Our columnist reflects on a memorable start to Ireland’s hectic end-of-season finale.

Longy joins the Irish roll of honour

It’s been a good week for Irish football — we gave a very good account of ourselves against England at Wembley, and the sight of Richard Dunne out on the training pitch with the lads for the first time since the Euros was a huge bonus.

It’s been a very tough year for Richard. He is an absolute colossus for us and has played through the pain barrier countless times over the years, but this injury has proved to be a very frustrating one. I sincerely hope that, for both his and the team’s sake, he keeps progressing well because we need him. And it would be lovely if, as has been mentioned in the build-up, he gets to make his long-awaited comeback in tomorrow’s game against Georgia.
