Eh, not really. Tho I guess if I had to share a bed/prison cell with a bloke he'd be top of the list

Peronally, any match vs. England would be infinitely more interesting.

Love them or hate them, they bring interest and hype to this tournament.
Who gives a **** if Ghana meet Argentina, or Brazil meet Chile etc etc.

When ever England are involved it generates the real interest.

We spend the year watching British soccer...

Maybe you do. English soccer is crap. I'd rather watch paint dry.

World Cup is better without them. We can settle down to watch the masters at work.

Germany were awesome and ripped up England in a thrilling way.

But anybody that thinks that being unfairly denied a legitimate goal (a goal that would have put England level within ten minutes of going two-nil down and all that that psychologically implies) when the Germans were on the ropes might not have affected the end result of the game - despite the emphatic end result - knows nothing about football or is a incorrigible ABE.

Time for change.

Thankfully a big gun was screwed over tonight so FIFA can't ignore it they way they ignored us.

P.S I love Argentina.

KeNako. It's a phrase that means friendship and unity I believe. You can see it on some of the stadiums.

BBC are still raving about the England game.


Would they focus on the task at hand - this match.


All that was in the past. As usual the hype up the team beforehand. You have Shearer and Hansen saying that they are champions and world beaters. Half time they feel sorry for themselves over the disallowed goal and now, after the crisis, they tear the team to shreds and tell us the team are crap.

Lost the remote?

Never watch ITV because of that crap. BBC have been quite fair and balanced this WC, they didn't under estimate the USA like the RTE dinosaurs.

As for RTE, I remember Dunphy writing stuff like Ireland could win the WC in 1990 so.......................

Well Dunphy is a great person.


We could have got to the quarter final or semi in this WC.

The USA who Giles fancied to beat Ghana?

Also in 1990 we had a team chock full of talented English First Division players, several who had won League Titles, FA Cups and European cups. Sadly for us they weren't allowed play football.

Add the words conviction and guile to this post and I'd be convinced Dunphy is in fact a boardsie.

Jokes aside, you're right. It's a bit of a taboo subject, critiquing Italia 90 but why should the greatest glory of Irish football be, essentially, drawing four and losing one of five games? Fair enough, given it was our first World Cup, getting to the quarter final is a decent achievement but the manner in which we got there is hardly something to scream about. I'd genuinely love to see those players, at that time, with a footballing football manager in charge.

That's because Giles under estimated Ghana! He is stuck in the 60's, hence is references to 66. Hilarious.

Agree with you on the rest. That wasn't the context I was replying to.

Waiting to see how the English media portray the loss tomorrow in the tabloids. Simple answer they were never good enough and simply over hyped team of individuals.
