We have 438, how many are needed to get rid of Staunton do you think?

Stan is in for the Wales game, end of story. This can only act as a negative for team moral ahead of the game so please leave it.
<insert witty remark>
Just 1. John Delaneys.
So, who are you?Delaney, Robson, Gavin or Micko?
And they will find out about it if I just get it signed at the gate to get in to Croke before the match?

Nah just one of the few remaining grounded Ireland fans who hasn't been swept up in the fervour which the media wish to create.
I suggest you put your efforts into backing the team for the Wales and Slovakia games or if not, don't show up at all.
<insert witty remark>
Or Cathal Dervan?
Delaney so.
Yeah, if I'm not a fan of baying for the blood of most capped player I must be FAI.
I didnt realise it had become so inappropriate to want to get behind your team in times of predicament. My mistake, I apologise and sorry for wasting your valuable time. I wont keep you from your daily Sun any longer.

I don't read the Daily Sun, I read the Guardian.Not that that makes a bleeding bit of difference.
Beavis that shi*e you're shovelling would be understandable if we had a one off poor result or even if we had a couple of bad results but surely after experiencing 3 of our poorest performances in the post war period in the past 5 games we are entitled to a moan. To equate us to the English is nonsense. If we had their mentality then Staunton would have gone after the Dutch defeat and would now be a distant memory.
Here lads tell you what let's all just keep smiling like idiots then and be happy when Wales and Slovakia trounce us.
Beavis you are the type of person who allowed Hitler to exterminate a large percentage of the population of Eastern Europe because you didn't want to create a racket and upset the German troops. And no I don't think I'm going too far with this analogy.

That's quite a distinguished list of signatories that feature on the petition.
Hitler, Sven Goran Erikson, Ryan Giggs, Brian Kerr, Jack Charlton, Roy Keane and even Steve Staunton himself appears a couple of times.
Hitler, being a Germany fan, is really going the extra mile for us.
all credit TO over-reactions.
I
in fairness you are going waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy too far comparing him to a Nazi sympotiser!
beavis may be blinkered in the extreme but thats about it. i personally thought after the cyprus game to give him a bit more time. we saw marginal improvement against the Czechs and should of won so fire was held. but the debacle in san marino is inexcuseable espically when it comes so close on the heels of cyprus and holland hammering.
added to our falling seeding and MOST importantly the real sense that Stan hasn't got a clue what he is doing. fair enough he is our most capped player but that doesn't make him a good 'gaffer'. he has one component in that he has loads of experience of international level football but he appears to have nothing else; tactical nous, ability to express his ideas to the players (he can't even make sense in an interview so i doubt he is much better in the dressing room), ability to motivate his charges. name the managers who are recognised as the best of recent times and a lot of them had fairly insignificant playing carreers in comparison: alex ferguson, bill shankley, jock stein, arsene wegner, jose mourino ... so it is only one spoke in the wheel to have a distinguished career in your playing days.
this crap about building for the future is all well and good but the only signs from this team is of terminal decline and not improvement. therefore thanks for the playing career and memories stan but now is the time to make the correct decision for the country and step aside and let someone who knows what their doing take the job.
actually beavis what will it take for you to think that maybe 'da gaffer' should go??
Beavis, I'm a UCD fan so I don't think I can be accused of glory-hunting or bandwaggon-jumping. I'm happy to cheer on UCD when we're loosing and I'll give the odd player a bolliking if I think he deserves it. The difference is that when I see UCD get hammerred I'm still watching players who do their best and take pride in their efforts. That's not what we saw in San Marino last week. The players, management and administration are due criticism and they should be man enough to take it.Yeah, if I'm not a fan of baying for the blood of most capped player I must be FAI.
