What is it about Ireland? We seem doomed before we begin.
On Saturday our soccer team played in Dublin.
The pitch was in a shocking state. This on a brand new stadium. That same evening the Germans played in perfect conditions in a stadium near Mainz. It was like a carpet and Dublin was a dump. And not a word from the well paid FAI officials.
Who allowed that happen on Saturday in Lansdowne Road. Sorry we are not allowed call it that name.
A land of leprechauns.
