The exact status of these four internationals played in 1924 is unclear. The 1924 FAI annual report, regarded them as full internationals, despite featuring entirely amateur teams. [1] In June 1999 both FIFA and the IFFHS also declared that between 1908 and 1956 every game at the Olympic football tournaments was a full international. [2] According to Rsssf, all four opponents that the Irish Free State played also regard these games as full internationals. [3] [4] [5] [6] However they are not included by Rsssf in the Republic of Ireland’s list of full internationals.[7]
