    That's the way to do it lads

    Slovakia 2-5 Wales. Sounds nice doesn't it?

    Actually to be fair, Slovakia are a good team and the scoreline flattered us totally. Funnily enough it was the exact opposite of what happened in Cardiff. They dominated but couldn't finish, we scored on the break.

    We were indebted to a few top class performances and a pathetic Slovakian 'keeper. In fact, this game contrasted to the one in Cardiff could be held up as scientific evidence that karma does indeed exist. And also that attacking football gets you nowhere. Just sit back and you'll get flukey wins.

    Nonetheless, we'll take that.

    Here's hoping you beat the Czechs to keep our mathematical chances of qualifying alive.

    No chance of that mate sorry 1:0 to the Czechs, probably end up 10-1
    You still have more chance of qualifying than us. We have Stan as manager.

    And we have Toshack. Both our managers are much maligned. I don't think either are 'bad' managers as such. Just in international football, your mistakes get magnified times a million. The fact is neither of us have that great squads, so we'll have good days and bad days but usually won't have enough consistency to do anything meaningful on the international stage.

    My opinion of course.

    I'd swap them any day. Any man who discards Robbie Savage is a legend in my books. Toshack knows his football. Staunton doesn't know how to spell football.
    As Irishmen we dilute our sense of nation by depending on the English to bring us our balls

    No, Slovakia are a brutal side, which has been confirmed tonight. It only magnifies what an abysmal effort Saturday night was
