    Hi,

    Just wondering what you all think of the NI soccer teams recent results? Firstly lets be honest - they have a crap team (I know, I know - who are we to talk!) but really they do, far worse on paper then our team. So why have they done what we have not done - win vital games? Its a bizarre one I have to admit but now we may face the humiliation of being knocked out of Euro 2008 whilst they go through (its possible!)...........Or will reality kick in soon enough for them? Surely their results are too good to be true and a harsh let down looms? My question is what are they doing right that the ROI are doing wrong?

    They have a manager full stop, not a Walsall reserve team coach who can't believe his luck.

    There was talk of Rangers bein interested in Healy :(
    Hoping that if it comes down to a offer being made that he doesn't take it. Look what happened to Lennon when he went to Celtic :( But then if he did & doesnt get the abuse like Lennon did ....... what does that say about the NI Fans.

    Laurie Sanchez (is it spelt right??) Could be on his way to Fulham if results go well for him. Has pulled off some big results like and couldnt see many others that would actually take the NI job pull them off like. But then maybe it's the players passion possibly :p

    Because they have an ex - Rovers manager in charge:)

    But also because they play with belief and a game plan , handy things to have.
