It's a lot further than any other football association has gone against Israel.
You can correct me if I'm wrong on that one, Gav, but it's far from a boycott, but it feels like a significant moment all the same.
Speaking of being uncomfortable for people, does it ease any of the burden on the players?
You mentioned Seamus Coleman.
I was interested to hear you say that you feel that that carried such weight that it may well have factored into the FAI's thinking on this.
Hamer Halgrimson obviously spoke very strongly, not so much this time around, but previously about his thoughts on the fact that Israel, he says, shouldn't be involved, but...
shouldn't be treated any differently to Russia but that they will fulfill the fixture obviously John O'Shea is the latest one he says that he basically backed up what Seamus Coleman said he says you don't lose any sporting advantages after the Canada game but we totally understand the nation's feelings for us to be involved in this scenario it's not right hopefully the authorities and the government UEFA can resolve it for us so it looks as though there's gonna be a big development here over the next few days but it hasn't been resolved for the players or management in any means really has it
And I understand that point that in some ways it's the worst case scenario because you don't have the opportunity, there is no opportunity to go inside the stadium as some people might have done, outside the stadium as some people might have done.
Although I will say, Gab, I don't think if this game goes ahead in a neutral venue that on that night Dublin will be silent.
Do you know what I mean?
I think people will still gather probably outside the stadium or various other places and there'll be a massive, massive protest there.
So even though the game isn't going to be on in the Aviva Stadium, I don't think it fully takes away people, the likelihood of a massive protest.
Massive game for the Irish women's team on Tuesday night, tomorrow night.
You're reporting on it for Chex Notes.
The Irish Times, it says here, Gavin.
This is going to take a little bit of getting used to.
Yeah, there's a lot of Patreon posts and stuff.
Yeah, completely.
Yeah, well, congratulations on all of your personal and professional advancements there.
But what about... So it was an incredible game on Friday night in the pissings of rain in Cork.
