People regularly insult Dunphy (calling him Dumbphy) only to parrot his gospel.

What's the harm in giving holohan 45 minutes. Literally nothing to lose.

They might be his last 45 minutes for Ireland

Poor Ireland, but we can turn this around. Two foolish goals to giveaway tbh.

Burial.

Might as well throw the kitchen sink at it. Get on McGeady to run at them, get on someone like Hourihane who actually has the balls to play ball and make something happen. Get Wes on. There are options there. Need to make changes now and have a go.

Brady and Arter didn't bust a gut to get back when Ward lost the ball

This is a discussion forum, what do you expect? Just a line of posts all commenting "Go on Ireland" "COYBIG" etc?

Not everyone trying to find a scapegoat. Most of the comments are simplistic, knee jerk rubbish.

The nutmeg on Arter shows his complete lack of defensive ability. I could have defended that better, leaving your legs wide open like that is a remedial error.

Can someone tell me what has Wes Houlihan done that makes people think so highly of him?

Some positives if we fail to qualify, we won't have to put up with;

A) The Best Fans in the World having the mad craic daily.

This Paddy Power 'banter' every ad break.

C) That cockwomble ringing that godforsaken bell every few minutes.

The fact that other people enjoying themselves on holiday seems to annoy or offend Boards posters is not a surprise.

brianregan09

yeah I'd defo stick Brady left back at least him and Mclean can work well together

Irish fans should be miserable predicting we are going to loose every match. Thats the downtrodden spirit we deserve.

Hendrick will come off.

Mclean only had to move a yd or two to the left the get the ball into feet on the edge of the box for that second goal. He just stood still and gave ward no option.

smelly sock

If MON doesnt make changes at half time it shows he is clueless.

So your disappointment could come in the form of penalties?

Stevecw

I'd bring Wes & Long on now for Ward and Hendrick who is invisible yet again.
No point waiting till the 75th or 80th min like he usually does.

It's grand we are playing downhill this half

Brady's woeful underhit pass did Ward no favours but Brady is immune to criticism.

Listen Ward ****ed up.

Kermit.de.frog

We can only come back to the failure to get an away goal. Even now we would be in a much better position coming back with a 1 - 1 or 2 - 2 from Denmark.

Felt it would really hurt us.

Get out

After seeing the wide angle replay i wouldn't blame Ward tbh and I'm not his biggest fan.

Everyone went to the box cause ONeill just wants them to get it long, he had nowhere to pass it but back.

You wouldn't see this stuff at Junior level.

Every throw in is a long ball, every free is into the box, every attack relies on the attacker beating 4 defenders to win something to repeat the process over.

He’s really not. I think he’s deservedly getting a trashing. Terrible attacking and defending in that half.

Scored the goal against Sweden in the Euros.

Set up the goal against Italy in the Euros.

Perfectly weighted pass for McCleans goal against Austria.

Perfectly weighted pass for Long vs Moldova

Wes on for the second half.

Wes on mcgeady on

Arter and Meyler off O_O

Mantis Toboggan

Brady has been criticized plenty on this thread already. The pass was slightly under hit but it was all on Ward losing possession. He still had plenty of time to deal with it.


Good to see you finally commenting on the game than hab8nga dig at other posters although you still managed to get that into the above post anyway.

Burial.

At least they're showing some balls.

Saint Wes on

Mantis Toboggan

Let's see what wes has.

StringerBell

The confidence I had in our defensive prowess has proved accurate. Really, really poor goals to give away. Really poor, asking for the first with the leaving the 2 on 1 option at the corners constantly.

Wes the Irish Messi is coming on so who knows, but I can see Denmark scoring again now we will be open.

Hopefully the players were brought together at half time because they were niggling at each other a little there which is no good for anybody.

Come on Ireland!
