Even more cowardly from the FAI than @Cheasty foresaw. They will always be the Midgets Of Merrion Square.
The Republic of Ireland’s home UEFA Nations League fixture with Israel is likely to be moved to a neutral venue, RTÉ Sport understands.
The match, scheduled for 4 October, will switch from Aviva Stadium to a neutral ground - pending UEFA approval - with a venue in Hungary considered a likely alternative.
The FAI board of directors held a meeting last Friday to discuss the matches, with particular focus on the game at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium on 4 October. A second meeting was held this afternoon where a decision was reached.
The FAI will now ask UEFA to approve such a move.
