    Poor Russian Manager. Gulag FC next season

    They have no creativity at all. They might do well when they get dominated by better teams and have space but I don't think they are good enough at the back.


  • Registered Users Posts: 661 ✭✭✭derm0j073


    Wales stroll past a ****e Russian team into the next round.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,928 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    I'm guessing Roy is no longer a tactical genius like he was after the Wales game. :P

    Hey... try this.
    Turn over to RTE2, watch it for five minutes, then quickly change to TV3.

    I went running around looking for my glasses, and I dont wear glasses!! The beauty of HD.

    Wow, how do they get that underwater effect?

    Ah, Ireland, the baramoter of heat measurement!!

    Plus it really isnt that much warmer! Have you ever crossed the English channel to Calais, its almost colder than Ireland at certain times of the year, its only an hour from Lens!

    England doesn't seem to have a Game plan. Just hoping for some individual brilliance...

    Really awful last 15 or 20 minutes from them. Have stopped trying to be clever inside the box, just smashing it into an area with 15 or so bodies congesting everything in the hope of a lucky bounce. And then occasionally Rooney just runs on himself, doesn't pass, and loses the ball.

    The only way to score in this situation is to do exactly what Sturridge did in the last game, but they're not even trying.

    Group will finish
    1. Average
    2. Pedestrian
    3. Awful
    4. Awfuler

    Would have been a great group to end up in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    Fair play Wales. An England win could have been better for Ireland but what an achievement.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,521 ✭✭✭✭mansize


    Wonder what words of genius Clive will have


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,061 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    Heroic draw!

    So who will Wales potentially play? Didnt buy the wallchart

    2nd in group F so anyone yet from Hungary, Iceland, Portugal or Austria

    Had that wrong

    As it stands Wales are playing Albania

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    So England will play the runners-up of Group F, correct? Maybe Hungary?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,928 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    2nd in group F so anyone yet from Hungary, Iceland, Portugal or Austria

    Bale vs Ronnie please.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,050 ✭✭✭✭The Talking Bread


    not a good result for us at all.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,631 ✭✭✭Dirty Dingus McGee


    Delighted for England.

    They took Slovakia for granted thought they could fiddle around with their team and still get the result.

    On the run of play they should have won all 3 games but ****ed up.

    Ooooo, I'd LOVE to see Wales V Portugal...Bale V Ronaldo. On play so far, would fancy Wales.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26,567 ✭✭✭✭Fratton Fred


    ****ing hell, England were completely clueless going forward.

    You're much more knowledgeable than me on these things, but do England not play second in that group despite actually coming second in the group themselves, with Wales facing either 3rd in A, D or C?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,046 ✭✭✭Berserker


    England still stuck in third gear. I'm clinging to that thought.
    ****ing hell, England were completely clueless going forward.

    Very frustrating night. Starting to question Roy, Lewington and Co. to be honest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Wales won the group so will play a 3rd placed team from Group A, C, or D.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,019 ✭✭✭✭adox


    Stupid making those changes to the line up. Fair plays to Wales for topping the group.

    English win would have suited Ireland better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy

    I'm pretty sure they play France do they not?

    England looking like the worst big nation?

    All day....

    Bale enhances Wales
    Ronnie is a handbrake on Portugal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,546 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    Tv 3 Commentator states that Slovakia now qualified as well. I don't see how he can really say that 100% yet but he is mostly right.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,446 ✭✭✭glued

    Yeah and then a tie against France would likely come next.

    The worst and the biggest.

    No France will play a third placed team next.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    Wales will more than likely play Albania. England play 2nd in portugals group .

    France are group winners so will play a 3rd placed team from Group C, D, or E.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,631 ✭✭✭Dirty Dingus McGee


    France v England in the quarters if it were to go on form (assuming England winning is going on form).

    The farce of this tournament set up is that depending on pure luck with the group you are in you can finishing second and get another 2nd placed team rather than a 1st placed team.Same applies with finishing 1st getting you either a 2nd or 3rd placed team depending on what group your drawn in.

    England are the English version of Ireland.

    No, B2 plays F2, so anyone in Portugal's group could still fill that position.

    Albania are not making it.

    You wouldn't back either Sweden or Ireland to win on current form, and they would only need Czechs to draw with Turkey in order to qualify then.

    I keep forgetting that, we actually have to win :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,356 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    Great game tonight...well done, Wales :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,444 ✭✭✭✭Skid X


    Radio Wales is reporting on traffic news now.

    Who the hell is on the road in Wales tonight?


    Wales 3 Russia 0 !!!!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,546 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    not a good result for us at all.

    It's not really as we still have to win and I think two teams will have 3 points or less.
    Albania is one already so just one more to go.
