Can't believe I'm nervous over this. Come on Ireland!

The_Kew_Tour · 07-09-2012 4:58pm

bit of everything in that team.

double GG · 07-09-2012 4:58pm

I always wonder how they get classed as a European country.

Mr.Crinklewood · 07-09-2012 4:58pm

I`m going to have a crisp sandwich.

They were speaking some strange language. Im pretty sure it was *incomprehensible* Asian!

They actually played in the Asian qualifiers for the first few tournaments after the split of the Soviet Union.

I wonder are they unpopular with their neighbours or something and that's why they play in UEFA?

The_Kew_Tour · 07-09-2012 5:01pm

Great speech by Robbie:D

Skid · 07-09-2012 5:01pm

Ah here, is Robbie doing Karaoke requests now?

And I'd imagine they'd surely have a better chance playing Asia?

GLaDOS · 07-09-2012 5:02pm

Anything less than a win and qualification is unlikely tbh

Kylo Ren · 07-09-2012 5:02pm

Kazakhstan is the greatest, exporter of potassium. All other countries, have inferior potassium.

Looks like someone set Whelan's mic to the right level for once.

double GG · 07-09-2012 5:03pm

Anything less than 3 points would be catastrophic.

The_Kew_Tour · 07-09-2012 5:03pm

I know about 10 people in stands fair play to them. Some trip over. One my friends had to leave on Tuesday.

Francie Barrett · 07-09-2012 5:03pm

What the hell was that about at the start of the match?

Also, what was Hamilton going on about boulders?

K, thanks for that fact.

Kerrydude1981 · 07-09-2012 5:03pm

For a team so low in the rankings they have a fine stadium,I was expecting a stadium like Andorra.

antodeco · 07-09-2012 5:04pm

3-1 to Ireland. There will be on own goal in the game!

Pudsy33 · 07-09-2012 5:04pm

I feel like I'm watching a replay of a game from the 80s

SantryRed · 07-09-2012 5:05pm

Is it only my TV where the picture doesn't fit the screen?

What way did their flights go? I can't imagine a direct flight!

Possibly to Dubai or Abu Dhabi and onwards from there?

Francie Barrett · 07-09-2012 5:07pm

nearly scored, twice!

Mars Bar · 07-09-2012 5:07pm

Unlucky McCarthy

SantryRed · 07-09-2012 5:07pm

So we have our decent start. When will we score, then hang on for dear life?

Mars Bar · 07-09-2012 5:07pm

Looking dangerous from the corners we are

kellso81 · 07-09-2012 5:07pm

Is it an artificial pitch? looks bit too perfect

kitakyushu · 07-09-2012 5:07pm

As usual we get our 5 minutes of attacking before 85 of boredom. Enjoy!

They went bit arse ways. Think it was Denmark then Estonia and onto some other place before they got there.

The flights were cheap for that distance. Just glad for them that most them have their own business etc so they can afford to go.:)

It is

It looks like they're still using the old Soviet cameras.

They're in the Eurovision too, just like Russia & Israel

i have never seen so many Irish players forward.

One of the weirdest and best looking stadiums I think. Its how I imagined the kazak stadium to look!

gnfnrhead · 07-09-2012 5:10pm

This is bizarre looking. From the score line graphic to the picture ratio to the astro turf. Everything looks odd.

Doing ok so far. A couple of half chances.

desaparecidos · 07-09-2012 5:10pm

You can see when they have possession they pass it better than us. It never ceases to amaze how these types of teams can pass us off the park.

We're all go in fairness! Need to be careful not be caught on a break. They really cannot handle Walters so far though. We're causing havoc with long ball up

sReq | uTeK · 07-09-2012 5:11pm

Crazy to think we're 4/6 to beat kazak, a team ranked 120 places above us.

That'd be their oil. And potassium apparently :pac:

Playing long ball against feckin Kazakhstan!

Bodhisopha · 07-09-2012 5:13pm

Kazakhstan greatest country in the world.
All other countries are run by little girls.
Kazakhstan number one exporter of potassium.
Other countries have inferior potassium.

Kazakhstan home of Tinshein swimming pool.
It’s length thirty meter and width six meter.
Filtration system a marvel to behold.
It remove 80 percent of human solid waste.

Kazakhstan, Kazakhstan you very nice place.
From Plains of Tarashek to Norther fence of Jewtown.
Kazakhstan friend of all except Uzbekistan.
They very nosey people with bone in their brain.

Kazakhstan industry best in the world.
We incented toffee and trouser belt.
Kazakhstan’s prostitutes cleanest in the region.
Except of course Turkmenistan’s

Kazakhstan, Kazakhstan you very nice place.
From Plains of Tarashek to Norther fence of Jewtown.
Come grasp the might phenis of our leader.
From junction with the testes to tip of its face!
