Should we give up football?

Don't think there is much evidence for that. It's just the usual stuff Paul Murphy types come out with. 

Not that I have interest in greyhounds but the money does come back in in direct ways. Irish soccer is a black hole for money in comparison.

The League of Ireland needs a total overhaul but the will isn't there. I'm not sure LOI people even want to broaden and grow, given how often they attack every other sport and demographic under the sun.

I really don't think that's as big an issue as it's being made out. A lot of our players have physical limitations like you mention. Playing other sports aids that. It doesn't hinder it. There's a whole list of problems bigger than that which all fall under the "Football industry" term that's popular these days. 

Our facilities are sh*te. 99% of grassroots coaches are unpaid volunteers. I'd agree that kids don't play enough in the streets, but that should be offset by the amount of training they do at clubs, but it's hard to ask unpaid volunteers to do more than they are. Our underage calendar is a mess too, how many games get called off every weekend because of the weather at this time of year.

Also, why aren't there more futsal programmes available for kids. It's only when you go to or live in another country that you realise that we've a bizarre relationship with indoor sports in our country. Not just indoor football/futsal, but we should have a big culture of indoor sports, but bizarrely our sporting culture focuses on kids standing outside in sh*te conditions where they get minimal touches of a ball.

Kids should be playing on grass for the good months of the year and then moved indoor to play Futsal in the months where it's more likely that games will be cancelled. This can still be done as part of club teams, it's doesn't have to be a separate thing.

We've far more issues that could be sorted out internally by the organisation in charge getting their sh*t together than we do from players playing multiple sports.

Take a day off 

Try and enjoy the World Cup and not worry about our issues, thankfully we don’t play for another 4 months.

Also, I have never been wrong on anything I have ever posted on this forum. 

What age are you, 12? Wether a Kenny fan or not, this childish point scoring spamming on every thread is tiring.

It's more that a lot of people simply dislike accepting that they were wrong about Kenny.
