Homer did it ever occur to you to let go of the Candy?
superb defensive display tonight, Dunne, St Ledger, O'Shea all fantastic. Duff was excellent in the first half, Folan a real postive tonight. Game on........
Holy sh1t that was nerve-wrackingBulgaria are poor.. great result for us though
that'll do.. very ugly, or should we say "italian".
zombie/thread killer..
st. ledger was talismanic... for his first competitive game in a hostile environment under constant pressure... class alongside dunne

Ireland played with great spirit again. Folan, JOS, Dunne, Duff were standouts - the entire team played well really.
Trapp is extracting every ounce of potential from this team.
Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder
St Ledger very very good
Dropped too deep though for my liking
Dunne is a national hero

That'll do lads. Totally outplayed but defended well and limited them big time. Andrews chased everything but was generally a split second off the pace, Whelan useless as usual. Folan could barely move at the end he tried so hard, had nothing played all season so fair play. St Ledger is a monumental bonus for the rest of the campaign by the looks of him.
Happy enough with the point. Very impressed with St.Legder. Dunne was outstanding once again. Nerve wrecking stuff alright.
Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.

Great result. Great defending. Bulgaria resorted to long shots for most of the second half. I think the team were just forced back second half. I don't think Trap wanted them to sit back as much hence bringing on McGeady.
All roads still lead to SA. Lots of talk of Italy in Croker but Cyprus away is banana skin.

amen to that
best stream ever.
starting to think about playoffs.....
Good result, but am I the only one who thinks that was 2 points dropped? We played well up to our goal, and Bulgarians were there for the taking. Disappointed overall.
cyprus away should be ok
1-0 there
play offs should be made

i was more disappointed after Bulgaria home
Bulgaria have Italy away left
now play off is a probability

Good result in the end.
I thought duff had a good game, battled hard as did hunt. O'shea, Dunne and st.ledger all defended well. While folan and keane did as much as they could up front, the service was non-existent.
We just couldn't keep possession and ended hoofing it aimlessly. We sat back too much aswell. There was nobody supporting the strikers so there was little they could do.
For all their possession, Bulgaria didn't have many clear cut chances. Berbatov should have scored when he tried to control the ball as opposed to heading it.
Great atmosphere created by the Bulgarians. There was a good Irish following too.
Happy as a pig in ****e
You'l never beat the irish !!!!
First half very positive attacking display
second half very good defensive performance especially dunne absolutely unreal display duff was very positive which was good to see,folan has nice touch and held it up well but id still start doyle
kilbane was very poor for the goal and the centre mids were annoynomous imo..overall good result poor attacking performance in second half
very harsh assessment
