The Buildup, in association with Ladbrokes is our weekly look ahead to the weekend's sport,. Unfortunately, there is no sport this weekend or any weekend for the foreseeable future.

Instead, each week we speak to Ladbrokes ambassadors Kevin Doyle, Stephen Ferris and Jason Quigley about a host of sporting topics from the past, present and future. This week, with our Best Irish Sports Manager bracket about to be launched, we talk to Kevin about the numerous managers he had throughout his career at club and international level, what makes a good manager, and what doesn't. We also push the former Ireland striker on where his vote will go in the bracket!

Also this week, Mick and Donny have an in depth discussion about Ireland's greatest managers across all of the different sports, and painstakingly whittle it down to a final 16 (Or do they?)
