Does he not realise he should be cutting them all out and having 3 tiered competitions. The World Cup for 8 teams, the Intermediate World Cup for 12 and the Junior World Cup for 12. Expanding? Jaysus, sure we all want to see the best teams playing each other, and never mind teams that have no chance of winning the whole thing.

And we thought the group stages of this year's Euros were boring...

At least there'd only be three games in each group, rather than the six with the four team groups, so each one would be done with relatively quickly.

Georgia currently doing us a massive favour v Serbia.
Hopefully they hold on. 1-1 with 25 mins left.

As usual pretty horrible to watch 20 mins gone. We seriously lack any creativity

Whelan is a lucky man to still be on the field.

Wales not much better. For all their possession Randolph hasn't had a save to make.

Borefest so far. The disagreement between the 2 Stoke teammates was highlight of a poor 1st half.

I'd be happy with another borefest in the second half and​ us to come out of it with at least a point.

Pretty glad I forgot about this until halftime. You can only take so much soul-crushing Irish national team football before you lose your mind.

Sounds like we've went full Tyrone in this one.
