    Da Hamsta's Handle

    What is with the handle under Da Hamsta's name? Комите́т Госуда́рственной Безопа́сност is either Greek or Russian at a guess, being two prominent users of the Cyrillic script. Anybody able to throw light on this? It has been bothering me for almost 2 minutes now.

    The Greek script is similar, but it isn't Cyrillic. Cyrillic is used by Bulgarian, Serbian, Ukranian, Macedonian, Belarussian as well as Russian. Also used by non-slavic languages of the former USSR, but not Greek.

    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
