    Just how incompetent is Don Givens?? He played Liam Miller as captain in the 2-1 win over Albainia last week even though the player was suspended after picking up two yellow cards. Now Ireland have to forfeit the three points.

    The FAI need to replace Givens imo. The U21 side have been performing awful of late. They are bottom of their qualifying group. Also anyone remember how he handled David Connolly withdrawing from the Ireland squad against Greece? The guy is a a joke, and the quicker hes replaced, the better.

    I was surprised he kept the job when Brian Kerr took over the first team management.

    Did UEFA not contact anyone about Miller's suspension? I know the FAI, Givens and Miller should have known, but UEFA should have informed them before the game.
