Ireland have finalised their squad numbers for Euro 2016 and there are only four changes to the 23-man list.
After Tuesday night's 2-1 friendly defeat to Belarus, Martin O'Neill announced the Irish selection travelling with him and Roy Keane to France.
There were some notable absences though and the final cut was met with the almost inevitable hysteria from Irish fans.

David Forde was the odd goalkeeper in four to miss out on a plane ticket but his classy reaction after hearing the heartbreaking news really spoke volumes about him. That's a man who started as the first-choice goalkeeper at the beginning of the campaign.
As it is, Keiren Westwood got his spot and he takes David Forde's number one jersey. Shay Given and Darren Randolph keep their numbers of 16 and 23 respectively.
Ciaran Clark moves from number 24 to 3.
Jeff Hendrick goes from his usual number 21 (despite wearing 27 on Tuesday night) to occupy the 13 that Daryl Murphy once wore - the striker is now number 21.
Left back Robbie Brady keeps the number 19 jersey, Shane Long is still 9 and Super Jonny Walters is still wearing the number 14 kit.
