WITH everyone already thinking about the wonderful things which an east European summer might have in store, it’s the question that almost dares not speak its name.

Not because it’s taboo but because it’s virtually unthinkable. But, what the hell, we’ll ask Richard Dunne anyway: what if Estonia threaten to rain on the Irish parade tonight? What if, let’s say, they get an early goal and then another just before the break?

Richard Dunne doesn’t guffaw or even raise an eyebrow, let alone a smile.
