IRISH FOOTBALL FANS ARE finally on the road to France this week ahead of the Euros, with Ireland playing their first match against Sweden on Monday.

But the actual competition is not on the pitch, would you believe. It’s on the fans’ flags. Here are 12 of the best we’ve seen so far.

1. This classic Eamon Dunphy quip
