    Well its a World Cup thats far away, so yeah we will qualify. When its close by like in Germany we never qualify. im thinking we will qualify throuhg the playoffs after beating Greece thanks to a 86th minute Andy Reid strike in the second leg in Croker. now off to the bookies

    What odds are the bookies giving Ireland of qualifying anyway? I can't check because betting sites are blocked at work

    With Paddy Power we're 5-2 to qualify, 1-4 not to.

    Cheers, that sounds about right, I reckon we have an even money shot of getting 2nd and if we get 2nd we got an even money shot of winning the playoff

    Yeah reckon we'll pip the Bulgarians to 2nd in the group by the skin of our proverbials. Play-off's are dodge city so who knows. Anyway whatever happens it's going to be interesting times ahead - that Friendly against Serbia is going to be a thenstart of an era rather than the usual non-event.

    Remember that only 8 of the 9 groups get into the play offs though. It would be disastrous if we finished 2nd and didn't make the play offs.
    My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method, is love. I love you Sheriff Truman.

    sure if we don't qualify they'll probably transfer the tournament to Ireland and we'll qualify as hosts

    i dont think we will qualify , most likely just lose out in playoffs , or just lose out on the playoff place, a massive improvement though and deffo qualification for the next euros.
    Was he crazy!! Yeah , in a very special way , an Irishman.

    I think we will do it, I see that Trap has had instant success wherever he has gone and I think that it will be no different with Ireland

    After the last campaign its hard to be optimistic but surely it cant reach as low as last time. I would like to think we'll make the playoffs and who knows then, if we're playing well, we'd have a good chance.

    I'll be there, not sure about Ireland though, we'll do well to get 2nd and then win a play-off. Depends on Trapp getting the best from a pretty thin squad and our big players being on form and availible for all the games
