Funny things happen in those qualifiers Indiana. Especially when Slovakia are at home. Russia are no great shakes either.

The Armenians are 4 up now. Magnificent news from Bratislava. I think Wales might have given them a similarly spanking in the the Euro 2008 qualifiers.

The key match now is Slovakia v Russia. We'll presume Ireland beat Andorra that night.

If Russia win or draw - a point at home to Armenia will secure a play off berth

If Slovakia beat Russia - two Ireland victories would put them top of the group and therefore through automatically.

Is anyone seriously suggesting slovakia will beat russia when russia only need a draw against them. Slovakia are a s*** team.

Slovakia beat them in Moscow and deservedly so. Russia are not the same side on their travels and the Eastern European countries tend to raise their game against them. Slovaks obviously had a bit of a nightmare tonight but they are a much better side than that. To be honest we probably made the Russians look better than they actually are today.

Slovakia beat them in Russia so its not inconceivable that they could provide a shock at home, particularly given that their playoff hopes depend on it.

Little Liechtentein had 11 Richard Dunnes tonight for the first half an hour against Spain. One down now.

Dont see it myself. I'd be more worried about the armenians doing us at home considering our inability to score. I'd take 0-0 against armenia now.

Slovakia Russia match on 7th October, day we play Andorra away. Our match with Armenia on 11th October so required result for that match will be a lot clearer at that stage. More than likely will need the 2 wins regardless so would be crazy to take the draw IMO.

From the Bunker

Once again we are in a mad group where we could end up Winning the group or finishing 4th........Crazy! Still it's a great place to be in, having alot of the outcomes in our own hands. Andorra being our second last game sets us up nicely! If we go ahead early, (the more important) players can (hopefully) be rested for the Armenia game 4 days later.
