plus England only needed a draw so there wasn't a huge incentive to win compared to a must win spot

So all we need to do to guarantee a play-off spot is get 3 points against the Euro and World champions in Alicante

Bah that'd be us with 2nd clinched if that Czech dick hadn't dived at Hampden

Robbie Keane looks like he will be out of Tues night's match. Shane Long + Kevin Doyle up top then. I like it. Gonna be a nervy night in the stands.

Is this just for European Championships or for both the Euros and World Cup qualification?

We blew a 2 goal lead a few years back in Amsterdam.

Yeah, near the end too iirc. But it's cool because revenge was wrought and we dumped their ass out of WC 2002.

Robbie Keane out injured so obv Shane Long is his replacement right?

Hell no, Simon Cox gets the nod. JFC Trap wtf are you doing?

Shay Given, John O'Shea, Sean St Ledger, Richard Dunne, Stephen Kelly, Aidan McGeady, Keith Andrews, Glenn Whelan, Damien Duff, Kevin Doyle, Simon Cox.

If I was picking the team it would be;

-------------Given-------------

Coleman---St Ledger---Dunne--OShea

------Andrews--McCarthy--Whelan---

Duff-------------------------McGeady

--------------Long-----------------

Actually might throw Wes Hoolahan in for either Andrews or Whelan.

I love Doyle but he has been pretty awful for us recently. Big fan of Long and his ability to stretch defenders gives him the nod for me + he has that knack of getting goals. I have no idea how Cox has gotten ahead of him, maybe Trap is pissed at Long for pulling out against Slovakia last month because he had benched Doyle in favour of Long. I should just give up trying to work out what goes on in that man's head.

Would like to see us move away from 4-4-2, we got outplayed by a poor slov team in Dublin just bec they had the numbers in M.F. Jonathan Wilson was on the radio yest saying Arm play a 4-3-3 and played slov of the park when the two meet, apparently they have some great players on the ball.

We all know Trap is stuck in his ways and we are going to play a 4-4-2 and get outplayed for 90% of the match.

No chance we beat the Spanish but really hope we do, although check Renia out coming out saying a draw would be bad for Spain.
