NATIONAL LEAGUERS


The new season has begun and there's plenty to talk about. The Leaguers have all decided individually to give Des Cahill a call on Sportscall.

 

CAHILL - Ten minutes left in the programme. Any Man U Fans out there want to ring about something, any Clare hurling fans, Eddie Irvine, any calls on that. Just get in touch with us. I'm told we have Drog on the phone. Hello Drog

DROGHEDA FAN - Howya. Am I on the radio.

CAHILL - Yes

DROGHEDA FAN - Ha ha, you're gay, tee hee

CAHILL - What are you ringing about ?

No response from Drog but there is the sound of a zip being pulled down and a voice in the background shouting " Oh no , not on the carpet again "

CAHILL - Erm , we'll bring in Rebel on Line2 , hello there

CORK FAN - Boutcha Dessie boy, I was listening on the radio there this evening and I tell ya there wasn't a mention of Cork being top of the League at all boy. I tell ya boy Patsy'll give you a good talking to if you don't tell me boy, wheres the coverage boy

CAHILL - Well I'm actually live from Wembley Cork fan so I haven't heard the news this evening but I tell you I'm a big National League fan. I'm a huge Bray fan.
