@RealBetis_en Hernandez on a yellow and Parrott remains benched ????
Time to fly away from Betis

@RealBetis_en Time for Parrott to think about flying away from Betis.

@paulrowantree The sooner this International break is over the better. I would put nothing beyond this shower.

@McDonnellDan IMO playing the game has gained a lot more publicity than simply not showing up would have done. Images of bowed heads and no handshakes went around the world. The Israeli fans in the ground making ape sounds and chanting IDF lifted the lid on a very sick society.

@em_ok_right @FitzellMarcus @McDonnellDan They filmed themselves singing IDF IDF

@BarryMasterson Feels like the end for me.
Decades of highs and lows( mostly lows) I have never felt so disconnected or disappointed .
Where are the leaders in the squad ?

[EPD @subofthedaymid]

@emmetmalone Fair.....those reported to have supported Bazunu , but not gone as far to join him, may well have other pressures.

[EPD @subofthedaymid]

@SeanOCSport @IndoSport Gavin Bazuno left alone back in hotel?
Reading the room beyond the rest of them.

[EPD @subofthedaymid]

Most succinct reflection on the situation I've seen.
From Budapest to this.
Utterly depressing.

[Off The Ball @offtheball]

🗣️"I'm just seeing isolated players in a hotel room having to make this call... Where is the leadership from an Irish perspective?"

🗣️"We went from that reconnection with the fans after Hungary... to horrendous reputational damage across all boards."

The Sunday Paper Review panel breaks down the lack of FAI planning and leadership, leaving Irish international players isolated in Hungary to navigate political fallout and severe reputational damage. ⚽☘️

@conorleeson Simple Google search, I'd suggest none of these players on the books of Unique Sports will be walking

[EPD @subofthedaymid]

@slaney_sider @AdamLynch27 Still team captain, silence was deafening.

[Adam Lynch @AdamLynch27]

Dara O’Shea
Troy Parrott
Nathan Collins
Adam Idah
Mark Travers
Finn Azaz
Jake O’Brien
Jack Taylor

These are the players that are with Unique Sports Group. Their agency is full of cowards. The Irish players should have still said fuck them and not play the game

@Freewheeler12 Thoughts on Scales ?

[EPD @subofthedaymid]

@DavidSneyd Nothing to report from today ?

[EPD @subofthedaymid]

@LansdowneRD_IE It should never have come to this, but it has.
The players voted, and shamefully a majority said play.
Even more regrettably Gavin Bazunu has been ostracised and in one case abused to his face.
Are the squad blind to the feelings at home?

[EPD @subofthedaymid]

@BarryMasterson First timers in the squad having an equal say as veterans is ludicrous.
Bazunu not being informed of or given the chance to vote just stinks of manipulation and pressure.
Feels like a huge moment.
Praying for more heroes to emerge today.
