3 points is all they really matters, will have more focus on the Slovakia/Russia game for tonight

Ireland just ain't ready for Leims class, hes not Trapattoni's sort of cm at all

I tell you what - the guy's as fit as a fiddle, very healthy looking. Wife was very pleased, a bit chuffed that Mick had a fan I think. I had already had 4 pints so I'm not sure I was as healthy looking as Mick.

Ah that's just marvelous. Mick presented awards at my football club one night almost 20 years ago now. My father, if Mick's name comes up, will still mention how much of a gent he was and how he happily posed for as many photos as people wanted that night. The photo of me, him and my brother is one of my most prized possessions.

Starting to quiver a bit now about this match....Come on Ireland

Coleman not named among the subs, Lawrence preferred. McCarthy and Westwood missing through illness. Trap Out etc.

Subs: Forde, Kelly, Long, Fahey, Hunt, Cox, Lawrence

Wow that's an ugly subs bench. Would like to have seen McCarthy on there.

Anyone have a link to a live stream? Looks like I'll be stuck in the office.

Fahey has more experience than McCarthy and has already scored a couple for Ireland. Hasn't really put a foot wrong since making his debut.
McCarthy hasn't set the World alight this season so I'm happy enough with that bench. I'd have Long in ahead of Doyle to start though

**Closed Account** · 07/10/2011, 7:11 PM

Alright, settled in pub. Not many here, should get busier. Did Keith Andrews to score first only because Doyle was too short a price.

Ireland 3-0

Can you access ESPN3 from there?

Some day today. I was with the missus staring into a shop window in London when this looper came up to me and started talking about some Andorra game. Seemed to think I was Mick McCarthy! Anyway to cut a short story even shorter I gave him a fiver as he seemed a bit unsteady on his feet. Can't go anywhere these days without.......

Oddly enough I cannot (I can watch most anything I want on the 'net from the office). ESPN 3 asks me for my ISP which I don't know as it routes through our HQ.

**Noelys Guitar** · 07/10/2011, 7:19 PM

Great stuff Stutts. Definete good omen.

I'd recommend just putting down Comcast and seeing if that works, I have Comcast and get ESPN3 so that should work.

Nice picture-in-picture feature too.

Bad need of a stream here lads, local pub has let me down badly. Cant access ESPN3.

**ken foree** · 07/10/2011, 7:28 PM

come on Ireland.

**theworm2345** · 07/10/2011, 7:28 PM

For those ESPN3-less folks I'd try these

Second one requires a download but its well worth it because its great quality but is likely to get removed part way through.
