Alright everyone, so many of you who post and contribute to this forum have had your say,its down to the nitty gritty, whether you are of a positive nature or negative nature its time to put your head..not your heart on the block...give me (us, all) your result for the game. I am going for a win 2-1, maybe 1-0, 'cos I really do believe we will win as anyone who has seen my posts over the last couple of weeks will concur with. SO Peader, Jollyrodger, Plastic(don't frog with me) Paddy, Zinedineontour, Sligoman,Davie etc,etc,etc. Your score please and with your HEAD not your HEART!!!

**Superhoops** · 07/09/2005, 3:24 AM

0-0 draw

**Volc�n Masaya** · 07/09/2005, 5:34 AM

I've a feeling it's going to be a real close affair.

Ireland 2-14
France 1-16

**Sligo Hornet** · 07/09/2005, 5:59 AM

1-0 to The Boys in Green!!............scrappy very hard fought / lucky WIN!

**loscherland** · 07/09/2005, 7:53 AM

another draw... 1-1

**beautifulrock** · 07/09/2005, 7:54 AM

one nil to us, with a number of heart stopping moments to endure

**Giuly** · 07/09/2005, 7:57 AM

2-2, a good draw but at least a few goals

**lofty9** · 07/09/2005, 8:09 AM

A win for Ireland. 2-0. I think this France team is seriously overrated based on their performances in the last 4 years. We have nothing to fear if we play at a high tempo, the crowd will get stuck in too and it'll be a great night. No worries!

**thejollyrodger** · 07/09/2005, 8:13 AM

scoring Draw as well.

I cant see it just being 1 a piece. so 2-2

**gustavo** · 07/09/2005, 8:26 AM

1 all zidane penalty and robbie keane goal.

**Karlos** · 07/09/2005, 8:27 AM

Heart says Ireland, Head says draw or worst case France win.

If our defending greatly improves on previous home games vs Israel and Italy then I strongly fancy us. We have a good historical home record (inc. friendlies) but in recent competitive big games we are looking less and less effective at home (Switzerland, Russia, Israel). No better way to address that decline than winning tonight.

**Drumcondra Red** · 07/09/2005, 8:44 AM

2-1 win, is my gut feeling, but how often do we score more then one against quality opposition, although I also thikn the French are a bit overrated, although Terry Henry

Is still there to cause trouble!!!

**tiktok** · 07/09/2005, 8:48 AM

1-0 or 2-1 to us.

I didn't think France looked that good at the weekend, and they looked sh!t after Zidane came off. Everything went through ZZ, so let Kilbane get in his face all game long and we don't have to worry.

Keane owes us a goal against decent opposition and if Morrison plays tonight liken he did for that first half hour in Paris, we'll do very very well.

**Reality Bites** · 07/09/2005, 8:53 AM

3-1 to france, that spanish game from what was it 91 all over again.. makes me feel less nervous being a pessimist!!!

**paul_oshea** · 07/09/2005, 8:55 AM

i have a bad feeling we will give away a penalty. so it all depends on whether we can recover from that. im going for a draw, but something in the back of my mind says otherwise!!

**paul_oshea** · 07/09/2005, 8:56 AM

reality bites that game was 93!

**swinfordfc** · 07/09/2005, 9:15 AM

Think it be 1-1 draw but switzerland or israel slipping up elsewhere

**Yellowbelly** · 07/09/2005, 9:27 AM

Hi All,

I reckon a win is on the cards. Important not to concede early. These guys are not as good as Holland or Portugal in 2001. Kerr is due a big one.

Cheers,

S

Israel are never going to lose against the islanders.. a draw perhaps a shock up there but a win at home.

Switzerland are faulting and I wouldnt be surprised if they lost a few games via Ireland and France..

We could be humilated tonight though , its all too close to call.
