Thats exactly what they will do as well. The idiot should have kept his thoughts to himself. Never like seeing that. Thankfully Trap is the polar opposite and will show the right level of respect to Estonia.

First leg has been confirmed by the FAI as Friday November 11th in Tallinn, with the second leg at the Aviva on Tuesday 15th.

Speaking after the draw, Republic of Ireland manager Giovanni Trapattoni said, ‘It is extremely positive for Ireland that we will play the first leg away. We should not underestimate our opposition, or any team, including Estonia, to have made it through to the play-off, they must have quality and mental fortitude. Our build up to this stage of the competition has shown us the importance of organisation, attention to detail, and self-belief. That will be vitally important to us as we prepare for these games in November."

Good luck Estonia but you haven't a hope.

And anyone who doesn't think that having the Republic qualify for a tournament.....right now..isn't a bad thing for OWC, isn't looking at the big picture.

What a bunch of dicks we are, and what a disgrace those 2 performances against Estonia were. Look what we have done!!

When, not if, the thieves qualify every half decent but non England squad English players who's granny has had a pint if Guinness will be jumping on the bandwagon. Should a couple of Kevin nolans etc come on board the chances of a young teenager from Derry ever making the Mexican team is greatly reduced thus perhaps swaying them back to the good side.

I was just about to ask if anyone knew about their top players. And to be honest, my ignorance would have presumed 'Amkar Perm' was something Russian auld ones got done to their hair so y'learn something new every day.

On an unrelated note, given Shamrock Rovers' experience of playing in the hostile Le Coq Arena, now has to be the time to call up Toronto-born Alan Mannus :)

Either 11 or 12 Nov. Presumably so more games get shown on telly. I imagine the time won't be known until the day is known.

Coincidentally enough, it might be Estonian legend Mart Poom..
