N Ireland players brawl on plane

Two Northern Ireland players exchanged blows on an airplane before it flew the team from Iceland to London following Wednesday's Euro 2008 qualifier defeat. Other players were forced to break up the brawl on an Icelandair flight to Heathrow on Thursday morning. Cabin crew staff reported the incident to N Ireland manager Nigel Worthington before the flight took off.

The IFA has released a statement saying that it will investigate the matter and take appropiate action. Northern Ireland's hopes of making the Euro 2008 finals are fading after Keith Gillespie's late own goal gave Iceland a 2-1 victory in Group F.



f*** sake, Americanisms are creeping in everywhere - a surefire sign of lazy, ignorant illiterate reporting. The word, for people who know and understand plain English, is 'aeroplane'.
