I think the FAI would have to get a loan off the IMF to sort that mess out

It'd be worth it if this is what we have to look forward to.

If we lose this match and Trap doesn't have the dignity to walk, then shame on him and his pride.

Pats beat most of this Kazakh side as Shakhtar Karagandy didn't they?

Francie Barrett

McShane to come on and shore up the defence

It's a shame Dunphy isn't on today. The other lads aren't as entertaining without his over the top statements

True, I can only imagine how appalled he would be analysing this game and may have questioned a lot about the team and the Management.

brianregan09

We;ll get a lucky one like against Croatia then they'l go up and score there 3rd one

double GG

Anyone got the possession stats?

Also when the ball is being hoofed in the air, is that still considered to be Ireland's possession?

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!

No response at all so far.

If anyone is familiar with those surfaces, it is incredibly difficult NOT to want to play ball on it. I play regularly at a decent level in UL and it's a joy to play on it.

kitakyushu

Are they using a Tango football for the game? Hope it isn't one from 1982!

Stephen Ward is one of the worst players to ever pull on a green shirt for us

Aidric

I'm actually angry watching this.

What are our other options at left-back? Because Ward is complete poison there.

I love hoofing it long on it. Needless to say, I have dreams of playing for Ireland some day...

Irelands long ball tactics are mostly effective.

Oh Jesus H Christ.
It is not a fooking rugby match where we should hoof the ball forward and hope for the best.

I like McGeady but he is having a mare. Cox too.

He has had a lot of those.
over rated much.

markie29 wrote: »

was a good cross in from the free kick and the kazakh guy flicked the ball in....not sure if it was bad marking as no replays shown during the first half.

awful marking by Glenn Whelan on near post.

Awful poor marking giving guy too much room.

Sad to think that the most interesting thing about this match is how the Kazaks TV are covering it. :rolleyes:

Kirov and Konysbaev are the only 2 from Karagandy playing tonight.

Karagandy won the league there last year, and are top this year. The rest of the team (bar 2 players) play in Kazakhstan with lesser teams.

It's very bad.

Doyle is coming on?????

WOW, don't put Shane Long on anyway. Premiership striker who's in form.... God no, that would be intelligent!

Hank Scorpio

Doyle looks set to come on, its disgusting Shane Long doesn't get more game time

Why wasn't St.Ledger in the box for that corner

So they're playing for worse teams?:eek:

jack presley

Is there a worse crosser of a ball from a free kick/corner in professional football than Aidan McGeady?

Liam O

Kevin Doyle? For Cox? Ah sure who needs wingers when you can play your strikers on the wing.

_blank_

Will anyone ask Trap a direct question about his direct football, and will he pretend to not understand the answer.

Outdated football, being found out by the likes of Kazakhstan, has the man an ounce of dignity left?

double GG

Another dangerous free kick coming in here!

markie29

bewildering sub there....wtf is Trap watching! where is McClean!
