Against Slovakia - Ireland looked the away team

It looks like its going to be the same here, Armenia owning the ball with some nice triangle passing.  Why do Ireland look so technically bad to other teams? 

Ireland - conceding majority possession in every game they play

Surely the whole lack of euthaism over the Ireland soccer team could be partly explained by the flipping dire stuff they play

  I dont understand with the way Ireland play that Rory Delap doesnt get game time  ??? Is he even in the squad?

What is it exactly about the way Ireland play that makes you think Delap would be an appropriate selection?

Wanted.  Forwards to take frees.
Not fussy.  Any sort of ability will be considered

About time a controversial hand ball decision went our way - two years too late though!
That was never a square ball!!

It hit underneath his arm I thought.  I feel sorry for the keeper but the ref got this one right.

Foul the keeper, high foot and hand ball in the space of 5 minutes by Simon Cox equals the opposition goal keeper getting sent off. Life works like that sometimes.

Mcgeady is shocking bad,giving the ball away every time,get it out the other side to duff

I don't understand why McGeady continuously starts for Ireland.  Hunt always looks more dangerous when he is on and I'd much rather see him getting a chance.

Who would take a penalty if we got one tonight?
