OTB AM SPORTS ROUND-UP | Fergie's time, Leinster departures & GAA perspective

The sands of time pass for us all at the same rate, but occasionally in life there is reason to pause and appreciate what we each have. In football, those who regard the English game with interest have seen the Premier League era defined by Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger's rivalry, and it would appear that the touching tribute paid by Manchester United to Wenger last weekend is now all the more poignant as we are confronted by Fergie's potential passing.

On OTB AM this morning, Daniel Harris joined us to talk about Ferguson's influence on Manchester United and the skills that surpassed football. We have seen tributes paid to the former United manager from all walks of life. Daniel also covered where he feels we are in the relegation race, and confided in us which survival-threatened pub 'deserves' to stay in the Premier League.
