The FAI have tweeted

The seeds are Portugal, Croatia, ROI & Czech Rep.

Unseeded are Bosnia & Herz, Estonia, Montenegro & Turkey.

Draw Thursday at 12pm our time.

Estonia or Montenegro I suppose but neither would be a pushover.
When you think you're fucked you're only about 40% fucked.

According to the UEFA website they have  Turkey above us  by 2 places but the FAI would have done their homework wouldn't they, before they tweeted???

They are two ahead in the rankings which is irrelevant in this matter.

I will believe we are seeded when the Eufa statement comes out, the FAI are useless.

They are correct here i reckon all the talk before the game was that a France draw would let Ireland in as seeds.

Minus15

The interim rankings were published after the september games. Since then Turkey have Lost one and Won one whilst Ireland have won both of their games. May be enough to lift them above Turkey and into the top seeds!

3rd seeded team,
we even made it with room to spare.

Though our goose will be cooked if we get the unseeded Bosnia, they look a real deal

The results against the best teams in the group excluding Andorra determine seedings for the playoffs.

So take 6 points off Irelands total and compare with the teams from the smaller groups

No, they only determine who gets the one automatic 2nd place qualifier spot.
