    To be honest I think Ireland suffered from the hype that usually follows the England team in this tournament. Expectations were not realistic.

    It was an achievement to get there, for Ireland to get out of this group would have been an upset. All 3 teams in the group are better than Ireland IMO.

    No shame in getting battered by the world and euro champions either.

    That's exactly it. They rode their luck to get there and got a group where the most likely outcome was always going to be 3 bad results and going home.

    It's a shame that we play such negative football too though.

    At least there are no vuvuzelas.

    Although, if we got one really long one we could use it to blow the football toward the Spanish goal.

    Yeah, didn't he say he wouldn't be playing him (starting him, like) because his confidence wasn't right? How is putting him on at 3-0 down to Spain going to help that?

    Retirement or death which ever comes first. I'm going for the second option.

    I hope Ireland get trounced 7 or 8 nil now.

    Only a score like that would finally push a lot of these older players out - it's whats needed, an entire re-building programme before the World Cup. Time to develop a couple of kids...we've two years. It's not even that Spain are marvelous (don't get me wrong, they're not the WC winners for no reason) - but I've never seen a such a group of hopelessly inept, incompetent sorry excuse for footballers in my entire life.

    Ireland are purely unmitigated sh!te.

    It's amazing to hear the crowd belt out the fields of Athenry. 4-0 down and you can't even hear the Spanish for them. Amazing stuff.

    Exactly my point. Fair play to the fans over there though, 4-0 down and The Fields of Athenry is still belting out:)
