted with Galway Bay FM's James Doyle. == Galway United's next game is at home to Treaty United next Saturday (5th September). Kick-off at Eamonn Deacy Park is 7.35pm.

Breifne Earley and Aaron Clarke (@LetsTalkLOIW) are back to review the Club Orange FAI Women's Cup semi-finals before turning their attention to a full weekend of SSE Airtricity League Women's Premier Division action. Athlone Town and Galway United produced a tense semi-final encounter with little to separate two of the country's leading sides. Ultimately it took a penalty shootout to decide who would progress, with Athlone holding their nerve to book another major final and keep their hopes of adding cup silverware to their title challenge alive. There was considerably less uncertainty in the other semi-final. Shelbourne travelled to Leeside and produced a devastating performance against Cork City, hitting six without reply to emphatically secure their place in the FAI Women's Cup Final. The result continues a remarkable run of form for the Reds, who have forced themselves back into the league title conversation and now have another major trophy firmly in their sights. With the cup finalists decided, attention switches back to the Women's Premier Division this weekend. Shamrock Rovers' meeting with Athlone Town is one of the standout fixtures as the champions continue their pursuit of a third successive league title, while Galway United look to respond when they welcome Cork City. Sligo Rovers host Waterford at the Showgrounds, Treaty United meet Bohemians at the Markets Field, and DLR Waves face Peamount United as another important round of league fixtures gets underway. There's also an unusual international flavour at Tolka Park on Friday night. Ahead of the Aer Lingus College Football Classic weekend in Dublin, Shelbourne welcome NCAA opposition from the University of North Carolina for a fascinating meeting between the League of Ireland and one of the best-known collegiate programmes in the United States. Breifne and Aaron discuss what can be taken from the fixture, the very different structures surrounding the women's game in Ireland and the NCAA, and another busy weekend ahead across the league.

Dan Casey was joined by Harry Hayden to discuss the women's team loss in the FAI Cup and the men's 2-2 draw with Treaty last night

Galway United suffered a heartbreaking penalty shoot-out defeat away to Athlone Town in their Club Orange Women's FAI Cup semi-final on Saturday evening (22nd August 2026). Cara Griffin's superb equaliser on 71 minutes put the visitors to Athlone Town Stadium back on terms and the sides couldn't be separated in the final 20 minutes and in the extra half hour that followed. Lucy-Jayne Grant, Eve Dossen and Anna McGough found the net with their resulting penalties but unfortunately for Isabella Beletic and Niamh Farrelly, they were denied. Galway Bay FM's match commentary team were Jonathan Higgins and James Doyle. == Galway United's next game is at home against Cork City in the SSE Airtricity League Women's Premier Division next Saturday (29th).  Kick-off at Eamonn Deacy Park is 5pm.

Breifne Earley and Aaron Clarke (@LetsTalkLOIW) return after a two-week break to catch up on a hugely significant period in the SSE Airtricity League Women's Premier Division and Club Orange FAI Women's Cup. After a difficult couple of weeks away from the show following a family bereavement, the lads have plenty of football to work through, including the two rearranged league fixtures played over the last two nights. The title race has taken a dramatic turn, with Athlone Town putting one hand on a third consecutive league trophy. Victories over Peamount United, Sligo Rovers and Wexford FC have strengthened the Midlanders' position at the top just as their closest challengers have started to stumble. Galway United's previously relentless challenge has hit its first sustained speed bump of the campaign, with dropped points away to Sligo Rovers and Bohemians allowing Athlone to seize the initiative. But the title race is far from a two-team affair. Shelbourne have quietly put together one of the strongest runs in the division. Victories over Wexford, Bohemians, Peamount and Cork City have propelled the Reds right back into contention and suddenly added another dimension to the battle at the top. Breifne and Aaron look at how the momentum has shifted, what the recent results tell us about the leading contenders and where the title race now stands heading into the decisive stages of the season. Attention also returns to the Club Orange FAI Women's Cup. The lads look back at the quarter-finals which opened the month before turning their attention to this weekend's semi-finals. Cork City face the considerable task of attempting to dethrone holders Shelbourne, while Athlone Town host Galway United in a heavyweight encounter between two sides whose rivalry has already helped define the 2026 season. By the end of the weekend, just two clubs will remain on the road to the FAI Women's Cup Final.

