Former Athlone Town goalkeeper says domestic rivalries should be set aside for the sake of European success.
Former Athlone Town Goalkeeper Scott Gaynor believes Ireland's European eligible teams have earned the right to a three week head start.
The FAI is planning to re-start the domestic campaign with a four-team mini tournament involving Dundalk, Shamrock Rovers, Bohemians and Derry City.
This would allow them to start collective training on June 8th, with all other teams not scheduled to return until June 29th.
Gaynor says domestic rivalries should be set aside this year for the sake of success in Europe:
