Not too bad, I'm not sure I can see us scorin though a 0-0 would be a good result obviously. Think if we pose a threat going forward we may pin them back a bit. For that would like to see McGeady come on for Kilbane with Reid in CM (though I'd bet large amounts that wont happen)

Half time 0-0. 2 great saves from Given, but overall I am impressed with how we are defending. If we keep it up, we might get something out of the second half..

very impressive so far! we could sneak it.

Not sure I can handle 45 more minutes though!

i will still take the point

**cavan_fan** · 02/09/2006, 7:44 PM

and a 0-0 between Czechs and Wales would do too!

Looks promising so far it's certaintly not going to be another 4:0 (one hopes!!)
At times (start) you could be forgiven for mistaking us for the home side. Let's hope we can keep it up, or even nick a goal!!!

1-0 Germany... horrible deflection off keane. Unlucky as hell!

No effort being made in the final few minutes by most, putting on two players that have the upper body strength of a lettuce and expecting them to win hoofballs, Staunton morphing into something out of Prisoner Cell Block H, John O'Shea being an international....Priceless.
