This is dreadful. You'd think this was an end of season friendly.

I can see boos at half time. And would be hard to say not deserved.
Poisonous stuff so far.
No boos but the pretty much complete silence summed things up.Quote:

Not a criticism of Shane, more of management, someone tell him to stand up front, don't chase down a center back in 30 yards of space. Save your energy for when we have the ball.
Shocking first half performance and Georgia deserve to be ahead.
Once again our trademarks of no central midfield and no movement are there for all to see.
We just look utterly shapeless out there. Passes are 2 or 3 yards away from where they should be. We need Hoolohan out there.
Depressing stuff actually (when you look at the stats). Writing has been on the wall since Belgrade though.
And the penalty could have been given for the handball on the ground (near McClean) as opposed to what happened to Long.
I think we have resolutely failed Geysir's "signs of progress" test. That's just dreadful stuff, as bad as I've ever seen. I'm lost for words really.
I'm not surprised with the performance - and that upsets me more than anything ...
Atrocious stuff really.
In terms of personnel, attitude, or tactics, I can't think of even one positive.
It's just our Donut formation.™Quote:

Was offered free tickets for this and live 10 mins from aviva...couldn't be bothered.
You don't think it would make more sense to start Hoolahan behind Long and\or push Brady wide? And why can we not do that?
@coleman!
O NEIL'S a genius!!
...LOL
If that's the issue then blame the manager instead of nitpicking the players performance. He's been no better and no worse than any player in a green shirt out there.Quote:

2-2 Austria v Wales.
The commentator said it was Messi - but it was Coleman ............. (ESPN)
Pfff so lucky.
Papering over some massive cracks.
Yay though!
Great ball by Walters all the same.
Just a bit of pressing in the Georgians has made it a different game. Hope the second goal arrives.
Time to sit off and invite them on to us.
The Georgian's must feel like Kim Kardashian.
Yeah - I know I doQuote:

Long way to go yet. Very poor performance thus far.
Nah, that was scripted.Quote:

Just keep sitting deep then kicking the ball away to no one. Back to the aimless stuff. Does it ever change?
Last 5 minutes have been promising..
Acres of space left behind on Coleman's side more than once.
Whelan!
Poor Brady...
