Meetings (2 metres should be easy here)
Dining (similarly 2 metres should be easy here)
Rooming (was told that players have all been given individual rooms, so shouldn’t be an issue)
If a physio session or massage takes longer than 15 minutes, you could be in trouble I guess. But I guess they could break them up to meet the requirements...
Dressing rooms - no idea what they’re doing there, maybe they can space people out. Maybe if the players are moving about enough then, they’re not in breach...
I reckon it's not bad for someone speaking in their second language. I dare say it's damn sight better English than most of the users on here could manage in Spanish, or even more shamefully, in Irish (including me).Quote:

it is my mother tongue, and youve got to place your spanish expressions of football into english expressions of the beautiful game, here we are missing the point, this isnt about my lazy and messy writting in english, it is about the greek ref and the wrongly sending off of McClean.Quote:

"The player - who did not feature against either Slovakia or Wales - will now undergo a THIRD test ahead of Tuesday morning’s flight in the hope that he can be allowed travel."
That narrows it down to the 2 sub keepers and the top midfielder from the greatest league in the world.
He's living a lonely existence so. Because the others from Williams were all from just being around the hotel.
The only reason I can go along with for Jack B being included in this squad is that he will start the game and Kenny will adjust the side. Otherwise there's a case for Jack saying thanks but no thanks, i.e. from a footballing point of view, but maybe the match fee is decent considering he's on LOI wages.
You think Jack Byrne is in a position to say no to his country and return to Shamrock Rovers because he's not picked? Are you joking?
Would Shamrock Rovers bust his nuts for that ?Quote:

It goes to show the testing quality is not really where it needs to be. At my workplace in Canada there seems to be a recognition of this. If you have any need to have a COVID test due to symptoms, you have to work from home for two weeks, regardless of a positive or negative result.
I love watching Ireland play and would never advocate for a pause on international football but given the extensive cross border travel and flying in tight quarters required I wonder if pressure will rise to wait until a vaccine/treatment or at least more reliable testing is developed.
