Post Cyprus Match Reaction thread

[skitz3]

You know it's bad when you look to Northern Ireland for positives!

[co. down green]

I've been drinking and it doesn't make it any better



I'm lost and in despair

I've just started drinking, but i don't think its going to help.

Not one for knee-jerk reactions & and have been one of those who was willing to give Staunton a chance, but lets face it it's not working and its not likely to get any better under Staunton's leadership.

I've Been following Ireland for 24 years and this is the lowest point.

Rather than let it drag on for the whole campaign, i think the FAI need to move swiftly to terminate Staunton's contract and give a new manager the rest of the Euro campaign to re build.

It cannot be allowed to drag on past christmas.

Lets look at the positives the only positive I can come up with is I am very drunk and I will wake up tomorrow thinking this was all a nightmare. Then reality will set in which could lead to a never ending circle of drinking to forget. better that than having to remember that performance a horror show!

What is Aldridge saying? can anyone translate?

[Fergie's Son]

If you have an ounce of decency in your body Staunton, RESIGN NOW.
This is utterly disgraceful and you are responsible.

AGREED.

Get out now. Delaney out as well. Worst Irish Defeat that I can remember. Ever.

[Fear Manach]

Papers will have a field day,,,really wish i Dunphy was given a one night transfer to RTE.

And what about the people that appointed him?

[Réiteoir]

which Sunday papers does Dunphy write for if any?

[Leeza]

Why don't you wait a week, things could look very different then.

Bet you feel stupid now

[Fergie's Son]

He should do the honourable thing and just go.

[as_i_say]

i actually feel a bit sorry for stan. he is completely clueless, cannot string 2 words together, should NEVER have been appointed and is surrounded by idiot staff.

remember our team tonight was decimated by injuries but the starting 11 have a lot to answer for. I missed the game as i am currently in a world top 20 FIFA country where the tools dont even watch football, but i am presuming that it was a soulless performance.

to lose to cyprus is one thing but 2-5??? i mean just how-ive read numerous reports and i still cant understand it.

[skitz3]

The decison not to give interviews is a f*cking disgrace having been put through that sh*te we deserve answers and an apology!

[Guy Incognito]

Mick McCarthy got sacked after loosing the first two qualifying games last time round AND on the back of a decent world cup! Now, not that i'm a McCarthy lover or Staunton hater but why the double standards? Staunton out please!

[sligoman]

I feel sorry for the 2,000 fans who payed a lot of money to go out to the game. The 10,000 who went last time but didn't this year had a lucky escape.

[gustavo]

As has been said before the real villian of the piece is Delaney not Staunton

[as_i_say]

not surprised he didnt give interview-what would be the point-he CANNOT talk ffs.

[inexile]

The decison not to give interviews is a f*cking disgrace having been put through that sh*te we deserve answers and an apology!

i think that is actually the worst thing to come out of the night, if they cant be man enough to do an interview are they man enough to represent the country.

if results were good they would be rushing out of the dressing room to do interviews

[DeNiro]

Anyone fancy a protest outside the FAI or at squad training in Malahide during the week?

[skitz3]

I've been boycotting our games for a while!

[Condex]

I think this is lowest we've sunk in 30 years...
I don't think Staunton is the person to get us out of it

Teams can be turned around but we need the right manager who has the respect of the players.. We beat Scotland easily at a low point 3.5 years and now thwey look a decent well organised side...
