    ireland to qualify, definitey. The buzz before the world cup the country gets .... the count down to the games.... cant beat it....

    still though i must confess that "my club" is based in English Premiership (like many in ireland) and as i have no real connection with them its not a hard choice to chose Ireland to qualify.

    still wud be nice to see liverpool win the league after so long!

    Well its a choice between a team i have a huge passion for or a team that i try to have an affinity for but feel left cold by visiting Lansdowne.


    City all the way

    Both! Town to win the league and Eireann to qualify for Germany. I'm entitled to choose both because both are realistic aspirations.

    Sure Shels will win the league regardless of what I pick

    Now if the question was qualify for the champions league or qualify for the world cup it might be a different story, and I'd go with Shels I have to admit, not that I'm anti the Irish team mind you, both happening would be nice.

    Country, without a shadow of a doubt. Anything Irish I'm up for. No matter how much I hate a someone/something (Ronan Keeting comes to mind), I always want the Irish to succeed on a worldwide scale. Don't ask me why, I think I get it from the oul' lad who'd only watch a sport if Ireland were being represented.

    Country by some distance, league for Man City would be a small miracle, qualification for the World Cup would make my year.

    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.

    Country by a long way. Could never see any club replacing the Ireland team in my list of priorities.

    Is there any Cork fan that would choose country over club? What is it with Corkmen and that shít hole of a "city". Joke, joke...

    Theres no affinity in club football.George O'Callaghan,Kevin Doyle etc would transfer to the mediocrity of Scottish Football in an instant if the oppurtunity arose.International football is the only true passion,no money or career motives involved(exceptions!).I'm all for the promotion of the league but there's just no comparison.
