Show Notes

In a special episode of The Press Box, in association with Zoma, Craig and James sat down with former Dundalk FC defender Stephen McGuinness to discuss the club's memorable 2002 FAI Cup victory over Bohemians at Tolka Park when Garry Haylock's double secured what was the club's ninth Cup success. In a wide-ranging interview Stephen reveals that relegation before the final still haunts him 20 years on, his fear that the side would miss the game due to traffic delays, how he went missing with the Cup as the town of Dundalk waited for it and he also looks ahead to the side's reunion ahead of the Sligo Rovers match on April 15th. There's much more from Stephen including an update on his work with the PFAI and plenty of memories of a special day in the club's history.
