The ZX Spectrum is a definite upgrade on the ZX81, you techno junky
It's seeded so one one of Denmark, Italy, Croatia and Switzerland/Portugal as far as I know. Not an easy game there but Denmark or Switzerland probably the most beatable
I never realised you were a dickhead
Sensational result by the way.
All of McLeans goals have come away from home in big games. He's the opposite of Gini.
I'd love to get Italy

That's suicide.. You would be out. Without a doubt..
sensational?
I wouldn't go that far , They edged out the Welsh in a shite game of football. Theres absolutely nothing, quality wise between the two sides when Bale isnt playing.
Let's not play the dickhead card. Every club failing is funny to someone
The handball thing was particularly dramatically overblown by the Irish FA however
The FAI acted like dickheads and indeed continue to do so, however there is no escaping the fact that we were cheated out of a world cup place by the sweeter than sweet Thierry Henry. It was very difficult to take at the time.
All winning goals too.
I realise it's six of one and 5 of the other, but is there a person, anywhere, that spouts more cliches than Chris Coleman?
Not sure why I'm being quoted here. I was just saying fuck you to Wales cos fuck Wales
How am I being a dickhead?
Just the revelry in a crying kid.
Same as redninja was called one for laughing at the Ireland thing the other year
A demo that everyone revels in the misfortune of other teams, no need to get personal about it
Prob should have put quotes around the "dickhead"
They're a good playing side, but without their two playmakers - Allen and Bale - it was hard. They'll be back
I wonder if they said that after the last time they appeared at a World Cup
60 years ago
Actually maybe not, given that's the only one they've ever played in
Am going on the assumption they'll have Bale next time around. Fair point though.
What happened the last time we played Italy?
Completely disagree, I think it was a dickhead comment and I don't think it was overblown at all. It was Fucking atrocious, but fair enough I'll hold back from the dickhead line
No doubt Ireland are always the underdogs when playing Italy..
No doubt Ireland are unlikely to win, and we look foolish not minding playing them

'Fuck Wales' is about as impersonal as it gets.
Anyway, I always gave less than a fuck about Wales right up until they tried to instigate some laughable 'rivalry' with England at the last Euros. And I bet that kid had the time of his fucking life along with every other Welsh person when Iceland knocked us out. And rightly so. I don't blame them at all, I wouldn't have it any other way.
But now it's my turn. So fuck Wales.
