No blaze, no flames, there wasn’t so much as a spark of Will Grigg on Sunday afternoon.
In case you hadn’t heard, Will Grigg is on fire… and your defence, whoever they may be, is terrified.
One defence that wasn’t terrified was that of Poland as Lukasz Piszczek, Kamil Glik, Michal Pazdan and Artur Jędrzejczyk weren’t in the least bit frightened due to the fact that Grigg remained on the bench for the Group C opener against Northern Ireland.
The Wigan striker, whose name has slipped in perfectly to the 1990s Gala hit ‘Freed from Desire’ in an adaptation that is sweeping through France, was not called upon by Michael O’Neill despite the fact that his side was chasing a goal late on.
Grigg sat, smouldering, on the bench and Poland won 1-0. And Northern Ireland fans were absolutely furious.
Northern Ireland thought they could get a result without playing Will Grigg???? Madness #EURO2016

Fuck off Northern Ireland. If you're not bringing Will Grigg on then I'm not interested.

No Will Grigg? Well the Northern Ireland manager has catapulted himself to the top of my fuck you list, along Cher and H from Steps cousin.
