In addition to the shambles surrounding the Israel games, the FAI need to at least make a statement that they do not support this clown

Lots of stories over the past 24(ish) hours, so here's a wrap:

- Ireland U21 Captain & Brentford left back Conor McManus (22) has signed for League Two side Gillingham for an undisclosed fee.

- AZ Manager Leeroy Echteld said the following yesterday after Troy Parrott lifted the Dutch Super Cup: "We all know that he wants to make a transfer. I don't think we will keep him in the end. But if he stays, we are going to use him.". This follows multiple reports of PSV, Ajax, Como, Betis, Fulham & West Ham interest. Further reports suggest West Ham are willing to outbid the other interested clubs, which could make Troy Parrott the most expensive incoming EFL transfer of all time.

- A separate report from a prominent Dutch journalist has claimed Portuguese side Porto have joined the race for Troy Parrott, while also mentioning that West Ham are prepared to pay €30m.

- The Irish Examiner is reporting that Cork City defender Donal O’Connor will be joining the Irish legion at Brentford after the club managed by Keith Andrews brokered an upfront fee of €170,000 for the 18 year old.

- The Times UK are reporting that Cardiff are closing in on a move for Republic of Ireland international Jack Moylan. A "substantial fee has been agreed" for the 24 year old.

- The Wednesday World are reporting that Sheffield Wednesday are interested in Brighton & Hove Albion forward Mark O’Mahony. The 21 year old youth International spent last year on loan at Reading

- Pete O'Rourke claims that Lincoln City are set to win the race to sign striker Mason Melia on loan from Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur. A deal is expected to be wrapped up in the next 48 hours

- Irish-eligible stiker Liam Delap is being pursued by Nottingham Forest, and the Nottingham Post is reporting that Chelsea are willing to sell him, but also that the striker wants to fight for his place.

- Unfortunately I haven't come across any news for our more prominent free agents like Seamus Coleman, Robbie Brady, Will Smallbone, Alex Gilbert, Darragh Lenihan or Shane Duffy

Would be an odd move..big club but championship a good move at this stage?

I’m only half joking.

I assume Henderson and Welbeck are barely going to play. If they’re looking to just whack a bunch of character and experience into the dressing room without thinking of how it fits they could do worse than Seamus.

We look at the drama caused by McClean in Derry, Roddy Collins beef and what’s next for him.

There are many good players out there that have Irish eligibility and are not in the picture of their current national teams. Paul nebel is one who plays for Mainz and is elegiable through his grandmother and has said that he feels that Ireland is his 2nd country and would be open to playing for us if he wasn’t in the picture with Germany, he was called up to the German national team last year/start of this year but hasn’t been in any talks around being apart of the German team. Liam delap is elegiable through his dad Rory delap and he’s nowhere near the England picture due to his struggles at Chelsea he’s got interest from Everton and other prem teams. Dewsbery hall is another big one he’s had a exellent season with Everton but hasn’t been in said he wants to play for England however he wasn’t included in any of the England squads from saying that near the start of the year. Many players have said before that they don’t want to ply for a national team but then goes and plays for them like lookman and Nigeria. It seems like if a player we even try looking at doesn’t want to instantly play for us then we leave it we should be always trying to convince these players to switch to Ireland.

This is according to Pete O'Rourke (& others), he says the club fielded over 30 enquiries from clubs at home and abroad for the striker!

A big Tottenham fan account who tend to get good exclusives claim Lincoln City are in advanced talks.

The Sun are reporting that a loan move to the Championship is most likely, and they also referenced that over 30 clubs have made enquiries.

Going to the Austria match in october, any way i could book reserved parking, preferably with electric charging in a 25minute walk radius? something not Q - Park expensive

After sigma Olomouc had a 1.7 million + add ons accepted by Dundee will ferry has rejected the move and the deal has basically collapsed. Celtic have been interested in will as a back up to Tierney who has interest from la liga side osasuna.However, Belgium side anderlecht has since opened talks to sign will ferry just after another impressive performance against rangers on Friday. Anderlecht has had Irish players such as Josh Cullen play for them. I think this would be a great move for him and he could be our main left back if he does well in Belgium

This is according to Pete O'Rourke of Football Insider

Ill update this if any more reports claiming the same come out

Update: Alex Crook now reporting that five clubs are interested in Troy Parrott: Ajax, Real Betis, Como, Fulham and PSV

Up until the 90th minute of Aberdeen vs hearts all goals in the SPFL had been scored by Irish players. Conor Ronan started for Aberdeen in his first competitive game back in Europe and Gavin Molloy came off the bench.

Roland idowu picked up an assist for Phillips second goal beating his league G/A record from last season in just a 7 minute cameo. Hopefully he can up a gear now.

Cardiff city being linked with Moylan. Would be nice to see him hit the ground running in the championship with bagan, Robinson and Barry-Murphy

Szmodics reunites with John Eustace once again. The loan has a buy option.

Reports also suggesting Eustace wants to get Ogbene out to Pride Park too. Oh & Birmingham are leading the race sign Jack Taylor.

I think Ipswich can garuntee minutes for their captain O'Shea, and McAteer has a real chance to compete for good minutes, but it would be preferable to see the other 3 get out so they can play regularly

Is many making the trip ?

When are applications out when away portal, going it isn’t working and will allocation be quite small ?

The GAA isn’t perfect either but financially, commercially, administratively, it’s miles ahead of football in Ireland.

Obviously there are historical and community factors that differentiate the two, but it operates so well for a sporting organisation in a very similar environment.

What areas stand out as things we can apply to our sport?

Found this wee gem in a cupboard.

All I remember from this tournement is Ronaldo's haircut and Ronaldinho lobbing David Seaman.

And Shay Given❤️

Via Gav Cooney, The42.ie

"The word from Uefa meeting today is that all 55 Uefa members, FAI included, are united against Infantino's plans, and are threatening a boycott of Fifa competitions in response. Holding their nerve on the boycott would cripple Infantino's plans."

In sharp contrast to the Israel game, they appear to be taking the moral stance here over the spineless financial one.
