In simple terms, he said Ireland are only capable of playing an archaic style of football and it’s ingrained in the Irish footballing culture to which Gilesy listed a number of players (who he believed to be classy footballers) and called him arrogant and condescending and that he shouldn’t be talking about the opposition like that.
In fairness to him, this German side like to talk a lot without this particular team having much to back their self-elevated status up.
Noel was happy which is why he didn’t make a change
Walter Mitty Irish Manager
I’d hate to see what would have required making a substitution.
Wasn’t watching Giles, but I’d imagine it was more that he implied that this is basically a permanent and unchangeable feature of Irish football, and it doesn’t matter who the players or manager might be, that would have pissed him off.
Because it wasn’t always like that, we had good players before and we were respected , now we are a laughing stock it seems
Where is the translator? Did she get the bullet as well.
Dunphy is right, Noel King is a retard.

That’s different to what kid said.
Giles has every right to be upset. At least we never tried to wipe out a whole race, the Nazi bastard.
Somebody is wrong here, either the pundits are wrong or noelers is codding us ?

Stoke’s is a fantastic player and deserves all the plaudits he gets…
Which Stoke player?
Ireland were a shambles when John Giles was manager.
Ah lads, the goalie in on here now saying how everything went for him, it was 3-0 you monumental dope
Change the record, mate.
Two Irish legends
Don’t trivialise what ye did, at least the Germans had a purifying progress ( Nuremberg )
