It's just asking for trouble,"if in doubt hoof it out". (that actually rhymes!!).

What game was it, tricky? It's annoying me now. I think Giles was in charge...?

You know i really think Trap should think about his job and see that's there's nothing left to learn from this game really with them down to 10 men. He should bring on the best attacking setup and just hammer them for the rest of it. It would be a good mindset to the get the team into before the Faroes game because our group could very very likely come down to Goal difference, and next Fridays the last chance for us to get a decent number on the scoreboard....arhrgrhg

Good run and dangerous ball in by McClean. Not sure what the keeper was trying to do...

2-0 made in Hoolaland, good finish from Cox, thought he put it in the side netting at first.

I don't know, I assumed you did, but I know exactly what you mean, I am not sure if Roy Keane did one once, I am sure he
did? In a major championship??

Away game - we were either 3 nil up or 3-1 up with 10 mins to go and it ended 3-3. I think it was Norway or similar!

I'm at forbidden fruit lads.

Can ye summarise?

Hoolahan's mobility is a real breath of fresh air. Some great passing and movement from him. He's even won a few balls. As Stutts highlighted, he's doing a better job than Whelan in Whelan's position.

McClean puts some real poor balls in sometimes, does not get enough height on them, a bad habit.

Long should have 5 by now. That last miss was a bit like a miss against Austria. Costly it was too.

I feel bad for all the years we (& he!) have missed out.

Long got stopped on a breakaway early, their keeper got kicked out early. Keough scored on a header.

Is there a babel fish app to translate American soccer talk?

keane 3-0

Keano. McG needs to do more of that.

3-0. Robbie adds another to his tally.

Sammon reminds me of me. So uncoordinated he's actually dangerous to the opposition's health.

I'll second that. And he's moody like you too.

And the burning question that will surely be on the front page of all the world's newspapers monday morning:
Where does Georgia go from here?

Nice play by Hendrick

Call me an old curmudgeon, but have we ever won 4-0 so unimpressively?
