I guess we won't be top seeds;)
Either pot C or more likely D for the next campaign.

i think D :eek: :mad: :mad: :mad:
Cccccccccc
at least we cant be drawn with the Swiss again.
I'd just want to avoid the Dutch, IMO they are the only current European side that is world class
Pot D is what the guys on RTE were saying:(
We're definitely in the 4th group of seeds after last night. Its going to be a long time before we see a major tournament again.

Teams from the 4th pot have made it through before but we drastically need some midfielders
pot b and c don't scare me other than the spanish and i think i'm right in saying two teams qualify automatically for the euros???
... in the píss pot after last night
7 in each group with the top 2 qualifying automatically. No more playoffs.Quote:

Some people here need a bit of cop on. We'll be in PotD by the looks of things.
A potential team of
Given, Finnan, Dunne, O'Brien, Harte(?)
Alan Quinn, Steven Reid, Andy Reid, Damien Duff
Robbie Keane, Stephen elliot
with the right manager, the right tactics and in the case of one or two a kick up the whole(!), could do veryw ell in a group of :
Germany,
Romania,
Norway,
Eire,
Iceland,
Cyprus,
San Marino
Obviously the draw will dictate what our chances are.
On the flip slip of that we could get a group with:
Holland,
Italy,
Eire,
Ukraine,
Albania,
Belarus,
Kazakhstan.
I don't think we'll be as bad off as everybody thinks.
I'd take
England
Greece
Slovakia
Ireland
Lithuania
Moldova
San Marino
what we really need to f*ckin sort out is WINNING our home games.....you could nearly always assume we would do that
To be honest lads, I think the whole seeding thing is a load of p1ss. We can always beat teams better than us or at least draw if we are properly motivated, a proper manager and all the players are fit.
I think its more cooking pot than melting pot now :(
A win last night would have got us into Pot C.
Actually, Greece may be top seeds. Anyone know?
Just got confirmation that Greece are top seeds so edited above seedings.
D as presumed :rolleyes:
Our expectations will be much lower in this qualification so maybe we'll do better...;) :D
Anyone know when this craic starts?? :ball:
AFAIK draw is in January and qualifiers start in September 06
just checked uefa.com - draw is in early january 2006
aye qualifiers are always just after the world cup, just wasn't sure about the draw, bring on Kazhakstan! :eek: :DQuote:

I know that what we did this timeand didnt work out BUT normally a team has a come down after the work cup
