The Buildup Football - Kevin Doyle On If Steve Staunton Was Hard Done By

Published: March 12, 2020, 3:42 p.m.

The Buildup is Balls.ie weekly podcast, with Ladbrokes, where we preview all the major sporting action for the weekend ahead. We'll be building the hype, whetting the appetite and making some bold predictions for everything that's happening.

This is the football section of the show where we talk to former Republic of Ireland international Kevin Doyle. With the near future of football and Ireland's trip to Bratislava uncertain, we talk to Kevin about playing behind closed doors, and about his own experience in Slovakia, when he scored probably his best goal for Ireland. 

That was also the match after which Stephen Ireland left the Ireland squad for good. We ask Kevin if there was too much hysteria surrounding Steve Staunton's time as Ireland manager and if, in hindsight, he was hard done by?
