Ireland vs Gibraltar - surely be to God we’ll hammer them

It reads better than if I was to watch and listen to him say it.

Watching any interview with him looks like hard going for him. He is always getting stuck for words, long pauses, twitching away. I’d say at times he is seething but he never seems to have a result where he can have a cut back.
This could be the best it will get for him in this group - a 3-0 home win over the minnows, so it was his time.

“Don”. That’s a real Irish soccer name.

Stop that nonsense

Far from nonsense. Our lack of midfielders is killing us.

We’d be grand if your hero John Delaney hadnt made a bollocks of Grealish and Rice.

I’d be no major fan of him, but he actually said the exact opposite in the piece printed here a few posts back.

[Batigol]

He did but then buried it with 3 minutes/10 seconds of caveats and excuses

[myboyblue]

No he didnt

[Batigol]

Ok they were before it. Going on about margins and acting like he was the only manager on earth who had to deal with Covid, then reverting back to his “ah but we are playing out from the back” spiel

[myboyblue]

Again, I’d be no fan of the man, but he laid it all out there and you are spinning his words, and in the first instance, actually flipping them entirely.

Just be more careful in future.

[Batigol]

I’m happy with my interpretation of it. Telling us it’s all about results then immediately flipping back to how we play etc.

But I respect you’re opinion mate and won’t call you a fascist

He needs to go. We need Sam I am.

Nasser Hussain was seething about the Bazball yesterday after England lost the test match. Made the point that sport is first and foremost about winning. Style of play come a distant second.

As a Waterford hurling fan you’ll no doubt grudgingly agree.

So its Ferguson’s fault.

Fair enough.

Too many top top strikers. Poor Steo.

I want Kenny to succeed more than anyone but the thing that really annoys me about his regime more than anything else is this idea that we play good football.

Generally, against the weaker teams, we haven’t played attractive football at all. It’s been dreadfully slow, dreadfully dull stuff.

Possession without penetration is turgid to watch. If he thinks that is good to watch, he’s deluded.
