Have to admire Brian Kerr he has stuck to his guns on Palestine and on these games with Israel. Between him and Gavin Bazunu they make us proud. We hang our head in shame when it comes to the @FAIreland and the Ireland manager. #StopTheGame lads.
🗣️'WHETHER IT'S SIX POINTS OR SIX MILLION IT'S SMALL COMPARED TO SUFFERING OF THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE!'
Brian Kerr has called for Senior FAI officials including CEO David Courell to resign following the decision to play Israel in tomorrow's UEFA Nations League fixture.

So it was 60/40 even after all the pressure and blackmailing of the players.
The Government has to do what it should have done from the start and end this diabolical charade.

14-8 was the vote according to Kerr’s contacts. That’s not a “significant majority” and Bazunu wasn’t even made aware of the vote, he was excluded from the poxy meeting. Fuck off. #ireland

Incredible statement from Gavin Bazunu.
"My decision is based purely upon my personal belief that the killing of innocent people is wrong."
Sometimes it's just that simple.
A hero.

Proud to be standing with residents on the Garvaghy Road tonight. Everyone is waiting anxiously for the court decision.
The Orange Order cannot be allowed to march down the road tomorrow in a display of sectarian triumphalism. Society must not be dragged backwards.

Vote PBP because we've got the best policies but mostly because we'd fire the entire FAI board.

This Irish government and FAI should hang their heads in shame. Gavin Bazunu has shown, the courage and leadership they so sadly lack. Even at this late hour the Government and FAI should do the right thing, call the game off and not leave this on the shoulders of players.

Not long now until the Sindo interview with David Courell saying how difficult the decision was and what a toll it has taken on him and his family and that he is in fact the real victim.

Next up. Burnham appeals for calm in Brixton as 35 KKK get the go-ahead to parade through with just one burning cross
Prime Minister Andy Burnham has appealed for "calm" after the Parades Commission ruled that an Orange Order parade at Drumcree can go ahead this weekend.
He said it was a matter that had been “independently determined”.

My name is David Courell.
I'm on €280,000 a year and I don't give a flying one about genocide.

Micheál Martin was grandstanding in New York yesterday, talking about how the world has failed the people of Palestine and Gaza and when the full extent of what has been done in Gaza is known it will shame the world.
Today he is silent.

A significant majority of the Irish public want to #stopthegame but the FAI and the Government just ignore that.
FAI CEO David Courell says a vote took place among the Republic of Ireland squad on whether to fulfil the Nations League fixture against Israel, and a "significant majority" of the players voted to play the game. #RTEsoccer

David Courell has got to go.
He has exposed the Irish team.

In case you thought the FAI couldn't make matters worse, Hallgrimson apologised for calling it genocide and the team will wear black armbands 'for all lives lost in the conflict'.
These people are beyond redemption.

Few organisations have a history of failure as long as the FAI, but this is their biggest failure of all.
