FIFA float idea

FIFA have an….unusual suggestion in the ongoing who can play for what team saga. The Newsletter don’t like it one bit (no link at 2:20). Neither do the blogging fans. As ever however, the most thoughtful and interesting comment comes from Beano, who suggests that the compromise would actually create two sectarianised Irish teams. Presumably he is also being making himself look “small minded” according to the the Irish News editorial this morning.
