Why beating Hibernians next week is so important for Shamrock Rovers. Beat Hibs and need to win one tie from three to make a group stage. Lose and need to win three ties in a row for a group stage.

Shamrock Rovers confirmed as champions. Unbeaten to date, have dropped just four points, have scored the most goals, conceded the fewest, and kept the most clean sheets. An 18-game season should be close-run thing, but Rovers were too good.

The last Ireland Under-17 squad to reach the last eight had just two players playing at home (a decent squad too with Collins, Knight, Idah, and Parrott).
Brexit means this squad has just two players not playing in Ireland. Politicians take note.

Ireland Under-21s playing the biggest game in their history on Tuesday v Italy. Fairly sure it will my first away 21s game since they used to play the night before the senior team 17 years ago. Ascoli is miles from everywhere and not easy to get to, but they make nice wine.
