3-0.

We're through.

Nice to see your mate score yet another goal for his country

Down to ten men and the opposition have given up ?

It was a tap in too.

[Fabio]

Yeah. I believe you

It'll probably be 0-0 in Dublin on Tuesday.

 

[Ryan]

1 assist, 2 goals, gets two players sent off, 54 International goals.

Robbie Keane - making a fool out of Rosco since the internet began.

[/quote]It would.

Right now I would predict that we will not win a match and probably will not score either

You guys are always showing a lot of spirit and the hype and belief will be immense come Summer. You'll never know what'll happen.

But yeah I know we could face stronger opponents, just saying it could be an interesting encounter still.

Apart from when facing a few selected teams Denmark will be in pole position for the 3 points mate.

;D

 

[gene hughes]

Ireland v Denmark would end 0-0.

In fact, I would like to check the odds on all Ireland's games next summer ending 0-0.

 

[Rosco]

Hayden Mullins

 

[gene hughes]

Fuck, don't tell me he's Irish now too.

I expect there'll be loads of wankers emerging now, Jamie O'Hara etc.

You must've got an awesome defense then?

they've only conceded 1 in their last 10 .


Bit surprised you guys aren't more 'excited " about the potential of qualifying . Ok maybe the football is boring and defensive but you are talking about a team who has not made the last 4 major tournaments , if this style proves an end to a means then surely it can be justified .
And they normally do ok against the bigger teams , i'd say they'd hold their own . Maybe not get out of their group but you go to be realistic .

 

[gene hughes]

I think Trap is an amazing manager. I don't think an Irish manager has ever got to a major tournament with a weaker squad.

 

[the count]

Robbie Keane, just one goal from being joint all time European Qualifier goalscorer, and two from being there on his own.
Come on Robbie, a hat trick on Tuesday to make us proud.



:angel:

 

[spider-Neil]

*neil gazes into his crystal ball*

'ooommmm... ooooommm...'

Okay, I've looked into the future

england at the european championships

game one -
we take the lead, the other team equalises and then we hold on for dear life for a point

game two -
we are soundly beaten

game three -
we give a turgid performance but manage to win 1-0

we come second in the group meaning we play the winners of another group.

knock out phase -
we are utterly outplayed but the goal that sends us out of the competition is a controversial one.

please lock this post away and dig it out in 8 months to see how accurate my fortune telling is.

You forgot to mention Gareth Barry putting a penalty into Row Z during the shoot out, with sympathisers Pearce and Southgate in the studio.

I didn't see penalties in our future, marky 🙂

However I did see that rooney when recalled back to the team after suspension contributes a grand total of fuck all.

Yep! Though Ross will be 'Keane' to remind us that they were all against shit teams.

Even though they weren't.
