    Tbh, I was more disappointed that Coppers had no salt or lemon to accompany my tequila than either of the above!

    I can't believe the Irish team got more news coverage than what is going on in North Korea.

    The **** could really hit the fan in North Korea. America can do **** all as they as streched to the brink of breaking. Hopefully China will pull money and Korea will stop. George Bush is getting whooped in the news. He's practically begging the UN to help him with North Korea.

    Staunton could lead the Irish international crisis action squad into battle against the Koreans, with no planning to speak of nobody will know where theyll strike.

    The best defense is a good offense, so forget defense and ATTACK, onward to victory ye celtic heroes from the myths of old!!:D

    Maybe if we get Kim Jong to manage the Irish soccer team and Stan can take his place in North Korea. :)

    They'd probably beat us 5 - 2 though... then where would we be?

    North Korea are only 8 places below Cyprus in the world rankings at 111.

    Youre all overlooking the obvious, the masterplan, the genius of the staunton, its all an eloborate deception, he sits in his grand fortress of doom as we speak planning the destruction of Irelands enemies.

    A Dutch work colleague asked me what I thought of the Ireland-Cyprus game yesterday. I told him that I had no interest, but as a rugby supporter I thought that Munster would have played better.
    "As a matter of fact," I added, "11 Peter Stringers would have done better."
    "I dunno who the fcuk he is - but 11 Peter Stringfellows would have done better," my continental colleague replied.

    The **** COULD hit the fan in North Korea, in Ireland the **** has hit the fans. Squarely in the face.

    Maybe Staunton could take some coaching tips from Kim Jong though - "I'm the ghyafer! Now go out there and win or die!"

    Somehow I think Stan could be involved in the nuclear programme in North Korea...

    I think I'd best brush up on my North Korean history just so I can form a better understanding of what's going on over there. Anyone have a copy of Team America I can borrow?

    Of course he is. He's just trying to distract attention from himself until he can think of somebody better than Lee fcuking Carsley to call up to save our hides against the Czech.

    Did anyone else know we were screwed when we were relying on that bald headed twat to save us?

    Right now, I'll have to go with Kim Jong's fireworks. I have no intention of dying in a nuclear fireball at the hands of a man with hair that bad.

    Tomorrow at 4:30PM my time, I'm sure that the full force of my annoyance will once again lie with Stan's army.

    I voted staunton. I really thought the Suns Kermit Muppet beat the hell out of the Sun (UK)'s Team America Front Page. As more thought and imagination was out into Stans Muppet it must logically be the most important story in the Sun and that's good enough for me.

    The Irish Sun. We love it.

    If Sky's "the match" has taught us anything, which it hasn’t, it's that we should now call upon our once retired footballers of yesteryear or promote celebrities (for example: Gay Burn, Dick Spring, Mickey (Joe) Heart or Brian Kennedy) to the squad.

    I can't believe North Korea were hammered by Cyprus, but I found the FAI's detonation of a nuclear device unsurprising.

    The news from Korea didn't bother me at all.
    Irelands defeat the other day was a disgrace, it didn't really annoy me though.
    Bad poll, no facilitation for those of us who don't particularly care about either issue.

    *ahem*

    Well, they did beat Kazakhstan.

    I did every blinking sports bar in Wroclaw, and it was either that or the England game, so I didn't get to see it.

    No bloody harm either, another one up for the effayeye.

    :(
