The Republic of Ireland And I actually wasn't entirely sure that this game was on this weekend, or this week, caught me by surprise. Obviously on Thursday night we're taking on Qatar and we've loads to get through because it's actually turned out to be a pretty exciting day as far as news goes. We had updates obviously over the last couple of days about the squad for this game against Qatar and for our trip to Montreal in a couple of weeks time. We also had news of some new deals around the coaching ticket that looks set to be announced over the course of this international window. And outside of that too, we had some League of Ireland action last night with some players who of course are going to be involved over the next couple of games.
David Wilson 1:15
And we also had the FAI announce some new structures to how the underage set up and the coaching is going to be working as far as that is concerned over the next little while. There was also plenty of action over the course of the weekend as the EFL playoffs wrapped up and some good Irish success there. And as well as that, Brentford season came to an end. So Keith Andrews, we'll talk about that over the course of the next hour really. I am joined, as you can see on your screens, if you are watching, by David Wilson, as always. How are you, Dave?
Keith Andrews 1:42
All good, Matthew. How are you?
David Wilson 1:44
Yeah, all good, all good. Unfortunately, we're not joined by Ben Symes today, which is a shame. But he will be back. We can confirm he will be back. So all the best to Ben, wherever he's doing. I actually know what he's doing right now.
Keith Andrews 1:53
He's recovering. He's getting ready for a huge couple of days of... Ireland are training today. Probably just finished training the last hour or so. And then they are doing some media tomorrow. So Ben will hopefully be back involved. And he'll be out doing some groundbreaking, hard-hitting journalism. As he always does. As he always does.
David Wilson 2:12
I think there's only really one place to start here, David. Of course, I mentioned some. news about the coaching ticket and about some new deals coming our way and David Snade is reporting in 42 that over the course of this international window we're going to have a contract extensions for both John O'Shea and Paddy McCarthy so Hamer Hagrimson we know is going to be here until at least the end of Euro 2028 so you would have to imagine that these coaching deals these tickets these extensions for Paddy McCarthy and John O'Shea will run to that duration as well
Keith Andrews 2:41
Positive news? I think it's very positive news. And I think as well, Emeril Grimson kind of said in maybe the previous press conference that, you know, Paddy McCarthy, maybe it was back when we were getting ready for Prague, which was, Prague is two months ago tomorrow, or Thursday. Does it feel like it's two months ago? Does it feel like it was a longer duration or a shorter? It feels longer, to be honest, just because of the emotional... turmoil we were all in in the aftermath and it's still taking time to get over and it'll only take it'll only be harder to get over as well when you're watching Czechia in the World Cup against Mexico and South Korea and South Africa but yeah no back on to Paddy McCarthy and John O'Shea I think it is good news it is definitely good news the
Keith Andrews 3:29
The fact that Paddy McCarthy is such a highly rated coach by Oliver Glasner, who is obviously leaving Crystal Palace to have Rayo Vallecano in a Europa Conference League final on Wednesday night. Paddy McCarthy has been kind of pivotal and central to everything good about Crystal Palace over the last... couple of years and he stepped in a couple of times as well to the main coaching position as well and he seems to be really well liked by the players he's done great work with Glasner I suppose you might be thinking maybe Glasner whoever he goes to next we don't know there's rumours of clubs in Germany and clubs in the Netherlands as well Mighty Follow and maybe Follow which is a bit of a sorry I said Mighty Follow
