Good man Ray

I can’t believe Raskin is on the pitch. His last two contributions have been to blooter a volleyed clearance into the stand under no pressure & then give it away on the edge of the box

He put in a great cross onto lukaku’s head but the big man couldn’t adjust his chrome dome

How twee

That was @Kyle

Can you remember which irish pub it was, the connemara with the band playing on the balcony or a small one down near the water?
We watched it in the small one. There was a small sneaky voiced Tipp lad sitting near the door. I’ll forget him he was so annoying

Just seeing now that Pico Lopes actually started earlier against Spain, I thought he was just in the squad and didn’t realize he was a starter. Great stuff!

He’s a regular for them and has played at a couple of AFCON’s. He was probably their best defender tonight. Made a cracking, acrobatic headed clearance in the first-half to prevent a certain goal.

The Black Velvet Bar. I looked it up and it closed in 2019.

The Frog and Rosbif was down the road and showed Lowry choking in the US Open golf that night.

I had a steak tartare for the first and only time that evening in the restauraunt across the road from the Irish pub.

Games at all hours is every football fans dream says TOD. No Tony, games at 2am and 5am in the morning is not every football fans dream.

Good man Ray

Ray looks the head off Jockey Wilson there

It was the Connemara. TV perched just above the door on way in. We spent a good bit of time down by the Water as well but the mosquitoes were a terrible blight down there along with the Belgians of course.

Darwin is looking fucking glorious. That’s an iconic hairstyle choice.

The championship is the top scoring league so far.

Sort of tells of the quality.

[Bandage]

I’m wondering how John Kenny dovetails with Keith Treacy here. Promising early discussion about the merits of the city of Miami.

[Phil_Leotardo]

I lasted about 10 seconds of John Kenny. Straight over to ITV on the dodgy box

[MogwaiC86]

Keith is a big fan of 4-4-2. He wouldn’t be a big fan of Egypt’s 4-3-2-1 Pyramid formation.

[MogwaiC86]

Keith pronounces the word combative “com-bat-if” rather than than “com-ba-tiv”.

[MogwaiC86]

Nike making the Uruguay cannot end well. Uruguay kits should be made either by Puma or some little known South American manufacturer.

[Aristotle]

I feel like I might be discriminating against Treacy because of his accent but I find him a hard listen.

Just sounds very negative.

[StoneCold]

Treacy i would say sold counterfeit fags on Henry Street back in the day when that was a thing
