This is hilarious. How did Poland only manage 7?

Does this mean we're better than Poland?

FourFourRED

Can we bring Roy on at half time? Hell, even bring Brady on too and see how they play together!

Stop. Stop. He is already dead.

Gibraltar are an embarrassment. This could be any score.

TheMilkyPirate

I really fear for Gibraltar against Germany. Double figures easy.

Adamocovic

We need to keep going and score more, goal difference could be important

Frankie Lee

Should be looking at beating the record win of 8-0 against San Marino in 1984.

Adamocovic

Would love to see Stokes given a game second half, easily could see him net a few

Backstreet Moyes

Keep it going this is a tight group goal difference could count.

Doubtful really,


If we end up in the playoffs then the results against Gibraltar wont count and im pretty sure they do head to head instead of goal difference

MagicIRL

What's really scary is what Germany will do to Gibraltar.

westernfrenzy

At this stage Poland were only 1-0 up

IvySlayer

Roy Keane must be awful tempted to get his football boots out of his car

antodeco

Wasted play there. Still.making silly mistakes, even against a team like this

Frankie Lee

It doesn't matter, the main thing is to keep the playing standard up and try not develop bad habits. Show no mercy to the joke of a country Gibralter is.

Poland were away from home (I don't even know if that makes a difference)

Do goals against the lowest ranked team count for anything?

If they keep in form we might actually see the bookies default handicap at double digits (England were -7 against San Marino the other day for example, while Germany are better and Gibraltar are worse).


Ah, Robbie! Excellent cross.

Mars Bar

We look like Barcelona here FFS

keith16

What a ball that was....this is men against..... other men. But the other men are crap at football.

I don't think it would make much difference, they'd still be blitzed either way.

NabyLadistheman

Ronnie still not satisfied

Bit harsh, no?

Forgot about that, isn't overall goal difference only taken into account if the team were tired with we have drawn with twice and same goals scored and conceded. Also isn't there something about goals against last place team not counting in tie breakers? Not really sure tbh

Still would like to see us not just settle for the scoreline and push on and add to it.

Aidric

Roy Chipolina? Was he in Goodfellas?

FourFourRED

It would be typically Ireland to go on and finish this at 3/4-0 now

Hank Scorpio

These lads make Ward look a international quality left back

If better not, I have them at -4.

Neil3030

Playing the ****test team of all time and John O'Shea still manages to get skinned twice.

Adamocovic

I honestly wouldnt be surprised to see Gibraltar get a sneaky goal...has that feel to it so far!

Bounty Hunter

Scotland winning fortunately against Georgia

cmon Robbie score a few more before your rested

Lapin

I fear for him on next Tuesday night:(.

Backstreet Moyes

Hoolohan has been very good.

Mars Bar

What is wrong with you McClean?!

The Gibraltar full backs haven't a clue what they are at.

Hammer Archer

You silly boy McClean.

Adamocovic

We want to get another goal before half time, just to keep the tempo going. Hopefully a few subs come on who are eager to score!

keeponhurling

So does this mean Meyler will play at right back v Germany ?

Paco Rodriguez

McLean should have walked for that.

MagicIRL

Hendrick has been poor so far. I know he's only back from injury, but still.

Harry Palmr

Need to get Keane on there to growl at a few of them.

LowOdour

Any reason not to have 2 up front and still have hoolahan playing in behind them?

Kenjataimu

We need another goal before half time to keep it ticking over.

No need for four at the back here. Long or Doyle on for a defender.

Mint Sauce

Gone a bit quiet.

4/5. Have it in a treble with Scotland just to win (8/13) at home to Georgia, and N. Ire -1 at home to the Faroes (5/6). Tenner on, few pennies over a €53 return if it comes off.

antodeco

Game has become quite neutralised and stagnent.
