FAI...New Manager Hunt continues

Rd 1 draw for 6 October:  Scotland v Austria, Wales v Bosnia and Herzegovina, Portugal v Belgium.

Rd 1 draw for 11 October: Portugal or Belgium v Iceland, Scotland or Austria v Ireland, Switzerland v Wales or Bosnia and Herzegovina.

[Ed Ricketts]

Difficult draw there, maybe the most difficult possible. Austria the likely opponent. They've run Euro champs England very close three times in the last 12 months.

Switzerland with the plum draw. Bosnia and Wales both duds.

Belgium a good shout to come through the other draw, which would qualify Ireland automatically should they manage to overcome Austria (or Scotland).

"On Thursday Stephen Kenny will name his Ireland squad for the Scotland showdown and the home game against Armenia the following Tuesday."

Scotland have 2 x Ukraine and 1x Ireland
Ireland have 1x Scotland and 1 x Armenia
Ukraine have 2 x Scotland and 1 x Armenia

McGinns a dirty f**ker

The Kenny project is going well

Stephen Kenny's side have defended with diligence and concentration and attacked with purpose on the break."

[An Watcher]

Impressive playing out from the back by ireland.  Maybe the reason big Duffy isn't in there.  Plus Bazuna looks like he could play outfield no problem

[Sportacus]

Geo blocked.  I'll give my vote to whoever can get it sorted once and for all.

[weareros]

Poor defending for that goal.

[weareros]

Jesus Parrott.

Poor defending for that goal.

Yeah very lazy

[weareros]

Cheap penalty to give away and now 2-1.
