No question about it. Latest news from the norwegian squad is that all the keepers where injured in yesterdays training, but still we will win....

But Carew and Flo on top....can anyone beat that??

Do anyone know if Robbie keane and s carr will be playing tomorrow???

Maybe you should try putting Flo in nets - he might be better off there

Don't see why not - it's not like Spurs are pushing for a European place or anything;) . Apparently Carr's nursing a back injury though

[The Sheliban]

Yes, I'll be there, my second match since 1988, after which it got too difficult to get a ticket.
I predict a dull, uninspiring 0-0 draw.

3-1 to ireland, crowe to score the 3rd after comin off the bench

[Schumi]

Yeah, I'm going. I reckon a 1-0 win for Ireland.

[Greenbod]

I'll be there. 2-0 Ireland

[pete]

Might pop in for quick one in Searsons depending when leave work.

If ye see anyone starting afight it'll be me giving anyone who booes Flo (ex-Glawsgow Rangers) a slap.

hey its mystic meg
it all fell apart a bit with all the changes. ah well. duffer lookied good in that role but our defence and midfield isn't strong enough for us to try 4-3-3 in competitive games. I personally though Kilbane and Breeny played well, it's annoying all the sarcastic laughs that would go up every time they got the ball. And Richie Dunne too. Feckin Irish cynisism. Who would they like playing left wing, Ljunberg or Giggsy??!

[Real ale Madrid]

Kilbane was red raw useless.

My first time in any stand at Lansdowne. Me felt like a St James Ender @ Turners Cross ;)

Norway were boring & only time they got enthuasitic was for the long throwins :rolleyes:

I thought a good idea for Keer to try Duff in a free role. Most likely a trial run for the two games in June against packed Georgian & Albanian defences.

I thought Carr was classy eventhough pretty much no irish midfielder playing on the right. Kilbane is a trier put still not very good last night taking wrong options at times - still he got back well to defend when he needed to.

I'm no fan of Connolly & thought he almost anonymous. Presumably Kerr kept him on so long so he would have his chance. On last nights display he will surely only continue to get in the squad as Keer sees no viable alternative.

Bit disappointed that Crowe not given at least 10 minutes as opposed to his token 2 minute slot. Its clear to see Kerr not just going to play people in friendlies unless he likely to use them in competitive match sometime.

Disappointed to hear the muppets boo Flo when he came on for the 2nd half but genuinely surprised with the big cheer for Crowe when he came on.
