Sorry you're right. They'll clearly be hoping we draw with Russia. Outside of the three head to heads between the big three, theres four massive games that I think will have a huge say in the final outcome of the group.
Russia v Macedonia
Slovakia V Armenia
Ireland v Armenia
Macedonia v Slovakia
I think its almost certain that one of the big three will fall on their own sword in one of those matches. Macedonia v Slovakia particularly jumps out at me.
Home wins in the first 3, possibly all 4.
that would as well for me if it wasn't so late on....
I wouldn't disagree with that assessment but really, how many teams could go there, paint pretty pictures and tear the Macedonians apart without breaking a sweat?Quote:

Can't see Russia slipping up at home to the Macedonians.Quote:

I'm sure if there is anything at stake we'll do whats necessary against Armenia, but in a way, results could transpire that Armenia, by doing us a favour against Slovakia, could head to Dublin with something to play for.
Agree with Frenchy too, Macedonia v Slovakia looks a very possible upset.
Our game vs Slovakia is huge. Biggest game we've had since Skopje.
That's a bit too obvious, Kingdom.Quote:
