In our current day and age you'd be excused for seeing Ireland as just another average european national team.
After all, you'd have be close to your 30s if you can say you witnessed their last presence in a world cup. Because, other than a decent round of 16 run in the 2016 Euros, Irish people simply haven't had many reasons to smile when it came to their national team.
That's really a shame because during the 90s, Ireland was actually quite good.
They made it all the way to the quarter finals in their world cup debut, with a squad of footballers playing for the biggest clubs in the newly formed Premier League, and continued their trend of success up until the early 2000s, but then, all of a sudden, Ireland came crashing down and they're still struggling to recover.
But what happened? What could have caused such a sudden collapse.
From handballs, to fights, to corrupt presidents, Irish football has seen it all and today I'm here to tell you all about it.
