Freedom Fighters v Vile Lickspittles-Saturday 5pm

In the 51, calling for reinforcements.

Bunch of Jock cunts at the back singing songs in praise of Steven Fletcher.

Pints of Tiger and Paulaner are €4.

As they are every day in The 51, pal. See you there after the game.

It’s a date

Slab is playing

51 post game.

Just passed by a lad who looked like a rural simpleton with a leprauchan hat and fake beard. Then got level with him and he had a terrific Wolfe Tone Irish Republican Army t-shirt. A complex character but gave him the benefit of the doubt for the t-shirt and he got a high five for his troubles.

Way too much boys in green shit so far. Croppy’s go home ya Huns chant in the Ballsbridge Hotel was only refrained by a few of us.

Ireland: Given, Coleman, Brady, Wilson, O’Shea, McCarthy, Whelan, Hendrick, Hoolahan, Walters, Murphy

I really don’t know what to make of that team. Two battering rams up top, or do we play one of them wide.

Is that a 4231?

Great to see Slab get the start. As I stated last weekend, he was excellent against England and the jockos are weak in the air. I fancy us to score from a set piece, especially with Brady’s delivery.

Hard to read. Could be Hoolahan, Hendrick and Walters behind Murphy. We’ll be very narrow maybe, need big games from Coleman and Brady so.

Fucking hell , MON’s looking for early goals so.

Coleman has to deliver today, he was muck against Poland.

Murphy is left footed and has played off the left before. You would think that one will drop off

Really relying on the full backs to provide overlaps and width.

As frustrating as he can be we will miss McGeady. While having a shocker he can always conjure up a chance out of nothing.

McClean and Long to come on and get us over the line.

What a bizarre montage from RTE.

Could be but Murphy is the only real goal scorer so would be loathe to drop him off where I think he’s average.

McClean and Long are certainties to come on.

Delighted for Slab all the same

I would think it would be almost 4-3-3/4-5-1 with Walters and Hoolahan right and left of Slab with Hoolahan roaming off the left

Mulgrew to start centre half, Flethcher up top for the Scots

Are McGeady and Keane on the bench?
