Republic of Ireland thread
First topic message reminder :
So this week sees the start of the euro qualifiers.
We start with an away game to Georgia.
Will be very tough for us to qualify.
If we can get 6 points, which will be the target from our first 2 games( Gibraltar h after Georgia). will be good.
Then we have world champions Germany a, can write them off as 2 defeats.
Scotland will be interesting to play, they have picked up a bit.
Poland will be tricky.
Hate to say it, but cant see us making it, but one thing is for sure we will give it a hell of a go.
Also with the great Irish support behind the boys, we may surprise a few.
So C'MON YOU BOYS IN GREEN.

Unbelievable match, the Germans had all the chances but we just needed one, cracking finish by Long, Walters is becoming a favorite of mine he works his balls off but the whole team were heroes lastnight

Great team performance we have really have improved as the group has gone on, Walters is brilliant he never lets the side down the guy runs himself into the ground, the crowd in the aviva was something else too, would be magical if we could qualify automatically on Sunday after we thought a play off was our best hope

It's no coincidence that on the day Blatter gets stripped of his power, Ireland start winning big again! That lad has been holding us back for years (France )

Frak O'Shea, Walters. Stupid.
Play offs it is.
Still confident we can make it.
Not over yet.
Disappointing all the same.

Some silly mistakes.
Gonna be tough in play offs.

Would have taken that a few games ago.

Terrible game all round really
O'Shea was muck all match lucky not to give a peno or two away climbing all over that Poopie hawk Lewandowski (Who should have been booked a few times the diving pr1ck) but to the play offs we go, when is the draw?

Re: Republic of Ireland thread
Draw is sunday i believe.
Dont think we are any worse, certainly not much worse than the teams that will be in the play offs.
Our never say die attitude will certainly be a factor.
Will be tough as i said, but have to be at least fairly confident.

Out of the 4 possible teams, Hungary would have to be the best we would want and probably Bosnia, Sweden and Ukraine are defiantly the toughest and we will more than likely get one of those

As an Englishman I will be cheering ROI on in the playoffs, lots of Irish friends, and the Irish will show France how to party.

Tough test.
Think Long is out for for both legs.
Walters misses first leg, O Shea out.

So with all the injuries and suspensions, what are our hopes in qualifying, we really need at least a draw on Friday with any hope

Re: Republic of Ireland thread
I see Lufthansa have cancelled all flights to Germany(where some irish fans, brother and some mates, were going, where they were flying onto Bosnia).
Bad stuff.
Onto the match, think draw maybe best possibility tomorrow.

Re: Republic of Ireland thread
Shame we couldn't hold on.
Least we got the away goal, needed that.
Clean sheet and we are through.
Hopefully Longy back for monday.
Confident we can qualify.

Re: Republic of Ireland thread
Caught in two moods.
Yeah, it would be nice to get through ....but.... do the team ever play anything close to being good enough to compete in France? It's not good enough to just turn up for a party. You have to have a certain ambition to do something. Right now, it's so much defending game by game that it's painful to watch.
If we made it to France I'd hope we have more to offer than pain and constant nail biting.

I hope we make it.
If we can Keep players fit, We may well give teams a go.
We have a never say die attitude, which we have shown this campaign.
We don't have a great squad, but with the right attitude, we can be tough to break down.
Looking forward to mondays game.
Hopefully we can do it.

Yes Steffan us England fans think we'll win Euro 2016, then we kick off and then reality hits us and we realise like most major tournaments we play in that we just ain't that good, but the beer still goes down well.Steffan wrote:Well England are going to win Euro 2016 anyway so we are all there just to make up the numbers...

Never a penalty in a million years. Do love the fact that both the Irish commentators thought it was a stonewaller. No bias there then? I wonder what they'd have said if it had been the other way?

Well considering you spent months complaining over a handball it's kinda ironic that you won't about this one since in your favour

? Okay. We'll agree to complain about the handball that wasn't if Blatter finally gives us the replay for the Hand of Henry.
Blatter??? Blatter, are you there? He's not answering the phone, basterde!
