This week on The Back Page, host Shane Stapleton is joined by Bernard Flynn, Alan Cawley and Ladbrokes' Declan Marron for another week of banter and betting tips.

There is a lot to discuss with the FA Cup up for starters including Arsenal v Man United - but has all the glamour gone?

The lads also look at the Premier League mid-week ties and there are predictions for the upcoming League of Ireland season - time for Shamrock Rovers to challenge?

Also up for discussion is the opening weekend of the Allianz League with some confident selections, horse racing from Cheltenham, and much more.
