Beauty of a goal!!!
We stop that **** At The back, is it on purpose? Twice fool you are. .....goal!!!!!!! From a mistake to killl. Obagemi is okocha with that pass!!!
Does that make him both our most dangerous attacking player and the opposition team's most dangerous attacking player?Quote:

Pinch me I must be dreaming 😂
What a delivery and Parrott finisghing was Stapleton's.....
Kenny In!!!
(Just Joking! Am I? I don’t know.)
There's the potential future of Irish football.. right there.. two kids who should be playing with the 21's.. and would be if Mick was still manager while we'd be flinging balls up to Will Keane
Please, please hold on now.. we need this win like no other we ever needed
Dont want to be too positive they should have scored in those turnovers and gave aways. Steve Clarke is half Irish isn't he?
McClean has been best player on the pitch so far at 33.
When it works, it's lovely to watch.Quote:

But let's enjoy this for now and argue the manager later :)
We'd be 100% better off, rather than expecting Shane Duffy to play out from the back, sending him up the field and hoofing it up the field to win the kick outs..
Scotland are rank rotten at the back…
Loving the ref too.. no ballsing around, let it run, tell lads get up and get on with it
Doherty and Omobamidele when back from injury??Quote:

We've been ultra competitive. A couple of heart-in-the-mouth moments with Duffy at the back. One wonderful moment of quality with Parrott's goal.
What a half! Could well be the half that saved him. Nothing like the naive exuberance of Kids. Obafemi, Parrot and Knight look a great attacking three. Has to be the watershed moment where we put our faith in the next generation and consign the lost generation to the annals of history.
Yeah and the Obafemi fault wasn't when McClean tried an Olimpic goal hit the upright, plus let's say it we scored a fluke goal. The 1st. The match should be levelled. We wew too naive at the back. Mcginn should have scored one a game changer. Frank Stapleton kind of finishing the 2nd, left the gk hopeless.Quote:

Egan and Collins top class. McClean doing McClean things but, joking aside, he’s done well in the LWB position. One awful cross which is standard expectation at this stage. Kenny will feel Browne selection at RWB is vindicated with the goal (he called out Browne scoring two goals for Preston from RWB as part of his reasons for picking him there), but he clearly isn’t our best solution there when all are fit.
I much prefer the look of Cullen/Molumby vs Cullen/Hendrick, especially with the fact that we are playing a proper front two up front as it gives Knight the opportunity to do what he does best adding tempo and purpose in the final third.
For the criticisms deserved in the last two games, the plaudits for the performance in that 45 are warranted too. I’d like to see us get another couple. Scotland are no great shakes across the pitch. Finish them.
Kenny producing a result when he needs one.
Real chance to rack up a big win here. Scotland are poor, but we've been quite decent. Cut out the sloppy mistakes and go at them in this half.
No more fannying around with the ball the back in the second half, surely?
It's suicidal stuff.
Hopefully no start of 2nd half slump now! Great stuff so far. A few shaky moments but has Kelleher had a save to make? We might have had at least one more.
McClean was overconfident is the last kick, had a good half thought he would dribble past two guys got caught in possession should have played it long, then he was Vought on camara complaining to Parrott Knight or ObafemiQuote:

More of the same please, without the stupidness at the back
Doherty for McClean,Omabamidele for Duffy and Festy for Browne.Quote:

Set up much better. Parrott and Obafemi playing as a central 2 actually running towards goal unlike ogbene running out wide into no man's land continously.Quote:

The full backs starting high on half way and forcing the 3 at the back to actually work across the whole pitch instead of lazily sitting deep and narrow.
Kelleher cutting out danger with quality sweeping and getting a strong punch on the dangerous corner
Holy god!!!
Delightful!!!!!!!!
What a strike!
Though I can't help wonder if Scotland have our goalkeeping problems of 18 months ago.
But we've been crying out for ages for someone to just have a pop at times, and that's what can happen
Superb strike, having a very good match.
OMG what a goal, the touch away after the tackle. He has such slick movement. Doesn't play or move like an Irish player.
What a Goal!!!! The mini Lewandowski !!!!
Everything about that from “FFS REF!!!” to “WELL HOLY GOD!”
One of the best Irish goals I've ever seen.
