Oh well, on the plus side I don't have the temptation of taking a trip to Rio instead of my wedding next year!

Funny I could have sworn I heard him say he was optimistic and that Ireland would win.

Cox was so ineffective. Why make that sub? McClean was our best player and he was subbed. My mind boggles.

McClean and JOS were the two who showed intensity

Thank you Geoff Shreeves.

Disgraceful. A shameful indictment of the FAI, of the manager and of the football culture in this country.

I said it before the game, there was no justification for the optimism. Playing that way you will be found out against a team worth their salt and tonight it was found out.

Wow what? Did you not enjoy the Euros last summer? Results aside it was a joy to have qualified , gave the country a buzz. I'd rather be there and play poorly than not be there at all .

Some programs stream. Football matches and other sports only work in Ireland cos of rights issues.

I thought mclean and coleman had good games, long was good too till he got into the box

swoody

even the sky dude thinks that was traps last game.......

True, I forgot Cox was on

At least Pilkingtons beard was memorable

We're just long ball merchants.

Depressing but true. Its like a trip back in time 25 years....but without the quality of players we had then.
In truth we don't deserve to qualify, we were awful from the time we went ahead tonight. Lots of long hoofing balls up the pitch with no real plan or meaninful attempt to create chances.

Alpha Dog 1

Why didn't Andy Reid come on?
Really could have done with himself and Colin healy in midfield.

Lennonist

Desperate, turgid stuff. Trap should have went after the Euros everyone knows it.

Turtyturd

The real shame is Pilkington's beard won't be seen on a World Cup stage.

Essien

Absolutely gutted. At least now that old chancer Trapp will be shown the door. Good riddance too.

Alpha Dog 1

Martin O'Neill please.

kupus

And now the real entertainment starts

What's the point of Sweden being in Brazil?

They'll finish 2nd in group and then lose to England in 2nd round

At least we'll bring comedy value

etc etc.

Agreed. Plus it'll probably look like this by next June.



Sweden's gain is the worlds loss.

You said as an irish soccer fan. If you enjoyed that as an Irish fan, fair play. Results are most important in soccer.

Mr.Nice Guy

McClean was Ireland's best player imo.

It's funny, though, we keep hearing that the team needs to play it on the ground more, but on the occasions that they did so, many of them - Whelan, Wilson, for instance - couldn't seem to pass the bloody ball.

Whelan in particular is not going to take us forward in the long-term and we need a new central midfielder desperately.

Thing is Sweden aren't that good, if we played to our strengths and not using the pathetic fossilized tactics of the Italian we could have won. Against Germany we will be facing another cricket score with this manager in charge!

He's old.
He's senile.
We just need to find out his parents marital status, what he said could be completely true.

At least the FAI will save a few quid now that that drunken embarrassment Delaney won't be throwing free drinks at anyone who looks in his direction next year...

Drunken oafs out!!

Festy

Philosophy ? Eamo

You mean Hail Mary crosses into the box

My name is URL

Fcuk them.. they didn't deserve to get anywhere near qualification. None of them deserve it..

martingriff

When Liam Brady says he has to go and it is not good then you know it is time. I was one of the ones who supported Trap an dI admit I was wrong.

Ardent

Bill is right. The players are not good enough.

Chagan

Trap out, Pulis in.

You just know it's going to happen.

swoody

Jim Gavin should be the next manager with this lot

DEVEREUX

FU Brady
