“It’s been slipping these last couple of weeks guys - seems like you’re not providing as much as usual. And dropping in GAA related material is no substitute. You’ll need to step it up if you want to retain subscribers”

“Hey guys, love the show, but could you please reverse your episodes so the latest one is at the top. You’re the only podcast I have to scroll down through 100 episodes to get the the latest. I’m sure it’s a quick fix.”

“Hi Off the Ball- bit ridiculous and you are milking this podcast when we have to pay a premium and still have to listen to a number of ads. Please make it ad free for subscribers or I’ll be cancelling and listening to the plethora of other and free podcasts!!!”

“Downloads on subscription package are not downloading, regular issues but erratic in their occurrence.
Also, several recent episodes got cut off before finished. Not what is expected just after putting everything behind a paywall, bad form after years of good content.”

“So I subscribed to OTB RUGBY for €100 and what I get is early access to Monday night, rugby and Wednesday night, occasional interviews with O’Gara, and O’Driscoll. Can you do any better please?”

“What a load of tosh was his sum up of Leinster v La Rochelle. Could he not see that one team scored 3 tries the other none and never looked like scoring. La Rochelle also put one over Leinster last year as well. Leinster tactics were totally wrong always going for the 3 pointer rather than the...”Read full review »

“Poor analysis with only Munster or Leinster former players which leads to only discussion about why those players should be on Ireland team. Blame Stockdale a common theme/agenda with presenter asking “should we just give up on him”?? The 42 provides a far more rounded view of Irish rugby and...”Read full review »

“Would really appreciate a “ tactics for idiots “ slot-suggest Andy Dunne.
But keep it simple and get more complex as it goes on.
If you’re out of the game a while you can feel lost in technicalities.
Also please please please do stuff on the club game .
Thanks a mill ,
