Yeap.
And the future looks bleak, very bleak.
We always knew this day was coming but really is p*sh now it has.
I think we are going to get a severe wake up call because of two or three questionable and backwards selection decisions and it will be too late to get anything out of the campaign after this Sunday.
I hate to be as pessimistic as Ardee but we can't have passengers playing in three... potentially four crucial positions and expect to get anything out of this game.
Best case scenario... the draw we invariably end up playing for and the inevitable fist pumps and back slaps after the game.
Yeap.

Predict a statistically likely outcome
Add cloud of ambiguity
Add pessimism or optimism as suits the mood
Claim to be vindicated afterwards
= astrology
I'm gonna be traveling during the game on Sunday and it's not on TV in the US so can't record it. Does anyone know if the games are usually available to download anywhere shortly after games?
Its really not that complicated!!!

Why the gloominess? Our players don't play at an inferior standard to that of their Polish counterparts. It'll be a tight game with neither side being over-run.
A lot like the Scots so
Going to end up watching this through my fingers.

Feck. It never seems to run smoothly. Is the team starting to pick itself a bit?
Forde
Coleman
O'Shea
Clark
Wilson
McGeady/Walters
Whelan
McCarthy
McClean (McGeady if Walters on right)
Hoolahan
Two from Hoolahan/Keane/Long/Walters
If the outcome is not as predicted, then all one has to do to claim vindication is to put the blame on the unexpected arrival of Lady Luck onto the scene, who intervened to alter the natural course of events.
Balls!
Martinez strikes again!
Evidence please.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
International football claims another victim.
At this rate, Arter might be a St. Arter by default.
Gibson's absence won't be a disaster if it means Wes starts.
Not sure they were really playing for the same spot.
Chaps don't forget about the Irish going tomorrow night vs Witchita state. Notre Dame will get the good vibes going for you. Slight underdogs on the vegas line.
No Somos muchos pero estamos locos.
That's besides the point Charlie, logic only goes so far when it comes to us starting with players of technical ability, it's rare that we will have one, never mind two starting, therefore Stutts' statement holds weight
I can't say I'm too excited atm about what we are going to bring to this game. It's more a case of 'show me what you've got, MON'.
Like a few here, I'm of the opinion that we have the players for a team that can do it at this level, hopefully it will take shape against Poland.
A win will set our qual campaign in full swing.
