Misadventures in the Eurozone

One small problem with Uefa’s vision for Euro 2020 – it lacks 20-20 vision.

In focusing on the big picture, Michel Platini has lost sight of the small but vitally important detail.

The FAI were coy this week about over-playing their hand in response to the news that the tournament in eight years time will be spread across the continent. But with the impressive facility of the Aviva Stadium at their disposal, the association clearly has grounds for feeling quietly confident that Ireland will get a slice of the action.
