    Stan and the German delegation

    The Germans stated that there was no atmosphere at the Wales game. The pitch is too far away from the crowd. And we played crap. They have a point. But this type of nonsense from Stan will have no bearing on the result. Just shut up now Stan. Please

    What are you talking about Noely, has Stan joined the voices inside your head?

    The distance from the pitch wasn't the reason for the crap atmosphere against Wales, it was two crap teams with one playing particularly craply - us. We didn't touch the ball for about 25 mins in the second half. Hardly what'd induce a cauldron of noise.

    A bit like the Gottlieb Daimler Stadium in Stuttgart then, with its big running track round it.

    I think the funny bit was that Stan was convinced that this was coming from very high up, very very high up and he wasn't naming names, (probably couldn't remember anyway). The article goes on to name the names and mention that they are very very low down the ladder, the ticket tout and the ex cop.

    Good to see he has so little to worry him. Go Stan Go!

    Im sure the lads will be extra motivated now.
    I think I should the parachute, because I'm great.

    In fact, I think I should get both parachutes, in case one doesn't work.

    I know all managers come out with crap from time to time but Staunton using this as motivation is ridiculous - are they not motivation to represent their country at home to a big Football nation?

    He was the answer to the half time quiz, which elicited a decent round of booing.

    thats bad form. Ok let them know after the match or something but to just boo a guy who has 100+ caps for Ireland. Wrong. I want him out ASAP but I would never boo the man. Disgraceful

    Not bad form at all. People have very little opportunity to get across their view that they do not believe he should be the manager. When you have Delaney coming out saying that we stayed beyond for 20 mins in Prague as support of Stan, you really have to make your point clear with this crowd.

    Would agree with an ceannaire-i desperately want him out but would not boo him. he accepted a job that should never have been offered to him. its not his fault he was still reading ann and barry at the age of 25 but they are not the credentials of a manager.

    Did he really say this?? I hadn't heard that, what a lier. Must have been getting tips from Alister Campbell book of spin.

    As for booing on Sat, it wasn't that bad, I've heard worse. I think it's being blown out of proportion a bit by the media, same with the chanting after Doyle/Long sub.
