They possibly are a bit but the standard of international football is dropping a lot. You can do very well qualification wise by just being organised.

Playing the only one in your squad actually scoring goals goes a long way too

He was lost to them years ago. Don't understand why people go on about players who don't want to play for Ireland.

Ireland are dire at the minute, but they shouldn't be chasing after anyone.

I see Northern Ireland with all their world class players and world class manager win again.

In fairness he made it clear from way off back when he was playing championship football he had no interest in wearing the Green Jersey. You can only lose what you have and we never had him!

Johnny English, here is a list of Michael O Neill first results since you admire the North so much.

Norway 0-3
Netherlands 0-6
Finland 3-3
Russia 0-2
Luxembourg 1-1
Portugal 1-1
Azerbaijan 1-1
Malta 0-0
Israel 0-2
Russia 1-0 (1st win)
Portugal 2-4
Luxembourg 2-3
Azerbaijan 0-2
Israel 1-1
Turkey 0-1
Cyprus 0-0
Uruguay 0-1
Chile 0-2

From 29/2/2012 to 5/6/14, more than 2 yrs. He went on to do fairly well but I'd say if Johnny English had anything to do with  it he'd be gone inside 6 months

I admire your faith in Kenny but at what point do you say enough is enough. Another year, 2 years, 5 years. I can't imagine too many turning up at the Aviva if things keep going as they are

Did Bamford play underage for Ireland? Wont get more than 10 caps for the Brits.

Played once for the under 18s. Has likely played his one and only game for England too now like Redmond before him. Southgate strings them along just enough.

Agree flavour of the month.

Granted I'm not a big ROI fan but you'd imagine Kenny is on borrowed time. 1 win 15. It's not the LOI anymore.

Difficult watch at times there on Saturday.  Everything James McClean touched seemed to turn to sh*t.  He even almost ran the ball over the side-line before the cross for the goal.

I dont think Kenny goes at all.  I suspect he gets the Euro qualifiers too.
