When we see here in the news the Irish fan's they always sing: "come on you boys in green" or something like that.
What happens if you want to cheer a girl national team? will you sing: " come on you girls in green?

We're in MASH bar
We're going to watch the England game here and then head to the ground at 18:00
Come on in and join us for the craic.
Murphy's and Murphy's Red in abundance.
Last night in Buzz Stop was one of the best nights I've ever had at an away game. We'll probably be there again tonight.
It's next to the famous Mikes Place.
I may organise another crowd surfing session since it was so popular last night. I never knew pushing people off a table could be so much fun.
I never knew so many people would want to be pushed.

This is the life.
Lets get the right result now.
The totty here is stupendous!

we could have won
we deserved a penalty kick in the first half
and we had 3 huge opportunity to score on the second half
ireland waste time all the game and you got your punish on the last minute of the game
too bad israel didnt won
also i think if benayun had better day,there was no doubt about an israeli winning

Come on , we tied the score in the 90th minute and your talking about winning ?
Both teams didn't play well !

**boysingreen** · 27/03/2005, 3:25 AM

Both teams were useless. As bad as Ireland were, you'd need to be on something to suggest that at any point Israel looked like they were going to win the game. I don't recall anything that looked even remotely like a penalty for Israel. The only chance Israel got, and it took a great strike at that, they scored.

From team selection, to tactics, Ireland were looking for a draw. The question every fan is asking themselves is why we as favourites were lookiong for a draw. It has to do with Ireland's tendency, only God knows why, of never winning on the road against anyways decent teams. We have a conservative coach, many saying after today's match, far too conservative. You add it all up and you get what you saw today. Ireland scoring early and holding possession, defending, and essentially waiting for Israel to score all game. Israel nearly waited too long, but as the Irish commentator panel said themselves, Ireland got what they deserved.

If you play for a draw, you get a draw.

**Yigal** · 27/03/2005, 10:10 AM

Well, Israel did deserve a penalty, but don't forget that Ireland also deserved one. Both teams didn't play a good game, maybe Israel was a little better in the second half, but I think that the result reflects the way of this match. Israel didn't deserve to lose, Ireland didn't deserve to win.
However, this tie serves Ireland better than Israel, as we, Israel, still have to play in Dublin. Hope we can surprise you...

And, obviously, it's a good thing that France and Switzerland also drew a tie...

Guys, it's been a real pleasure hosting you in TA, you're great guests! Hope you'll treat us the same way when we'll come to Dublin!

**Eldad** · 27/03/2005, 10:34 AM

Israel has only one home match to play and it is against the Faroe Islands.
Ireland will play against Israel, France & Switzerland in Dublin!

France hasn't score an home goal yet!

Israel has to play at home against France and Faroe Islands, and away vs us, Switzerland & Faroe Islands.

**colblimp** · 27/03/2005, 11:41 AM

I have to say, when Israel equalised my joy was unconfined! It's no less than you deserve lads!

COME ON ENGLAND!!

**onenilgameover** · 27/03/2005, 12:40 PM

Thats a wind up Tuff Paddy I wouldn't rise to a spoon like that. England won't win anything cos referee's don't like em and they can't take penalties.

**burning soil** · 27/03/2005, 4:21 PM

I hope u had great time in Israel,thx for coming.

**Condex** · 27/03/2005, 5:33 PM

I was in this cafe come bar at about 6pm before the game on Allenby St. and there was this red haired paddy in there who was so drunk he had to be helped to the toilet by the cafe owner who also had to light his fags.

Her didn't make the game in the end, slept it off in a corner of the cafe, great ambassador for Ireland this man was..

Had a fantastic time (i'm never drinking again) Very friendly people and the babes were out of this world. I hope you will join us in Dublin so we can repay the fantastic hospitality thet the Israelis showed us.

Tel Aviv rocks

There were a good proportion of them in Paris as well, it was like they'd never seen alcohol before.

two old boys (irish) had to be pulled apart in Joeys bar this morning, you would think these guys who be old enuf to have more sense.

Met a guy from the embassy at the airport and he said there was not a single arrest which is as it should be.
