The GAA Social returns- Neil Lennon on GAA, the Irish job, helping Dublin to Sam, Jim McGuinness, threats & a changing society

This is the remarkable life and story of Neil Lennon, wrapped in the hands of Gaelic Games. Born in Lurgan in County Armagh, Lennon rose to prominence in Gaelic games. Captaining his school and club in Lurgan, winning an All-Ireland with St Michael's before playing alongside Kieran McGeeney for Armagh, losing the Ulster final to Derry.

That Ulster final ignited a relationship with former Derry player Anthony Tohill, who ended up at Celtic Park on Old Firm day. Chris Sutton taking bets on who could "Slap" David Beckham and the remarkable chilling management call made by Martin O'Neill on Cup final day. It's a fascinating insight into the ruthless nature of management.

The podcast takes a look at a changing Irish society and for the first time Neil Lennon explains the details of how his International career ended, with the visit of two police officers. That low point fired a drive in Lennon, delivering managerial success and becoming Celtic manager at just 38.

Neil Lennon also answers questions on the vacant Republic of Ireland managers job. Is he the man for the job?
