Pathetic challenge from Whelan.

McCarthy.

I don't want to lump on him, but it was a stupid tackle, just stand him up.

TPF2012

A pure cop-out tackle on DB by McCarthy on the sideline.

Ally Dick

Got what we deserved for cowardly, heartless football

J. Marston

Is he still a disgrace, Giles?

Idiot.

nullzero

Pathetic.
Play for a draw and this is what you get.

De bruyne made that goal tbh. Caught on the break. So that's why we can't have nice things

I'd like to see what happened with Long, shouldn't the ref have ay least stopped for a head injury?

Ref doesn't seem to have much of a clue of anything.

Osmosis Jones

Okay the replay looks like a high foot every day

Psychedelic

Well, considering he has a bit of a shoot-on-sight policy, he was the one player that should’ve been picked up then; it was both careless and costly from where I’m sitting.

Clear Hearts

Its been coming the whole game, we have been terrible, long ****ing balls the whole game

This could turn into a blood bath now

Masala

Now we have to come out to play

J Mysterio

Could be the best thing to haplen to us as now we need to play

Ironically when we had everyone in their half

Peist2007

Have to see out the next 10 or 15

gandalf

Need to equalise quickly or the floodgates could open!

Ally Dick

Lukaku. Typical Everton schizophrenic player. One day disastrous. Next day brilliant

kona

That gimp of a referee sent nani off v Real Madrid for a foot that was a good foot lower than that drop kick on long in the box.

Would defo have been a free-kick anywhere else. Ref didn't want to give it as it meant giving a pen.

J Mysterio

Christie, Mclean on.

Keane an option later.

Guy:Incognito

Is the TV feed slightly delayed or is it just Rte? The push notifications from the uefa app are coming through a couple of seconds before things happen. So allowing for the person that runs it to update and it to come through, it must be a 10 second delay.

vienne86

Corner....one of the few ways we might score.

Mr.Nice Guy

Brainless ball from Whelan.

He's finished

Clear Hearts

Are we all going to do the cool thing and blame James McCarthy again today

_Kaiser_

Hard to see a come back from that given the way we've been playing. Part of it is the negative approach, part is the ref, but another part is the reality that we're just not good enough in a lot of cases. Look at where most of our players ply their trade. Very few top-flight people unfortunately.

It'll all come down to next week's game I think and that won't be easy either.

He cant run, but he can score you a goal. This is his last tournament.

Benimar

Just seen the replay of the high foot on Long. Penalty all day long:(

gandalf

Our passing in the final third has been abysmal. No quality at all.

Boskowski

Seemingly they need to concede before they can forget about their fear or something. Looking different all of a sudden. Not that this necessarily means they're gonna kill Belgium now, but it looks different.

J. Marston

Apres Match taking the piss out of Giles after this would be funny.

"You do talk an awful amount of shíte, don't you John?"

theteal

Don't waste your breath looking for the handball lads

Francie Barrett

Hendrick the best of our midfielders by a garden mile. McCarthy doesn't want to be out there.

How is it the cool thing? He's playing very poorly and is hiding.

nullzero

Like watching a car crash in slow motion

glued

Whelan absolutely useless

The Talking Bread

cue..................calls for PENALTY.........when it wasnt one1

You w@nker! :mad: that was at least a free in HAND BALL!

Give him five attempts, and he'll put one away. He won't get the five chances

Harry Palmr

The players are slipping far too much.

Belgium have their goal and dropped off. Same as us v Sweden. It's what generally happens in football when a team scores.

Osmosis Jones

Not a chance we should put it out for him, they scored their goal while Long was down with a head injury

Look at his goalscoring record and come back to me.

Is a garden mile shorter than a country mile? :-)
