But he suggested that the FAA are happy to let people like this is his words, but they're happy to let players
Go through the Northern Ireland system because when they want them, they can get them anyway.
And in effect, what he's saying is that that would save them thousands, basically.
Like if you just didn't take a player for four or five years, stop bringing them down, save your headache on logistics.
They would say they have a better coaching structure up there, so the FBI benefit from that.
I I don't know what the difference is.
But what happens then is that a Kay Doc O'Neal or Darren Gibson
James McLean, it comes down to it then and it's like should the FAE
Should should they be classy and leave them be?
Or should that player turn his back on Northern Ireland now?
And he should never be in that position because James O'Neill, like every dog in the street, knew James O'Neill was Irish.
So Northern Ireland are essentially running the same risk that we did with Jack Wheelish.
So Jack Wheelish has an affinity for Ireland.
James McLean would have played Northern Ireland schools, went on the underrated team, so he would have had a bit of an affinity with those teams as well.
But they knew he was Irish.
James knew he was Irish.
We knew Jack Wheelish was English.
So you're taking that risk if England call, he's gonna go.
And Northern Ireland were taking that risk if Ireland call, he's gonna go, and then you lose out.
And the annoying thing is, is that every time this happens, is that it's I'm wondering why the FAI have left it to go this long.
