The FAI showed leadership, just not the leadership the activists & the activist media wanted
They wouldn't accept the decision and pressured the FAI & the players so much they took a player vote. Another yes vote
Now they're blaming the FAI for a lack of leadership 😀
Back in 2014, there was a man who was already aware of the irregularities involving Manchester City. That man now runs FIFA. The infamous Gianni Infantino, then UEFA General Secretary, abused his authority, shared confidential documents and, in short, outmanoeuvred the Investigatory Chamber, doing everything in his power to ensure that both Manchester City and PSG would merely receive a fine, avoiding a deeper investigation that could have led to a Champions League ban. All of these details were also revealed through Football Leaks.
Given his actions as UEFA General Secretary and, more recently, as FIFA President, I can only say, in my humble opinion, that Gianni Infantino has become a cancer on football and should have no place in the future of the game.
What a performance and a result. These are true irish heroes. In the face of bullying, threats and severe backlash from far left bullies and one of their own teammates in bazunu they stood firm. Went out and beat Israel in style in one of our best ever performances. Well done 👏
Brenda Power is a rare voice of moral clarity amongst the Irish commentariat on this issue. In under a minute she eviscerates Ireland’s hypocrisy.
‘There wasn’t a single peep of protest to the Irish cricket team voluntarily playing Afghanistan last month, where women are treated worse than battery chickens. It is the most extreme humanitarian crisis in the world right now, as far as I can see, the gender apartheid in Afghanistan. Not a word of protest.’
‘Where was your indignation when we played [Afghanistan]? England wouldn’t play them, South Africa wouldn’t play them, New Zealand wouldn’t play them. The great humanitarians in Ireland had absolutely no difficulty. We’re hypocrites.’

We are 6 days away from the first of two Nations League matches between Israel and Republic of Ireland.
At this point the gloves are off. Israelis are beginning to learn about the insane Jew hatred within Republic of Ireland now.
Important to note:
❌ This response is to the Republic of Ireland coach who claimed “we are playing against genocide”. Perhaps he has no choice due to the pandemic of a mental illness in the Republic of Ireland?
❌ A small and vocal section of Ireland has been up in arms about these two fixtures ever since they were drawn. There is no pushback in the Irish media to blood libel claims like “genocide”. RTE and Second Captains are absolutely clueless on the Middle East.
❌ Republic of Ireland chose to play a friendly with the slave state of Qatar.
❌ No one in ROI has any problem with Ireland playing cricket against Afghanistan.
❌ The two Israel matches will be played with no adverts, commentary or pundits. In some sort of hilarious and pathetic protest.
❌ Republic of Ireland moved their home game against Israel to Serbia.
✅ Israel have three Israeli-Arabs in the squad. Mohamed Abu Fani. Anan Khalaili. Sayed Abu Farkhi.
❌ Israel cannot play home games in Israel because Hamas launched a 7-front war. Also joined by Hezbollah, Houthis and Iran.
❌ No one in the Republic of Ireland has ever called for Iran, Lebanon or Yemen to be banned from football. Only Israel.
✅ Ireland is in the midst of a mental illness called Jew hate. And to excuse this they will lie about “genocide”, “settler colonialism” and “apartheid”.
✅ Kenny Cunningham is on the right side of history in Republic of Ireland.
✅ Kosovo is over 90% Muslim. They are in the same Nations League group as Ireland and Israel and no one in Kosovo is bothered about facing the only Jewish state.
Austria host Israel on Thursday in the Nations League.
There will be no change of venue, no empty stadium, no stripped back broadcast.
Anybody still trying to convince you that the rest of the world is waiting for Ireland to take the lead is lying to you.
