Irish troops to be deployed to participate in an Israeli instigated Lebanese civil war. We’ll have officially gone from peacekeepers to peace enforcers. But people worried about the removal of the triple lock are overreacting…

Big night tonight in the league of Ireland. The two biggest rival at the top of the table. Shamrock Rovers can't slip up, nor can Bohs. It may not have the glitz and glamour of other leagues, but it certainly has the excitement and jeopardy #shamrockrovers #leagueofireland

It's exactly 1,096 days since I last supped on an alcohol based beverage. No I don't have any addiction issues, nor was a bad drunk, I just didn't want to be hungover on the weekends so I can do things with the kids.

My son has qualified for two football finals in two days at two separate age levels. I couldn't be more proud of him if I tried. Not because of him making the finals, but the commitment and effort he's put in to help his teams get to the finals.

A lot of us knew it was coming, but we all hoped he'd have one more chance to play. Rory Gaffney was a fantastic player for Rovers, not only a club hero, but a league of Ireland legend. Hopefully we see him involved in football in some way in the future. Enjoy retirement #rorygaffney #shamrockrovers

Today the Government will have an emergency Dáil sitting over fuel excise duty. Later today the latest homelessness figures will be announced. A new record, no doubt, with over 7k children in emergency accommodation. But there’ll be no emergency sitting for them.

All 55 UEFA nations have unanimously agreed to boycott FIFA competitions if plans to sell stakes in the World Cup to private investors move forward. European football is drawing a line in the sand: the World Cup belongs to the players and fans.

I was watching Shamrock Rovers last night and one thing the match 100% convinced me of is, var utterly kills games. 6 minutes sitting there waiting for them to make a decision. I hope it never comes into the League of Ireland

UEFA may support Belgium's protestations against the suspension of Balogun's ban. This feels like a key moment - not in this WC, but in Infantino's reign. The award of the Fifa Peace Prize to Trump was the pivotal moment, but Gianni didn't hear the trigger. He carried on. He'll regret it.

politico.comEuropean soccer leaders make plans to take Belgium's side against FIFAThe continental confederation UEFA, of which the Royal Belgian Football Association is a member, is considering whether to issue a statement challenging a FIFA decision to suspend a red card.

God that was boring. If he's going to call up the players he should at least give them a run. This is a nothing match and would have been a perfect opportunity to play the likes of Brennan and McGinity #irelandvsqatar
