They only have a few stadiums up to the necessary standard. Hampden, Ibrox, Celtic Park. Maybe Murrayfield too, but that is a rugby union stadium. Everywhere else is too small.

There was talk of a Celtic nations bid at one point, but the FAI have major financial problems at the moment.

The FAI have major incompetence and corruption problems which are manifesting financially. They couldnā€™t even get the name of the country right from the very beginning.

Well I loved it most my life even if my team wasnā€™t there. Tonight though Iā€™m sorry not sorry that Ireland denied Scotland a place in the World Cup next year.

Delighted a Donegal woman did it this week.

Ah. Yeah fairly unambiguous.

A spin-off of the old school ooh-aah-Paul McGrath chant from the '80ā€™s & '90ā€™s.

Thanks

Iā€™m not going to link to the Sky Sports reporter mansplaining/britsplaining Irish history to one of the players though.

On another note itā€™s great to realise that English soccer will no longer engage in its annual ā€œyou must wear a plastic flower to glorify the imperial armyā€ from now on as they are sensitive to people who have been murdered.

All of a sudden.
