I think everybody will agree - I meant to say this earlier - that I have huge admiration for the manner in which the IABA has maintained unity in boxing on this island and particularly how it has managed time and again to cross the sectarian divide in the North. I only wish the soccer authorities would take a leaf out of its book. It has done a tremendous service for the country in that regard.
