    Would the team play in Dublin or Belfast?

    Belfast as the FAI are just a breakaway from the IFA.

    Look at countries such as Spain, Italy or Germany etc. they just rotate between their biggest stadiums

    Even the FAI has played an international game in Limerick before, if I recall

    Don't understand the drive to amalgamate with a group of people a lot of whom in my experience don't really like us, some of them who absolutely hate us.

    Who really benefits from the situation? With the change in ruling, anyone from the 6 counties who considers themselves Irish can play for Ireland and anyone who considers themselves British or from Northern Ireland as an individual entity has the option of involving themselves with the Northern Ireland setup.

    Who is losing out in the current situation that would benefit from the change?

    why would be merge?! a blip because they got a joke of a qualifying group and will probably qualify? lets see where they are when we get to the next qualification campaign for W.C 2018, when it will be back to the usual of only top place in group guarantees qualification...

    Did O'Neill say something though that he wouldn't go after any Northern born player? Bit worrying if he did. There's a few players we could certainly add to our talent pool.
