Starting eleven

[thepogues]

Robbie Keane is just not getting any support, hes the guy that can provide that moment of magic like he did against Germany, he shouldent have been taken off. Morrison is just awful literally 90% of the close up shots Ive seen of him in my life are of him showing that annoyed, if only i done that look. afte hes mit a sitter
To say robbie Keane should not play again is just a joke, I agree with the others though. Robbie Keanes our leading goalscore I might remind you

there is no link between midfield and attack, that has been our major problem IMO.

I knew it was over when Kerr sent on Gary 'the mobility of Ron Kovic, the pace of a sunken ship' Doherty.

Back from the club. The terrible realisation that I will be nothing but a neutral at the next World Cup seems to be more sobering than any amount of alcohol I could consume.

I just didn't get the feeling we could do it. When that happens, there's something seriously wrong. I don't even think the players believed it either, just all part of our decline.

I'll close my eyes tonight and think of our missed chances against Israel, and everywhere else.

Well they lost it a long time ago why o why did'nt they play with such determination from the start.

Because of Kerr's attitude before earlier games; "We don't have to win" :rolleyes: , so what happened? We didn't beat anybody. :(


Kerr must leave and take Morrison with you..how is that guy playing for our country?

Because he scored a goal for Crystal Palace against Liverpool in the 2001 League Cup semi-final, that's his only reason for being part of our side. Before then, he was Clinton who?? :confused:


I can't sum up how I feel inside, I just feel....empty.And tearful.

Amazing, in the grand scheme of things, how us blokes get upset over losing football matches, isn't it?? :D


Seriously, failing to qualify for the World Cup is a severe blow to public morale, and the financial hit further harms the development of grass-roots football at all levels in this country, which does us no favours either. The FAI simply can't afford to write-off the loss of €5m of World Cup prize money. That's the financial penalty for not qualifying, and the previous good record of the side lies in tatters. The next coach has a massive task on his hands to restore confidence and team morale, in the 11 months before the next campaign. Roll on Austria and... Switzerland. :rolleyes:

Still feeling down this morning as i wake up. Couldn't even bring myself to make it into college. Hopefully we can develop a few of the younger centre midfielders because that is where we were really struggling.

And sorry to say it but kerr has to go. He is too negativ and loyal to players such as gary doherty
