That's got nothing to do with the Wales game though?

Down to 13 players -- Jack Byrne probably still won't start.
Game should be called off. There's obviously been an outbreak in our squad. The risk of passing it on to the Welsh lads is obvious.
If I was a club manager I'd be on the phone ordering them back and to hell with FIFA and their international release rules. The clubs pay the wages at the end of the day.
that should have happened. So the players/adults on a flight should have sat where they were supposed to, the flight attendants should have asked them to sit where they were supposed to, but you started by saying that non playing member of fai on a flight is at fault for sitting where he was allocated?
There was still a one row break between. Might have been unintentional. Kenny said he was unaware cause he was at the front of the blame.
In fairness, if the back room staff were worried about being close contacts, then they may have all been sticking to their seats, keeping distance, etc etc.
So it’s one of:
Travers, Kelleher, Williams, K Long, Molumby, Byrne, Christie... Cullen already had it, so can’t be him
Randolph
Doherty
Duffy
A
Stevens
McCarthy (if fit) / B
Hourihane
Hendrick
Brady
McClean
S Long...
A - Williams was the first call up, so he might be first choice, unless he’s the Covid case.
B - McCarthy due to have a fitness test before the game. If he doesn’t pass, I imagine Molumby comes in and Hourihane moves deeper, unless he’s the Covid case. Then I guess it’s Cullen or Byrne
What's the best for a stream for this btw?
Ireland team to play Wales: Randolph, Doherty, Duffy, K. Long, Stevens, Hourihane, Hendrick, Molumby, McClean, S. Long, Brady.
Williams not on the bench so presumably he's the one who tested positive.
All 11 born on the island of Ireland if I'm not mistaken. Not that that matters, just a curiosity.
Could be significant in a way though. When did that last happen? I seem to remember a few years back that it hadn't happened since the late 70s.
Can't beat the - not only born in Ireland but also all (except one) were with LOI clubs -- v Austria 1971
The result is immaterial
A consistent lineup as much as possible(which is what I asked for ) but I want to see us use the speed we have with this team. McClean has speed. Use it. He's nothing else. Use our assets. Long has pace. Use it. We've an opportunity to set out an alternative plan to trying to carve out intricate passing moves and score from the 6 yard box. It hasn't worked this far so might as well have something else in the locker. Let's see how we go with an old school approach but with the passing and possession based football we've seen over the last 2 games. Generally happy assuming he uses our assets as I've outlined above.

If there’s an injury at centre half, is Christie the backup?

Sure it's ridiculous the lads are in each others faces in training. It's clearly redefining how the spread of the disease occurs

I don't understand this close contact crap any more. In the States the players on professional teams and College Football teams are all tested on a daily basis. If u test negative u play. They are all in close contact in training and match
