Walk It InEpisode 67: Lions in Kangaroo CourtLeinster, I mean Ireland, I mean the British and Irish Lions take on Australia this Saturday in the first test of the 2025 series. We take a look at how the Lions are expected to line up, with a strong Irish contention likely to appear, as well as areas where the Lions will need to be strong in to secure victory on Saturday morning. A ten point winning margin for the #PowerofFour is widely predicted, but Joe Schmidt is likely to have something up his sleeve.Tipperary and Cork meet in the All Ireland for the first time...2025-07-161h 04Walk It InEpisode 66: Club (World Cup) ClassicsWhen we go to the Club (World Cup), we want to see those Club (World Cup) Classics, such as Bayern Munich vs Auckland City, River Plate vs Urawa Reds and Man City vs Wydad AC. And in FIFA's eyes, if you don't think they're classics - that's on you. Despite a group stage that threw together fixtures such as the above, there have moments of brilliance. Seeing PSG continue their dominant form, as well as witnessing the passion of the Brazilian teams, means there might be something of substance lurking behind the obvious cash-grab-disguised-as-growing-the-game (a FIFA classic).2025-07-111h 05Walk It InEpisode 65: Ireland Take The Lion's ShareGaelic football has hit the headlines in recent months as the new rules have seeped in and infected/cured several facets of play for the game we know and have become indifferent to.

Diarmait lost power as a ruler in Leinster, and thus went to seek allies from abroad to help reclaim his throne (similar to how Leinster has enlisted the help of foreign imports such as RG Snyman, Jordi Barrett et al.). Whilst enjoying initial success, Diaramit was later buried by the citizens of Dublin with the carcass of a dog, considered to be a huge insult (according to Wikipedia (the entire burial...2025-05-0751 minWalk It InEpisode 63: Augusta PictureOur television screens are set to the lush greens and perfectly maintained flowerbeds as we take in the 88th Masters from Augusta National Golf Club.

We've also painted a picture of those in with a shout of winning the 2025 edition.2025-04-1129 minWalk It InEpisode 62: Champo LeagueoPremier League is back after an international break, but the Champions League is the only show in town for us at Walk It In.

Conor's decision to start supporting the Chiefs 12 years ago has brought unprecedented success to the franchise. We don't believe in coincidences here at WII HQ - it's clear he's solely responsible for their success. Standing in the way of a historic Chiefs three-peat is the Philadelphia Eagles, with the number 1 defense in the League, and a star at running back in Saquon Barkley.

2024-11-2747 minWalk It InEpisode 51: Taylor takes decisionKatie Taylor has done it again. She triumphed over Amanda Serrano on Saturday night in Texas, but more importantly, outshone the mickey mouse fight between Jake Paul and 58 year old Mike Tyson. Whilst she may have utilised the potentially illegal Ballymun speed loaf move to gain the upper hand over Serrano, I'll not hear any begrudgers criticising the judges' decision.
Ireland have so far failed to catch fire in this year's Autumn Internationals, with a lacklustre defeat to New Zealand followed an unconvincing win against Argentina.

The Ten Hag era at Old Trafford has come to an end. His replacement, plucked from the high intensity, high stakes cauldron of Portuguese football (just like his captain Bruno), is Rúben Amorim. His journey to the head seat at United is fascinating, and one we look at in depth.

Lassanna Diarra is not quite a Barclaysman, but did have a storied career, including stints at Chelsea, Arsenal, Real Madrid and PSG. He's been in the news recently after the European Court of Justice ruled in his favour. We explain what it's all about and what it means for football.

Whoever is in the hot seat, be it a mechanic from Macedonia, a French fireman or even a dentist from Iceland, we're absolutely f**cked. Perhaps a Hungarian hypnotist could be used to convince our midfielders they can actually play football.

This weekend may be remembered as the date when that decay was reversed with the birth of the extremely successful Halgrimsson era. What does the future hold for our national team? Will it be multiple tournament appearances or another fourth place finish in the qualifying stage with Heimir?

However, it also needs to make money. It has decided that showing Shamrock Rovers or St. Patrick's Athletic in their European qualifying ties is unprofitable, meaning if you want to watch it, you'll have to head over to the largely good LOITV and watch on a pay per view basis. Is this really the best thing for growing the game in Ireland - not showing its teams performing well in Europe?
