This is part of an ongoing campaign that literally started from the moment that the National League matches against Israel were announced.

Already, we have leafed it at seven League of Ireland games.

We have leafed it at the Ireland versus North Macedonia game.

On top of that, we've been organising a very, very powerful email campaign to the FAI.

And our whole purpose in this, Brian, is to get these games cancelled because we think it's absolutely unconscionable that these games should go ahead.

However, the people who can't get this game cancelled are either the FAI or the Irish government.

And that's who the pressure has to go on.

To us, it's not only a moral obligation, but a political obligation.

when at the various demonstrations and leafleting, there's been a very strong response from the Irish soccer community, the Irish football community.

Oh, I have indeed, and I very much have a strong football background myself.

However, Brian, this is just a step too far.

I was involved many years ago as part of the Irish anti-parathite movement getting the rugby matches against South Africa cancelled.

This is a similar, in my mind, a similar crossing point.

These matches are allowed to go ahead.

It'll be a shame.

on the Irish soccer community.

Is there more protest planned?

Oh, yes.

Our idea is to have rolling protests between now, well, as you probably know, the first game, the away game is due at the end of September and the home game at the 4th of October.

And what we intend doing is building up the campaign over that time.
