THE LOI POD: Is the title race over before it started? | Derry and Waterford book FAI Cup date

Stephen Doyle is joined by Gareth McGlynn and Vinny Perth on this week’s LOI Pod as the SSE Airtricity Premier Division season heads for the finish line.

We react to a huge weekend: Shamrock Rovers’ derby win over Bohemians and what it means for their title run, plus the talking points from the full-time scenes afterwards.

There’s also plenty on the FAI Cup finalists, with Waterford and Derry City booking their Aviva date — including praise for Pádraig Amond, Michael Duffy, Ellis Chapman and the management job Graham Coughlan is doing.

Plus, we look ahead to Friday’s live commentary: St Patrick’s Athletic v Shelbourne.
