They're at a perfect age where, you know, they can kick this on.

And the one thing that I will, you know...

that will stick out to me from this last couple of days, this last week or so, is stick with us.

Troy Parrott said stick with us and he's obviously came to be this bona fide superstar.

He's also a leader of this team and I think the Irish public can stick with this team and they will, majority.

And the ones who won't, well, good riddance to them because this is going to be

you know, a train that you're going to hop on right from the very start.

And I know our job is to hold these people to account and to be critical and to be journalists and stuff.

But, you know, we are also fans and the passion for Irish football is, yeah, it's kind of only ever growing more and more.

We are a football nation.

We are a football country.

And that's something I've learned over the last week that we can and we will be part of these major tournaments to come.

Did you ever cry?

No.

I actually felt like crying on Friday.

I actually thought I needed to go home and cry.

I never came out though.

I'll tell you, right?

I'm living for that yeah there's no better way to kind of end it on that just to remind you the green scene in off the ball is with Cadbury's a proud sponsor of the Republic of Ireland football teams just before we go I want to thank everybody who came up to us in Prague a lot of people that are kind of fans of this podcast fans of off the ball in general and want to get involved

all the fans we chatted to in the Vox Pops, all the people that we met in pubs and bars all around the place.
