It has been a tough season for a couple of Irish League sides so far, but nobody more than Portadown. They came into a fresh campaign led by new manager David Jeffery, with a boatload of fresh faces through the door. But all it has left them is bottom of the table with a solitary point to their name.
Is this just a horrible start to a season for a team in transition, or are Portadown the most likely team to be playing Championship football next season?
Dave Watt joins the podcast to reflect on two Premiership gameweeks and gives us an extended insight into everything going on in the Irish League’s second tier
