    Two legends of Northern Ireland football have said the time may be right for an all-Ireland team.

    Pat Jennings and Martin O'Neill were speaking at an event in Dublin to mark the last time an all-Ireland football team took to the field.

    ...Aston Villa manager O'Neill told the Irish Examiner the political climate had changed and an all-Ireland team was now a "possibility".

    However, he added: "I don't know even at this stage if everyone would want it to happen.

    ...Jennings, who played a record 119 times for Northern Ireland, told the Daily Mail an all-Ireland team would have a better chance of qualifying and going further in competitions.

    "You would have a better squad. If you have one or two injuries in key positions, none of us, north or south, could cope with that at the moment," he said."

    BBC, Daily Mail and Irish Examiner are all quoting it? Sounds to good to be true, but its still up at 7pm...
    They were meeting to celebrate the anniversary of St. Pats All Ireland XI's match against Brazil....I'd say the story is true.

    It's not as if it's groundbreaking stuff though, it's just taking the opinion of two individuals.
