Crikey, didn’t even know we were playing, never saw anything about it until now. Says it all


I’m with you on that. I also look at that list of squad names and think ‘who?’ Probably comes of not watching any premier league games. And all these new formats for between tournaments I just shrug my shoulders and forget about it.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Totally agree this Nations League is a pointless overkill - who really cares, its like the FL Trophy.
We have the Euros & the World Cup qualifier weeks that already screw my my weekends.

I see the Ireland manager is fighting for his job and it's not all about their poor form.

It's been revealed he showed his players an anti-British 'propaganda' video featuring the 1916 Easter Rising and the Great Famine before the match with England at Wembley.

In a statement, the FAI said: “The Football Association of Ireland is aware of issues surrounding content shared with our senior men’s team ahead of the recent friendly against England at Wembley Stadium. The FAI is already looking into this matter internally as a matter of urgency to establish the facts. The FAI has no further comment to make at this time.”


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

It seems slightly odd behaviour when one third of the Ireland squad were born and brought up in England

It wouldn’t surprise me if it wasn’t one of them that dobbed him in. To be honest, most of their players seemed completely disinterested in the game and this could be part of the reason why. Sounds like it is going to backfire big style as I wouldn’t be surprised if it costs him his job.

So would it be perceived as a racial insult?

Well it absolutely would be if the roles were reversed. In fact he would have had to resign as soon as the story broke and it would be front page headlines.
