What was the exact quote that Staunton said?
when you reimburse me for the price of my paper I will furnish you with the information contained within...until then buy your own ya mooch...
hey Klein how often to many people in here post up articles from subscription websites.
Whatever paper it was they got their quotes from the Late Late show. "We'll be certainly trying our best to qualify, don't worry about that" was something he said. No matter what he says to the media, his main objective is getting us to Euro 2008, there's no question about that.
what do you want me to do ?
leave work, go home, scour the house for saturdays herald,find the quote and post it on this board? "what was his exact quote?"
I'm not dustin hoffman in rainman. I cant remember!!!!!:confused:
Well the Herald is trash so if its a quote it will be in other papers also, so you could do a search on the times, or on unison or on the examiner. I dont think that the Herald had an exclusive interview with Staunton recently so therefore any quotes will be from other interviews or the press conference.
I think Staunton has stated that he will be trying new players over the next while and his ultimate aim is to qualify for 2010 however that does not mean he has given up on 2008. He stated this on the Late late show the other night.
Fact is, it is you who are insinuating that the Euros will be just a "bedding in" phase and that he is "preparing the ground for failure". These are your quotes, not Stauntons. He actually said "We'll be trying our best to qualify, don't worry about that". The reality is quite different to what seems to be in your head.Quote:

what he is and has said is " we will try our best but it is goin to be sooooo hard cause we have to blood new players and did I mention we are only 4th seeds now, which really has nuthin to do with me and sure wasnt the previous regime responsible for letting good sons of erin like wayne rooney slip thru our fingers and declare for the brits and sure wouldnt we all really prefer to play in south africa than have to go to expensive oul switzerland...????????"
I think you will find the exact quote in last tuesdays herald. Paul Hyland exclusive if I remember correctly.
Well I think people can no see that the best option is to ignore all posts from Klein 4 if you want to deal in intelligent debate about football. The wind up merchant has shown his colours. Maybe I am giving him too much credit by suggesting that he is winding people up.
why do you always feel the need to address some imaginary audience?? I am sure people can make their own mind up( if they care.) what you call intelligent debate I call mutual back slapping and copy and paste!:)
one mans fruit is another mans poison.;)
Can't find this exact quote or any like it in last tuesday's herald. Again, it must be just in your head. What I do know he said is "We'll be trying our best to qualify, don't worry about that".Quote:

At least that way people can actually see the quotes rather than imaginary ones from your head. Also this is a forum for debate and there is nothing wrong with agreeing with somebody if they make a good point which is well argued and is based on facts and a little bit of opinion. I woudl say this even if I did not agree with the opinion. What I dont like is infantile debate.
what you dont like is people who disagree with you on a thread so then you spend the rest of your time tryin to show them up on anything else they post. now thats infantile.
I have disagreed with many people on this, Karlos been one and I have never tried to show him up once. If he puts up a post that I agree with or is well argued I will tell him that. So to be honest that is a weak argument you put up there as there is no evidence of it. As I said I dont mind having different views to people but its infantile arguments without research that I find boring as they come across more as rants.
I stand by what I said.
That I think they are making excuses now for the Euros which will be used not to bed in players but to bed in the manager. its the general impression I have got from listening to interviews with Staunton and Delaney. and I find it a bit disappointing as a supporter that there will be another tournament we wont qualify for.If I am proved wrong and we hit the ground running and go all out to qualify then all the better!!!
What I was posting against was this sort of nonesense which you cant stand by as it was never said by Staunton or Delaney.
"eh not really.
hes hardly going to say " we are not going to qualify"
what he is and has said is " we will try our best but it is goin to be sooooo hard cause we have to blood new players and did I mention we are only 4th seeds now, which really has nuthin to do with me and sure wasnt the previous regime responsible for letting good sons of erin like wayne rooney slip thru our fingers and declare for the brits and sure wouldnt we all really prefer to play in south africa than have to go to expensive oul switzerland...????????"
I think you will find the exact quote in last tuesdays herald. Paul Hyland exclusive if I remember correctly."
well until Greenbod scans in pictures of himself going thru last tuesdays herald than that quote stands.
No if you are putting up quotes from Steve Staunton its up to you to prove that he said them and find the source of them otherwise it is just mis quoting Steve Staunton to suit your argument. Either we are going to follow some sort of protocol on this site and not to mis qoute international manager, well then the thing is a free for all.
Here's the evidence you're looking for. As you can see I examined the Herald in great detail...............Couldn't find the quote you mentioned!Quote:
