goal!!!!!!!!!

[Noelys Guitar]

Dunphy just said we won't qualify. Surely followed by Sadlier on Sunday. Things just get better and better.

[gormacha]

And yet somehow we won and we are 2nd in the group which is better than our playing resources would suggest. How do you explain that?????

It was a pi55 poor group - perhaps the worst quality group in the competition. Our playing resources suggest we should finish second or near enough to it.

We won because they had a man sent off that shouldn't have been, and one of their defenders makes a once in a lifetime error. Apart from the first fifteen minutes of the second half we were utter rubbish, and completely outplayed in every department. We don't even try to play decent football.

For who?

[French Toasht]

The lads in the studio seem to think the Czechs are ranked ahead in terms of playoffs, can the mathematicians confirm this. I didn't think this was the case.

goal!!!!!!!!!

for who?

[tricky_colour]

For who?

well it did not seem to count it was for the team in white in the slovenia match, it could have been a replayof the first goal - have both games on here
so its a bit confusing.

So effectively you can ignore my 'goal!'

I reckon they were calculating reputation. Can't imagine they've delved into the mathematics of it.

[geysir]

Wales win again, our dear friend Cymro must be walking in rarified air

[French Toasht]

87 mins gone in Serbia. The Slovenia boys are doing us a massive favour. Still 1-0 Slovenia.

&4 mins gone in Paris. Status quo remains.

[tricky_colour]

peno for france?

[Real ale Madrid]

1-1 peno scored - Nasri

[Noelys Guitar]

I was going to make a speech about bring any of them on. ****** to that. Give us Estonia.

[culloty82]

France equalise, we're currently the third-best seeds.

[tricky_colour]

So is that better for us?

Too confusing for me.

[Stuttgart88]

France equalise.

[Noelys Guitar]

According to RTE online it is excellent France scored for us to be seeded.
Samir Nasri equalises for France against Bosnia. That means it is now Bosnia heading for the play-offs.

2130 Slovenia have done us a massive favour. They lead Serbia by one goal with three minutes left, thus putting Estonia in the play-offs.

2128 Estonia, Montenegro and Bosnia would certainly be seeded below Ireland. Turkey may pip us?

[Sullivinho]

The Slovenia boys are doing us a massive favour.

I fancied 'em. No love lost there I'd say.

[ken foree]

bbc has full-time in slovenia, 1-0 against the serbs.
