FAI Academy Manager Will Clarke gave his annual update today. Once again left with the feeling that if you think things are bad now, you ain’t seen nothing yet! Number of 17/18 year olds in full time football down around 80% since Brexit.

We needed kids to go away at 16 The state of international football will be bleak for years to come if there’s no funding provided Clubs doing an amazing job but it’s not enough
United Kingdom Extension 💙 We are releasing our fifth stage of Soccer Bot™ Universal+. We now offer 40 leagues (22 new) from the United Kingdom. Try it out today.
I like Will Clarke. He's a straight talker who wants the best for Irish football.
The FAI and this State's approach to football is a joke.
Will government listen?
U17 level seemed to matter a lot when Ireland lost 5-1 to Poland in 2023 thought right? That theory only lasted 1 week though when Ireland qualified for the QF's of that tournament ;)
This ain’t an FAI problem. I coach kids and can see the issue with years. When we were kids, we played soccer before school, lunch break , in the evening until it got dark , cycled to gaa and soccer, kids these days driven everywhere (despite all these cycle lanes) and don’t play
Why mention Brexit ? Anyone from the ROI has had rights to live and work in the UK since 1920 - well over 100 years & predating the EU by 50 years. Possibly UK clubs have looked more to Rest Of The World players but the Irish ability to go there remains untouched by Brexit.
Except for all the elite countries are making the semi's, finals and/or winning it these under age tournaments and the same ones are doing it at senior level. If you're never involved in these competitions you have no chance of senior success. So the kinda of is a correlation.
Funding is only part of the issue here. What has the FAI and their Academy done in the last 5 years to improve player participation in underage teams.
To move forward as a football nation on an international stage... we deffo need €€€€s ringfenced from government.. but then again, that would be a benefit for the country ... not very likely
Was there ever a concrete fai plan for the brexit situation ?
what going to happen next year when Soccer season starts same time as the GAA... Academy or not kids will have to decide over which game.

Imagine admitting on the internet that you are a H and you are not faithful you actually date multiple men at once, and for your defense you site the western culture that people are already doing it. Yet everyone knows the western culture is so despicable that they see nothing wrong with pedophilia. That why our ancestors used to question the value of education if a person left home thinking properly and after education like this poor sister you now think like a dog which see nothing wrong with having sex with multiple dogs in public
