I was thinking let him go as the chance came about, for very the same reasons as you have outlined. Obviously in the heat of the match a footballer will find it difficult to think through the variables, so lunging in tend to be the order of the day.
Nice to see Morgan straight over to pick Shane Long up at the end and give him a hug. Hard luck Ireland.
The media will not help, but I imagine people will be looking to cause trouble. Saying all that, Roys master plan is to get knocked out by Iceland anyway.......
LOL . Hope so , but yes , all sides have the Idiots , you just KNOW what way the media will go now ........
Shame, but it was a tough one for Ireland. Don't see why the France game will be any worse than it was before (if we get past Iceland)....the French have never liked us. There is a saying that you can be judged by your enemies....we should be proud the French don't like us.
