    I'm pretty sure you can't hold an international football match with a few hours notice. They haven't done any of the stuff. I don't know what the "stuff" is exactly (policing & stewarding come to mind), but I'm sure there's a lot of it and none of it has been done at the Aviva for this game.

    Play it at AVIVA Lansdowne? Nah! Why would anyone want to play a game in a stadium that looks like a giant glass bedpan?

    They should play it in Stockholm. Lovely new stadium there with strange even-looking stands and even a retractable roof over the pitch to keep the snow out.

    No way their "fans" would want to sit on green seats.

    The Aviva is quite an amazing stadium too. Top facilities and utilises as much natural light as possible which for residents around the ground must be great

    In fairness their team wears a green jersey. Surprised they didn't go back to the blue they used wear prior to the partition of the island though. I think the green must represent merely being from the emerald isle to them as opposed to Republicanism and Catholicism
