    The rendition of the song at the stadium was very enjoyable, certainly better than the Croatian dirge. Not sure if RTE showed it.
    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.

    I have to say, I was initially quite chagrined at how **** all of the efforts for a song for this tournament were. However, seeing as the team matched (or even "bettered") that effort on the pitch, I now think it is quite appropriate.

    I dunno. I don't think this one was attempting to either glorify or for that matter stick the boot into the team or it's prospects and yet some of it proved perhaps eerily prophetic

    (lyrics from the bands bandcamp page)
    "At one of those event dealie public urinals
    I asked a local how he thought we'd do in these finals
    don't know what your group opponents know but we've got you sussed
    you're gonna try and nick a goal then park the bus....

    Because you've no midfield and your key man plays
    at championship level in the USA
    where he never faces shackling and somehow now he must
    try to nick a goal before you park the bus"
    " I wish to God that someone would be able to block out the voices in my head for five minutes, the voices that scream, over and over again: "Why do they come to me to die?"
