    Watching it on Sky. According to the (Engish) commentator, one of the reasons Robbie is delighted with his 49th international goal is that it brings him level with Bobby Charlton's England record. FFS.

    O'Dea looking a bit cumbersome. Shay on his toes again to an Adam free-kick.

    To be fair, Robbie, for some reason, doesn't half go on about eclipsing Charlton's record as being his ambition.

    Fair play to McShane, he did well for the goal.

    Good half for Ireland. Noticeable fall back since the goal with Robbie dropping very deep. Delighted with Givens first half performance. Looks right back to the top of his game. McShane was great for the goal but gave two under hit back passes to Given. Ward doing OK at left back apart from once letting a ball go over his head. Cox looks a good player and has a good first touch.

    He does go on about that record and how it motivates him a fair bit, I saw him on with Pat Kenny and he mentioned it as one of the last boxes he wants to tick in his career.

    Fair enough Danny and Crafty - as the man with one short leg said to the orthopaedic shoemaker, "I stand corrected".

    I thought Ward took one very poor throw, straight to a opposition head at close quarters, and was lucky it came back to him, but immediately again chose a low percentage tight angled pass, and again gave it away.

    Keith Fahey isn't able to get a grip on midfield so far.

    Our defence looks very ropey in my opinion. They could be on 2 or 3 yellows in a real game. Distribution from the back is poor. Shay seems to be on decent form but I thought I caught a look in his eye that suggested he felt he was a bit lucky with the Bardsley shot. I think he was hoping to get a bit more on it than he did. Good save though.

    Tempo isn't quick enough for me. We had some good moments but no real pressure. 6/10 so far.

    Technically he would be breaking his own record.

    Second time Hunty and Cox have caught the Scots sleeping, must have some sort of Black Country connection.

    Foley on for O'Dea now as well. McShane moves into the centre of defence.
