FAI chief joins in the carnage

Looking at the human carnage in Sopot this morning, it’s no surprise Spain and Ireland are the basket cases of Europe.

It was bailouts of a different kind that were no doubt taking place after Irish and Spanish fans spent the wee hours learning each others’ chants, swapping wigs, and imbibing gut-busting amounts of Polish gatt.

It’s worth remembering that the only Irish arrests at the tournament turned out to be, not for rioting, but for public nudity.
