No one on here believes Ireland have great players but do we have players good enough, for example, to threaten the defence of N Ireland. N Ireland should have scored 3 and their two forwards are playing in League 1. We have as poor a squad as we ever had but for god sake we still have player to be a relatively solid 3rd tier team at the moment.

O'Neill & Keane must be being lined up a job across the water. What they did with that team is nothing short of remarkable. They have consistently over achieved. Huge loss to Irish Soccer. It's quite possible they will turn up at a top Premier League club.

You think O Neill and Keane will get a top job in the UK after this year, no chance. TV pundits is what they will be now.

O'Neill and Keane are gone 

If the problem is the system it won't make any difference.
The FAI missed the boat on the development of young players and this is now a problem at senior level
It is not easy to fix. Mick O'Dowd said the Meath manager after the next one might start winning. Maybe it's like that. 

Losing attitudes are insidious. You have to drop people even if they have loads of experience when they have no belief. You have to build it in young players.
Ireland are disorganised and will be playing teams who aren't. It takes time for young lads to build experience. Kilkenny are learning that now.
Fan expectations are not realistic.

Look at how well the rugby team is doing but that took years to get right. 

If you look at Dunphy analysing the manager after the honeymoon period in videos going back to Staunton there is a constant theme.
I don't think it's been about the manager for the last 14 years.

It certainly is about the manager. Look, you cannot get a job as a professional soccer player in the premier league with out having a minimum technical capability. We still have a fair proportion of players who are playing in that league (7 played against Denmark). Why then are they so absmal that they cannot fashion a shot on target? Even if you assume that Denmark are much better which is fair enough, N Ireland do not have better players yet we didnt even threaten their goal. Our style of play is just totally one dimensional.

25/30 Meg be plenty Itchy?

Not for 4k

Mr Google thinks different, obviously there are more factors in play but with the right equipment 30gb be loads

It might run a bit on those speeds but I dont think it would be consistent. Also, is the supplier giving you true 4k?

Lads can we please stop with the 'friendlies' rubbish. No such thing exists in professional test match rugby.

Why would we, that's what they are.

Do any of us really think rugby is not awash with drug cheats. Look at the muscle some of them are putting on, not possible with out "help"

I have an old Firestick with iptv would I notice a big difference if I got one of these or should I go the whole hog and get a mag 254

Can't imagine any IPTV provider does 4K streams so I'd keep what you have.

Mine is working on it, testing at the moment. However you will need something better than a firestick or a mag 254. You will need a Mag 322 or 351 or equivalent + 100mb broadband.

The damage is so bad that I would say Ireland have no hoep of qualifying for anything. They need to get rid of the current manager, get someone who can get the players enjoying playing again, use the Euro qualifiers to work on a way of play and then focus on the following world cup. Delaney made a huge balls up giving O Neill a new contract.

Will this clown O Neill do the sensible thing and bring on the young Southampton player or will he continue to do the stupid thing.

One other thing. Just because rugby tells you November is in Autumn doesn't mean it is!!

What season is it?

Well that is interesting as I always understood November to be winter but a quick Google tells me the world now says it's autumn. However I was chatting with a gang at work other day and we all were agreed it was in winter. So was November ever in winter or what's the story. Are me and my work colleagues all thick and now re- educated by rugby?

Traditionally in Celtic Ireland, November was seen as being the beginning of winter - as evidenced by October being named "Deireadh Fomhar"

Ah that makes sense now. I'm a celt and rugby heads aren't

Everything I've ever known is a lie. I fell like I'm in the Truman show.

Hard luck Fuerty. Died with their boots on.
Persistent fouling by the Spidéals yet cards galore to Fuerty?

Barry Judge by all accounts made a number of bad calls in that game but to be expected when learning how to ref from the two Duffy's.

He's not from same club as Duffys so not sure why you'd say that.