Dan Casey was joined by Harry Hayden to chat about Cork City's season so far as well as what the rest of the season and next year holds for the club

One of Down Syndrome Clare's largest fundraising events, The Tour De Munster, came to a conclusion yesterday afternoon.    The 600k round trip culminated with a ride up St.Patrick's hill in Cork City, with cyclists traversing this county from Killlaloe to Killimer on Friday, stopping for lunch at The Temple Gate Hotel here in Ennis.    Volunteers were fundraising up and down the county, with every penny raised in Clare put back into the delivery of services for Down Syndrome Clare, which last year enabled them to secure property for use as the company headquarters in the county town.    Clare FM's Darragh O'Grady spoke to Down Syndrome Clare representatives Orla Shannon and Donal Monaghan at the event on Friday, but first Tour De Munster founder Paul Sheridan spoke about the importance of the Tour, which is now into its 26th year.

Cork City based indie-folk band BRIARS releaser their high-octane new single, ‘Roimh'. With a sound that ranges from fragile subtlety to raucous energy, BRIARS weave shades of alternative folk, indie, pop, rock and Irish traditional music that combine into a sprawling and irresistibly energetic sound. Having shared bills with groups such as The Scratch, The Wran, Leevy and Billow Wood and performing at some of the country's leading folk festivals (Whelan's Folk and Trad Fest, Galway Folk Festival, Guinness Cork Jazz Festival, Cork Roots Festival) alongside Electric Picnic and more, the six-piece are quickly gaining “must-see” status as a live act. With touches of Arcade Fire, Bear's Den, Hudson Taylor and The Riptide Movement, upcoming single ‘Roimh' (the Irish word for ‘before', pronounced ‘Riv') is a song rooted in perseverance. Celebrating the kinetic energy and momentum that is born from hope and human connection, the single doesn't linger on endings, but on the beauty of the build-up itself; embracing the journey regardless of the outcome. The band explain: “The idea is that even if things don't go as planned, or something ends badly, that it does not negate the time that was spent trying to get there. It would be easy to think “what's the point in doing something if it's just going to end anyway?”, but it would take us no where.” They add: “It is partly about the struggle to achieve certain things, and trying to have the persistence to keep going; whether it's moving on from a relationship that doesn't end well, or the devastation after someone has passed away, but you're looking back fondly on all the memories. The bad at the end doesn't discount the good that came before.” Dashed with the band's signature Irish traditional feel, the song features an array of instruments - bouzouki, bass, drums, piano, harmonium, synth, fiddle and accordion - which captures their ability to bridge old and new with ease.

Want to learn more about holistic farming and food production systems that prioritize health? In today's episode with Pat, we will discuss how to support farmers who are looking for alternatives to synthetic chemicals, antibiotics, and artificial intervention, as well as how homeopathy can help farmers practice whole-health farming. Pat Aherne is a conventional farmer with an unconventional outlook. Pat is located on what is properly the last piece of farmland between Cork Airport and Cork City. He holds the title of being the last farmer in his parish of Ballyphehane, a once thriving farming community and home to the famous CMP Dairies. He owns a herd of 90 cows under the prefix AnnaMaria (named after his two daughters). Pat is the third generation on the farm. His grandmother bought the farm in 1958, Pat's father Patrick took over in 1970 and Pat took over in 2014. Pat started to explore a more unconventional approach to farming when he had a major outbreak of mastitis 13 years ago, with sixteen cases being treated at one time. Amazingly, he did get on top of the problem but swore that he would never subject his cows to the same level of antibiotic treatment again. Pat has transformed his herd's health and fertility while reducing antibiotic use through a homeopathic approach learned over the last 10 years. He is passionate about a naturopathic approach to his herd of 90 dairy cows and now leads the way in Ireland and the UK as a homeopath farmer. Check out these episode highlights: 01:47 - How Pat first introduce to homeopathy 07:32 - The power of homeopathic remedies in animals 16:21 - How do you use homeopathy on the farm 20:00 - Treating injuries through homeopathy 26:20 - Pat's best man's cancer diagnosis 29:07 - How to deal with depression 3145 - What happens when you don't want to be near animals 36:33 - Why sharing your story is so powerful 38:03 - How can people learn more about homeopathy through online courses Find out more about Pat Website: https://wholehealthag.org/ Link for more info about the online courses https://nots.ie/events/progressive-farm-homeopathy-online/ For international farmers https://learning.wholehealthag.org/farm-homeopathy-foundation-course Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thehomeopathfarmer/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_homeopath_farmer_/ If you would like to support the Homeopathy Hangout Podcast, please consider making a donation by visiting www.EugenieKruger.com and click the DONATE button at the top of the site.
