That happened because ref bottled sending Bale off 10 seconds earlier.
Watched it back myself. Leg breaks badly and the moment he hits the ground he's signalling for helpOriginally Posted by BonnieShels

Cracking game and atmosphere since the red.
Until thevband start up of course..m
Now break Bales legs.
I'd bring on Hourihane now.
Not funny, TC

Dear God. That is awful to see.

That's what it looked like on the big screen here.
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Unnecessary by the twitter person. Won't watch it.
We're still strongly in control of our destiny. Although we could and should have won that and had Serbia play catch up. Wales may have lost too much in that game with Bale (should've seen red) and Taylor suspended for Serbia and beyond.
That said, we've likely lost Coleman for the campaign. Tragic and unacceptable. Gutted for him, such a great fella.
That was 2 points dropped. Wales were woejus. Though I'm more ****ed off at that tackle. Absolute thuggery.

whelan was superb tonight, i would have given him MOTM over mcclean. he will be overlooked though more likely than not.
It's terrible to see the leg is just dangling. He'll be out until 2018 I'd say.
I think we respected Wales too much tonight. As I mentioned earlier it's not often we'd get a top seed coming to Dublin under that much pressure.
We missed Hoolahan and Brady (more for set pieces). Back 4 coped well with Bale. After all the build up you'd be wondering what all the fuss was about.
If we beat Serbia at home we'll be going to Russia. After watching how bad their defence today was vs Georgia we just need to get our best players on the pitch.
The last time I saw an injury that bad in an Ireland shirt was Marty Rowlands in 2009 where his knee completely gave way, he never played for us again, I just hope Coleman recovers and plays again.
Just be thankful it wasn't the knee from the pictures i saw. I'm so gutted here. It feels like we lost.

I would've brought on McGeady earlier and I think Doyle could've been an asset as they're defence was buckling under the high ball.
Keogh and O'Shea were competent and untroubled, apart from one instance where Keogh gave the ball away under no pressure.
Ward was a step above, apart from one instance, where again, he gave away the ball haphazardly late on.
Thought Long and Walters were toothless, again Doyle could've added a different dimension.
One of Hendrick's worst performances. Thought Whelan began terribly, but grew into the game. Meyler was alright.
McClean one of our best players but doesn't say much.
I think we could've won the game with Brady And/or Hoolahan available.
Deeply saddened about Coleman's injury and that could affect us later in the campaign.
A debut in that cauldron ? There is a question mark over his chap as he played poorly for Barnsley on at least one occasion when RK watched him. I'm all for integrating him, but not there, not tonight, can't agree there at all.
I think it's been alluded to in several articles that Hourihane has been unfortunate to be scouted in games where he wasn't up to his usual standards.
I think there is an argument that he could've been brought on given we had two of Whelan, Hendrick and Meyler.
For 90 minutes we didn't have anyone who looked able or willing to thread a pass through the eye of the needle.
And he could've added composure to our set pieces.
As someone on Twitter had said,if you want yo share a picture around, share this one
Warms a cold cold heart
