Lashing down at the moment in Athens
This is my major concern as well but the silver linings are that they aren't injured and they have a point to prove.Quote:

Enough about Monday though - what about tonight?! :pQuote:

Let's see how it goes!
Vlachodimos
Hatzidiakos
Mavropanos
Tsimikas
Baldock
Kourbelis
Mantalos
Bakasetas (C)
Masouras
Pelkas
Pavlidis
I think I had Pavlidis once, very painful.
Hopefully Idah playing it frees up Ferguson to play higher up the pitch and if Idah can occupy the defence might free up space for Ferguson and Smallbone.Quote:

Kenny has won me over but this line-up is madness. Adam Idah? We'll be lucky not to lose by three goals. The FAI is a Mickey Mouse organization and we can't afford a real manager. Kenny needs to understand that this is a results business, and we can't be setting up to play like Modric and Pirlo are starting in central midfield for us.
Have a bad old feeling. We'll see. Battling to a one nil loss against France is one thing, bit this is going to show us where we really are.
Stadium is so empty! Decent team. Let’s go!!
Gate broken most fans still outside
a link to a stream would be welcome.
France winning already. There's one hope of an upset gone!
These guys are walking all over us. We have a massive gap in midfield by playing Idah so high.
Quite the save from Baz.
If the Irish backline could stop sticking their hands up looking for an offside when the ball needs to be dealt with that would be great
Greece are way, way better than us.
Bad start. C'mon get the gum off your cleats
Does Josh Cullen think he plays for Greece?
Record for corners in a half?
Ah here - that's hardly a peno?
Edit - hmm; thought it was against Bazunu but it's not. Balls
Oh dear
Did it hit his hand? Looked like a header on the replay I see.
Seven corners in the first ten minutes. Surely Kenny will resign after this shocker?
Dreadful first stretch. No impact on midfield, overrun on the flanks a few times, can't clear our lines. Deservedly behind. This could get very bad, very quick.
We looked completely unprepared to play and this is not a surprise.
Get going FFS
A horrible start,penalty all day aswell….
There’s the best of Idah and Ferguson. Potential to cause real problems. Good response. The early goal against might help in a weird way!
Hopefully he’ll resign at half time as we’ve been overwhelmed from the ko …. Clueless chancer…Quote:

Terrible stuff. Just couldn’t get a foot on it.
On a different note, it seems to me like the Greek fans are “booing” every time Idah is (and possibly Baz too) on the ball. Am I imagining that?
A bit better now. I wonder if the French game had their heads a bit inflated, the first 15 minutes it was like they turned up expecting Greece to roll over.
Whoa boy
