Ireland v Bulgaria - Both sides are riddled and Useless

Can you not criticise someone without becoming one of them?

You seem to have an agenda with the footballing journalism corps in general in that they don’t like guys you like and they don’t criticise things you want to them to criticize, unless its the guys you like and then they criticize things you don’t want them to criticize

Who’d be a football journalist eh?

I was skagging out for the first Israel game after taking two pills at a hostel party the night before in Brasil … I blew my chance of a go off a savage Canadian bird of Colombian extraction which made the skag a whole lot worse and I was trying to follow the game on a dial up computer in an internet cafe. I was livid we coughed up an equalizer … Kerr fell apart after that.

Jesus christ, you’re definitely stubborn anyway.

That isn’t true at all, I dislike Martin O’Neill but overall he did a fairly good job for Ireland through a decent defensive set up most of the time and a fair amount of luck really I would argue and he deserved criticism towards the end of his reign definitely. I quite like Mick McCarthy but again he deserved some criticism but not as much as he got I would argue considering he didn’t have much time and we weren’t too far away against Denmark in his final game. I’m talking about radio/podcasts here with the journalists rather than articles as I don’t read many articles. Kenny has had a luckless time of it so far and does not deserve to be heavily criticised at this stage but I’m just looking for the same balance and mild criticism of decisions.

You can have the last word btw, we’re going nowhere here

I met Tony O’Donoghue once and the interaction we had would leave me perfectly happy to never meet him again

Were you patting him down in security?

I encountered Tony O’Donoghue in The Chophouse in Ballsbridge. There was a mutual understanding between us not to bother the other during our respective meals.

There is an interview with him in The Athletic today, he seems to be completely committed and driven to get an England cap going from his comments in it.

I reckon Big Sam could turn him.

Willie McCarthy RIP :cry:

Bit of talk Randolph retiring now.

Where? He wouldn’t be at much if he retired from internationals

Randy finally mastered the Cruyff turn. can’t jettison him now
