  • Well done lads, very enjoyable match. Watched this from London and very proud of all your work and that of the back room staff. Declan (Kidney) thank you for acknowledging the supporters there who have had to emigarte and the hardship for those at home who could not travel That means a lot to the Irish and the Irish emigrants everywhere, me included. Enjoy the rest of the matches and whatever the outcomes, win or lose, you all do Ireland proud always.
