Does anyone have any method of viewing/accessing the match via broadband. I'm also in Oz won't be able to see it otherwise.Originally Posted by Kevin77
I know that RTE show some games but I understand that this is only valid if your ISP is in Ireland. Any idea on a proxy server to use to fake this?
TIA

Hunt looked injured/tired last night hence his performance last night. I don't want him getting too much stick!

Who are you his girlfriend??? He was very poor in comparison to the young lads. Mc Geady finally producing in an Ireland shirt who would have thunk it. All be it in a friendly.

Nobody was more keen for Aiden to produce in an Ireland shirt than the kid himself. Happy to see he finally looks to be at ease with the National Team.

Thought henderson Reid and Keane did well. Good for henderson after San Marino. Reid for MOTM, robbie got it though.

I wasnt overly impressed with Henderson. Dropped the cross in the 1st half
and took 2 more attempts to get it, looked like he had the eyes closed and
swinging his arms in hope.

Henderson made a few good stops, did ride his luck a wee bit though.
Keane was very lively, thought McGeady was excellent as was Reid.
What most impressed me though was the defending of the team as a whole, when we lost the ball we seemed to have an immediate 2 banks of 4 which Denmark had trouble breaking down. Admitedly Denmark were very poor, especially the keeper but we took our chances and it should be a huge confidence boost for the proper games coming up.

why yes yes I am.
I was trying to explain why he wasn't his normal self. He was clearly off the pace and his injury was obviously hampering him. We need him on the left next month.

Hasn't he been training recently with Paul Robinson...?
Tact is for people who are not witty enough to be sarcastic
My tuppence:
Henderson- 6 (dodgy start but made some good saves)
Carr- 4 (constantly let Gronkjaer have a run at him)
Dunne- 7 (solid)
O'Shea- 6 (solid but still prone to an error or 2)
Finnan- 6 (out of position but ok)
McGeady- 7 (starting to build a bit of confidence)
Reid- 8 (what a classy left-peg this guy has)
Potter- 7 (kept play moving, could be the heir to Carsley's position)
Hunt- 5 (disappointing)
Doyle- 5 (ditto - first touch was a real let-down)
Keane- 8 (a constant threat, hope he reproduces that next month)
Subs:
Keogh- 7 (out of position but linked well with Long)
Murphy- 5 (forgot he was playing at one stage!)
Gibson- 7 (looks a real prospect)
Long- 7 (never rated him before but was very impressed with his strength and finishing)
Kilbane- 5 (just not a CM)
Kelly- 7 (solid - good backup for Finnan/O'Shea)
"Well I think they'll be a little disappointed with that" - Matt Holland on TV3 after 5-2 drubbing by Cyprus
Is it not blatantly obvious to all including the last 3 Irish managers that Finnan cannot play on the left.He is by far the best right back we have and each manager and the press and everyone else thinks its ok to put Carr in ahead of him at right back.Carr is not good enough and finnan is ,but not at left back.It is a left back we need not fixing something that isnt broken ie moving Finnan.Finnan was our best player in the Japan world cup and what happened??As soon as Carr was supposed to be recovered he was dropped and Carr who ,I repeat is not up to it ,was put back in.
Stan get a left back even if its Kilbane. and stop messing with Finnan.
"You'll not see nothing like the Shelbourne team"
good man paddyI wonder how Reid celebrated? Maybe Stan let them stop off for burgers at the airport!

Fatty Reid is a 'special' player when he's fit and on form and I don't mean 'special' in the John O'Shea sense but special as in talented in a way we've been lacking for a long time.

For me it was a break through for Mc Geady and Henderson.
Gibson and Potter gavce me great hope also.
P.s the very nice people at ourweecountry will not let me join the forum.....charming isnt it ,considering I also support the northern irish squad ...the name dundalk guy was a big no no for them regardless of my church of Ireland roots....pathetic shower
They won't even let anyone view their site now. They must be livid after Stan played Gibson last night and he setup a goal.
Sad people.
