We Need To Talk About Northern Ireland's Awful Squad Reveal

The hype around Will Grigg has ignited - (I'm not going to say it). The chant was going to be sung from UK fans up and down France next month - but now at least the man will be in the tournament.

Northern Ireland boss Michael O'Neill announced his 23-man squad after watching his charges beat Belarus. Grigg was the biggest winner, after scoring his first international goal in the game.

There were some shocks in the squad. Michael Smith, Billy McKay, Daniel Lafferty, Liam Boyce, and Ben Reeves have all been left out.

But the real story is all about how they chose to reveal their squad on twitter. Instead of the helpful list that most people want and need - it's a five minute long video. Really? I'm sure there's a meme for what I'm feeling right now. 

I'm hoping this sort of thing doesn't catch on. Kill it, kill it now.
