Lads a result is a result. It was bound to be a scrappy game it being San Marino. I'm not worried about the performance, just as long as we win.

You are way too optimistic. Are you actually watching it? Its embarrassing and shameful, its basically shows us how woefully inept we actually are under this "manager" Its a reality check. McShane is dying to get on the score sheet. Whats the bets Alan O'Brien comes on for Duffer... That would be the cherry on my cake:rolleyes:
On a lighter note from bbc.co.uk
2052: The action resumes in San Marino. A win, or even a point, would see the Republic of Ireland climb above Latvia into fourth spot in Group F.
That would be some achievement
You obviously havtn given Stan enough time. OK a year might seem a lot but considering we havnt played too many games under him we need to give him time. What good is it getting on his back, we all know the FAI wont sack him. Do you really expect a top performance with the team thats out. No Given, O'Brien, Kavanagh, Doyle etc. There are players to come back who will make the side better. Also theyoung players on tonight will get a bit of experience for them in the future
I'm not watching tonight, but I am listening and I have seen most of the games under Stan's reign.
In a nutshell, I think he is an adequate to mediocre manager in charge of a derth of talent. We're awful, but I don't think any other manager on the shortlist would have got any other points barring the Cyprus disaster.

Could someone tell me any of Staunton's redeeming factors? A retarded monkey could do better than that fool!
This'll go down as one of San Marino's best results EVER, just second behind their 1-0 win over the mighty Liechtenstein.
Staunton has been very, very poor. I have yet to see anything that impresses.
Walk me through what he has done right?
1-1:(
:o
SACK STAUNTON!!!
SWEET FANCY MOSES!:eek:
Please leave Stan.
Oh no.
This is unreal.
He HAS TO BE SACKED. HE MUST GO.
Enough is enough.
Jebus wept !! :eek:
What a joke:mad:
I'll never live this one down.
Ade
Mortified absolutely mortified. Thank fck I'm in the states nobody knows any better.
sickened, just sickened.
Stan - go.
I just hope he has the self respect to go straight after the match
has to get the sack now
bbc.co.uk:
Take Delaney with ye StanQuote:
2129: GOAL San Marino 1-1 Republic of Ireland
If you thought England were doing badly check out that scoreline.
He won't resign.
He should but he won't.
I am flying back for the first match in Croker but why bother now.
This is depressing.
Sweet Jesus :o
I don't take much notice of FIFA World rankings but that has to be us down 10 to 20 places.
Delaney can sod off as well
I hope Delaney is happy now.............. Go Stan...
Are San Marino the worst team in Europe?
Chance after chance goes begging.
I'd wager this will be the most embarassing sporting result of my lifetime. And this is coming from a Nottingham Forest fan who was at the 8-1 game.
Ade
He can take most of the clowns on the pitch with him.
Never mind Staunton out, what about the muppets that appointed a manager whose experience amounted to putting out training cones and cutting the half-time oranges at an English lower league side.
Delaney out.
Stauntons interview after the game will be.............. interesting
he shouldnt be allowed bak into this country !
Lads, if he doesnt quit or is sacked... nobody should go to another f**king game... seriously... this is f**king footballing suicide.
:eek: :confused::mad:
Pile of sh!te
worse than being beaten by cyprus
I'd say you're mincing your words now.At 1-0 it always felt dodgy, especially given our track record... And I'm not surprised its happened.:rolleyes: It was never a question of time, it was a question of calibre, and Stan has never had it. It's been a joke ever since he was appointed but its not funny anymore and we should all be fully justified in calling for his head. Get the whole fcuking regime out, this IS A NEW LOW. Forget Liechtenstein and Cyprus... You can't possibly get worse than this. I'm so thouroughly ashamed.
Gentlemen
This is what your "World Class Manager" delivers
I rest my case
yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss:D
