That's just how it's been where we have an acceptance.

And I'm not sure that's a thing that is seen regularly in other countries where before games, the assistant manager will be the one taking the press conference.

No, you don't.

And I'm still not sure if people are 100% on board with that either.

I mean, I personally would obviously like to hear from...

the man who we're led to believe is making the decisions.

But at the same time, Hamer-Hagramson comes from a history, I suppose, of working in a duo.

And I imagine he's leaned pretty heavily.

And he said this himself on John O'Shea and the likes of Paddy McCarthy as well when he first came in.

Funnily enough, despite the big gap that we had between our two permanent managers, our last two permanent managers, there wasn't that much of a turnaround from when Hamer-Halgrenson came in to when he actually had to take his first game.

So having someone there, as you mentioned, continuity like John O'Shea, who knows the players, which can work one of two ways, but I think we've seen over the course of the last...

eight months, let's say, that it's been a positive.

And I'm not surprised that the two deals have been signed, but there was little things there kind of suggesting that it might not be straightforward.

But the fact that it seems to be done, I think is only a good thing.

Yeah, that's true.

Very true.

Very well put.

We are going to have a game this Thursday and the team is probably not going to look all that familiar or have a sense of continuity.

It might look a little bit more familiar than the team we put out against Grenada over in Murcia a couple of weeks ago.

Last week on the green scene we did go through the Republic of Ireland squad that had been announced for these two games and it was a little bit odd because certain players were only available for the game against Qatar and certain players were only available for the game against Canada.
