Gary is back from Turkey, along with Karl's Tallaght Time co-author Macdara Ferris in the Lair. We've broken the record for longest podcast ever but it's #TFTES250 so it's allowed. We talk about writing the book, published 10 years ago this week, there's our Worst XI's since 2009 and short, older interviews with Michael O'Neill (from BBC) and Ryan Thompson (Con Murphy for SRFC TV) on their time at Rovers.

It's 'That 70's Show' with John Byrne and Martin Moore, who were just impressionable teenagers in a grim era of League of Ireland football as the crowds seemed to disappear overnight. Part 1, recorded at the Four Provinces Pub in Kimmage/Crumlin, takes us from the end of the six-in-a-row in 1970 through to the 1975/76 season, when the club finished rock bottom of the league table for the first and only time in history.
