So on the initial question as to whether the match should go ahead in Dublin, I don't think it should.

And I'm not in disagreement with things that have been said in terms of, you know, other conflicts that are taking place.

But two wrongs don't make a right or multiple wrongs don't make a right, I suppose, in this scenario in terms of whether it's Israel or...

or whether it's in relation to the Kurds, Sudan and so on.

The issue is that's a long list, which is a different problem in and of itself.

I think there's probably an affinity from the Irish people in terms of the Palestinian people.

And so that then brings this further up on the general public's awareness.

And so then that does have an influence in terms of our actions, political or otherwise.

But I think when we look to the likes of the Eurovision, for example, Ireland didn't take part in that.

Art, culture, sport, all of it can be a form of protest.

Again, back to your question that you put, I think, to Sarah around could you be accused of water boundary?

I think it comes back to that as well, doesn't it?

Like, you know...

All of these things combined can potentially make a difference.

And I do think we need to be looking at that collective action and trying to encourage broader collective action, which I think is absolutely reasonable.

Just the final point I would like to make on this is that I don't like the idea of this being left to players.

players and sports people and individuals who spend their life trying to train and trying to better themselves and so on in the pursuit of their sport or their field or whatever.

Institutions can make these decisions or a team made the decision when it came to the Eurovision.

The FAI could make this decision when it comes to the match.

Yeah.
