1 - 1 draw tonight, Bulgaria going in front and a battling comeback by Ireland saves blushes.

0 - 0 Moral victory in Bari on Wednesday

Discounting the Slovak - Czech doubleheader, as that era was marked by incompetence and we were going nowhere fast under Stan, this week has to be the biggest week for Irish football in years, maybe since 2002 WC. A bright future or darkness and gloom await.....

Ireland 1 Bulgaria 0
Italy 1 Ireland 0

Would love to be in Dublin today cheering on the team, but will be doing me bit in Bari.

Please god no, really dont want the team falling behind again. Vital we start strong this time and keep things tight at the back throughout. Clean sheet please and a win should follow.

This must be nearly the first time that Trap hasnt announced his team early, I wonder if he is gonna throw in a surprise??

ah i can just imagine it now, croker floodlights shine down on a mysterious round shaped figure as he slowly walks to the pitch, aerosmiths 'I don't want to miss of things' blasts out over the sound system...a light shines on the figures face, it is none other than andy reid...he glances at trap, who nods back in cautious approval..before woddling onto the pitch to lead ireland to victory.

Although I think we have a strong team well organised by Trap, I just don't believe we have the ability to boss a game & dictate the pace. So if the Bulgarians come out all guns blazing we might struggle. But of of course I hope not!

Id settle for Andy Reid on the wing and Steven Ireland in the middle

the team was announced last night:
Given, McShane, Dunne, O'Shea, Kilbane, McGeady, Whelan, Andrews, Hunt, Doyle, Keane.

Ok here we go, heading off to croker now. Tonight could really set us on our way, heres hoping!!! Its been a while since we've won a big game at home so hopefully tonight is the night.
Nervous night ahead but i think we'll just about do enough to win, probably relying on a Keane goal again!

Great keep the streaming options coming, here in switzerland hoping for the best.

radio 1 has game, also usual places like justintv and iraggoals can be useful,

I predict 2-1 ireland, and 1-1 in bari.

Come on you boys in green !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
