world cup qualifiers (2 Viewers)

as of now, we are shit, and have no chance of getting out of this group. lets start from there, so we can be greatly cheered up if we can hold Cyprus to 0-0 in Nicosia, eh?

I'd settle for a 2-1 defeat and a moral victory.

Stupid question but isn't the World Cup every four years? It was just last year, no?

these are just the qualifiers. they'll run from about september 2008 until october/novermber 2009. World cup is on again then in 2010.

I remember the days of beating Cyprus 6-0 and Malta 8-0.

And not being surprised.

Long gone.

Bring back Eoin Hand.

To be fair, the 8-0 against Malta was the highest victory in our history, which isn't saying a lot, and at the same time we were still scraping 2-1 victories against Luxembourg at home.

Edit - OK, quite a few years in the difference between those matches, but my point is we've never cruised against the minnows. Mind you, we did beat them at least.

the minnows are getting more obdurate as well. they used to take pastings for fun, now it's all 1-0 losses like andorra and russia. lets face it, we're a minnow.

If we get the right manager in (El Tel please!) and we can get Duff, S.Reid and Ireland in the side and playing well, then we've got a chance. If we're stuck with another international rookie manager and the likes of Liam Miller in the first team - then we're well fucked.

Can one of the members do a managers choice poll in this forum?

If only Robbie Keane could piss on the floor in a strip club, Andy Reid make some girl cry for taking a picture of him and Kevin Kilbane get sucked off and fucked by some pro in the basement.. maybe we could win this world cup.

What do you mean, maybe? Dead cert.
