We've been here before.

Last week, unsuspecting staff at Cardiff airport feel for a very funny prank by Irish fans. https://twitter.com/noriordan/status/645325589457567744?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw Given the chances of three Irish fans, named after three famous historical figures, all travelling to the Rugby World Cup together are presumably pretty remote, we're going to assume staff fell for a clever joke from Irish fans. Well, it's happened again, but this time on a larger scale. Irish journalist Alan Smith tweeted this picture of the big screen outside Wembley Stadium ahead of today's clash between Ireland and Romania. As Scotland and the USA played at Elland Road, an announcement was made for Mr Padraig Pearse and Mr Michael Collins to report to Wembley's lost and found area.CP6kTaCXAAA719zThere's no sign of Eamon de Valera, so it's possible that he fell out with Collins again. Get it? giphyI'll see myself out.
