Mick McCarthy was back in as this week's host of the Crappy Quiz - and what a quiz it was! Two elite quizzers - and Cameron - pit their sporting wits against one another in a real nail-biter finale on Friday's Off The Ball.
The shambles continue because you won't stop watching, as Mick McCarthy hosts the shoutiest segment across a multitude of platforms, still in glorious technicolour. Tommy Rooney is wheeled out of the storage shed, because literally no one else was available, while Will O'Callaghan and Shane Hannon seem to have developed a form of Stockholm syndrome at this point!
The merry-go-round of hosts continues, but thankfully for everyone involved Johnny Ward was late for casting, so Mick McCarthy has valiantly stepped in to take his place as host of this week's quiz (or was it his ego that planned this all along?) Unfortunately, Will 'Larry Birr' O’Callaghan & Nathan 'Black Sox' Murphy have both served out their one-week bans, meaning they make their not so glorious returns to the Quiz, with Shane 'The Monaghan Machete' Hannon slipping into studio just at the last minute.
Ger Gilroy was back in the hot-seat this week as Shane Hannon and Cameron Hill fought it out for 2nd place against the reigning Crappy Quiz champ, Arthur O'Dea. Enjoy!
The Crappy Quiz returns, with Will O'Callaghan in the hosts chair as he babysits an ever-increasingly angry set of contestants. For some reason, Nathan Murphy was angry before he even stepped into studio, Shane Hannon grew increasingly annoyed with the questions in some good ol' Adrian Barry fashion, and Aidan Delaney was just delighted to be making his debut!
Ger Gilroy resumed his role as supreme host of the Crappy Quiz for Friday's Off The Ball! Trying to stop Arthur O'Dea sealing back-to-back wins this week was OTB's own Will O'Callaghan and Adrian Barry. Enjoy!

Mick McCarthy resumed control of the quizmaster's seat this week, while Arthur James O'Dea stepped out of the production box to take on two of the Crappy Quiz's serial underachievers, Tommy Rooney and Adrian Barry. Enjoy!

Standing in for the person that was supposed to stand in for the quizmaster, Will O'Callaghan hosts the shoutiest, sweariest, loudest and most annoying segment across a multitude of platforms, in glorious technicolour! Cameron 'Too many nicknames to ever get one right' Hill, Adrian 'Who's your daddy?' Barry and the Monaghan Machete, Shane 'Carbon Monoxide Canary' Hannon shout over each other as Will sits back and watches this week!

On today's show, we have a clash of the Pods as Tommy Rooney from The Football Pod takes on Will O’Callaghan from The Hurling Pod! We've had to throw a Monaghan Machete in the mix though, just to make sure Shane Hannon has something to do on a Friday.
Ger Gilroy returned to the hot seat for this morning's Crappy Quiz! Reigning champ Will O'Callaghan was up against Cameron Hill and Adrian Barry to see if he could retain his crown. Enjoy!
Johnny Ward was back in the hot seat for this morning's Crappy Quiz! And it went just about as well as you might have imagined... Reigning champ Will O'Callaghan was up against Shane Hannon and Arthur James O'Dea to see if he could retain his crown. Enjoy!
In its third outing of 2023, the Crappy Quiz thankfully descended into farce once again. Adrian Barry, Nathan Murphy and last week's winner Will O'Callaghan went toe-to-toe-to-toe on Friday's Off The Ball. Enjoy!
In its second outing of 2023, the Crappy Quiz had a slightly familiar feel to it on Friday's Off The Ball. Thanks to Adrian Barry's late, late pull out, Arthur James O'Dea was drafted in for a replay of last week's quiz, with Will O'Callaghan and Shane Hannon vying for some revenge. Needless to say, with Johnny Ward hosting it was anything but dull!
