    second worst team to draw for us IMO. Second leg at home is a bonus.

    looks like it, stadium capacity is only 15,600 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilino_Polje_Stadium
    under UEFA rules, they have to provide 5% to away fans = 780

    Yes but Slovenia got Ukraine. I want Slovenia at EURO 2016, it gives Ireland a chance at Pot 3 instead of Pot 4 for the group draw, if we make it.

    Or the third best seriously though, they haven't really done anything of note. Sweden going poorly but have more pedigree overall and are serial qualifiers. Flip of a coin between those two really and gun to my head I would have preferred Bosnia I think. Not so sure being at home in the second leg is an advantage for us, but I'll bow to the superior knowledge of the general consensus on that one.

    I'm with Del on this. Would always prefer away leg second. Knowing us we'll play for the draw in Bosnia then lose on away goals.

    Anyway, it could have been much much worse.

    Looking at their squad. By and large a similar level to ourselves. Nothing to fear

    I think it's a decent draw. It's there to be won

    We may as well start booking our trips for France, even with our limited management staff and dodgey defence we will stroll the play offs.

    Euro 2016 here we come.

    Conceded less goals than any other team in our group. Took 4 points off the world champions as well. Not a bad effort for a team with a dodgy defence and a limited manager.

    Says a lot for poor old SSL when he can't even get into Irelands dodgy defence.

    Some analysis of our outlook for next summer based on the bookie's odds as an objective source.

    That's a close one to call. B&H are OK, but nothing special overall. Over the two games, there was very little between us and them. They did have injuries throughout the group though. Dzeko was not fit for the second game which they won 2-0 despite us edging the game statistically. Having watched the Republic a few times in this campaign too I feel safe in predicting there won't be more than the odd goal in it. It's probably like that pie chart suggests in that there is a decent chance for you to qualify but B&H are slight favourites, however, I disagree that the prospects of a good draw are poor from pot 4 - potentially some very reasonable sides to be drawn from pots 2 and 3.
