Nah, Tets is right.
Given what we had the last day available to use/us, I would accommodate Robinson and Doherty in that starting 11. Coleman has come on leaps and bounds which he admitted himself in terms of his defensive ability and is no longer dragging the arm on the attacking player. He is a much better defender than he was 3 or so years ago. Duffy was immense the last day, I don't think anyone could deny that. Lets see if he can continue that and playing ball, wasn't his misplaced header that setup the danish striker(who made another hames) which had slighted keogh. But he definitely seems to be going in the right direction.
On stutts point, i was saying robinson has looked good. McGoldrick has done well for us, bar the first 45 mins the last day. There are lots of other positives which have been consistent. Not one cross in a nothing away friendly by some player to be getting giddy about.

And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
Nah, Tets is right.
I wouldn't be too fussy about that. The point was that they were all over us for that 15/20 minute spell in the second half and were opening us up, almost at will. I remember looking at the clock at 60 minutes thinking there's no way we're going to hold out. I certainly wasn't thinking if Denmark score it might click us into gear.
Denmark, the arrogant feckers assumed God was on their side because of their undoubted superior ability and a one goal victory was destined. Ironic though that it was a typical MON era pressure stunt of a goal that salvaged the result.
I think the example of Coleman sums up the difference between Paul O'Shea and gesyir. For POS, he was always an accident waiting to happen, a penalty in the making, no matter how many years it took to happen. For geysir, Coleman was a lucky defender who got away with the odd shirt-tug. When Coleman did finally give away a penalty when he was 27, it was vindication of Paul's worldview and he'd never tire of pointing it out. geysir, despite being proven right on several occasions, kept his counsel as you'd expect from a gentleman of the relaxed Icelandic persuasion. The lesson is, don't Paul O'Shea, not even once. You'll be happier and, more importantly, right.
Matt Holland almost scored a carbon copy of his Cameroon goal I remember
