Wanted: New football manager, huge game for hurlers, Fionan Mahony interview and minor football preview

<p>It could not be any busier for Laois GAA teams at the moment. </p> <p>In the last 12 days there have been seven championship games for Laois teams - and an amount of talking points and controversies. </p> <p>We've had extra times and penalty shootouts and a resignation from Laois senior football manager Mike Quirke. </p> <p>And coming up we have the Laois hurlers in a crucial All Ireland Qualifier game against Antrim that also doubles up as relegation game to see who will drop to the Joe McDonagh Cup in 2022. </p> <p>We start this episode by discussing Mike Quirke's decision to step down as Laois football manager in the wake of Sunday's 3-20 to 1-10 loss to Westmeath in the Leinster championship. How will his time in charge be remembered, who are the contenders to take over - and what can we expect of Laois over the next couple of seasons. </p> <p>We look ahead to Laois's must-win hurling clash with Antrim as well as hearing from U-20 hurling captain as they look ahead to a Leinster quarter-final clash with Kilkenny next week on the back of wins over Westmeath and Antrim. </p> <p>We also cast our eye back over the Laois v Kildare minor hurling championship game on Wednesday night that saw Laois crash out at the first hurdle. </p> <p>And as well as looking ahead to the Laois v Louth minor football game, we hear from Dan Bannon, host of the Louth and Proud Podcast. </p>
