And that will be to take a vote for them not to fulfil this fixture.
So, you know, I'm not at this stage.
It's probably still very early doors.
I don't I'm not privy to the FEI's discussions, but I certainly think there's recognition at this stage that there's massive discomfort with this match proceeding in any way, shape or form.
It could have been a test in the waters to see, you know, how would it go if we opted to move it to a neutral venue?
It could have been a test in the waters to see how...
this evening's motions and tomorrow's motions go and what government's response may have been to them there could be a multitude of factors going in there only the FEI can answer that but sincerely from from my point of view and certainly from Sinn Féin's point of view we we don't want this match to proceed at all it's not about it being played in Hungary in Timbuktu in Dublin or anywhere we don't want these matches to go ahead at all and we don't believe they should okay
Deputy, there's one of two stories that I wanted to chat to you about today.
The Israel story is one.
The other is your involvement in Drogheda United, which people remember from earlier this year, from back in March when you were removed from your position as co-chairperson of Drogheda United.
I think it's worthwhile just doing a refresher on this entire story for people who've maybe forgotten about it three months on.
Why were you removed as co-chairperson of Drogheda United?
I can't answer that specifically.
That's potentially a question you would have to put to the board members and the owners of Droughty United.
You know, it's very easy for people sitting on the sidelines to say there was a conflict of interest.
You know, she should have stood down beforehand.
Potentially this was in the making in the background.
The issue of a conflict of interest did arise on a couple of occasions over the last 18 months.
to the point that I actually asked the owners of the club last summer to go and seek out independently themselves, was there a conflict of interest?
I asked them to speak to the governing bodies in Ireland, the international governing bodies, which they did, and came back and told me that they didn't believe there was a conflict of interest, and they were happy for me to continue in my role.
