Stephen Doyle, Vinny Perth and Gareth McGlynn are back for the LOI Pod once again. With the season over, the lads look ahead to Sunday's big game as Waterford and Derry City battle it out for the Club Orange FAI Cup in the Aviva Stadium

You can listen to LIVE commentary of the FAI Cup Final on Off The Ball Sunday on Newstalk or the GoLoud App. Tune in from 1PM for build-up of Irish Football's biggest match of the year.

Meanwhile, Vinny and Gareth discuss the current way elite player development is done across the league and if the LOI is slipping behind the likes of the NIFL in terms of players departing to foreign academies after Brexit.

Also, a look to Saturday's big Promotion/Relegation decider between Drogheda United and UCD in Tallaght Stadium. Are UCD ready for top flight football or will Drogheda continue their Premier Division status streak.
