Would you take a point against Italy?

The odds would have KK at red hot fav to be our fall guy and complete a unique hat trick.

Not getting second spot is very feasible in my opinion. Italy could easily beat us at home, no question. Montenegro are no mugs and we could have one of those nights.

I expect Bulgaria to get 6 more points, though I'll be praying Cyprus get something from them. Having the pressure off before we take the pitch against Italy would be amazing.

Good point. Any chance of rte actually showing that game? I suppose there isn't enough riding on it for rte to show it. Also, I bet the ratings for Italy Bulgaria dropped off pretty soon after the first Italian goal, never mind the second.

Yeah that would be great but even if that happened wouldn't we still need a point to avoid finishing the bottom 2nd placed team?
Anyway I wouldn't settle for a point, I think we should really go for it like we did against them last time even if that also increases the chances of losing the game because if we can't beat Monty at home then we were never going to beat one of the top 4 seeded teams in a playoff anyway.
