    May as well be 15000-1. A great run to the semis perhaps, but after that, it is only a fantastic dream.

    I can't see us winning, even with both Reids fit,
    I know we sound great on paper but so does spain even considering their midfield and attacking options

    Xavi
    Xabi Alonso
    Fabregas
    Albeda
    Senna
    Iniesta
    Joaquin
    Arteta
    Silva
    De la red
    Guti
    Bojan
    Torres
    Villa
    Luis Garcia
    Raul


    So even if we beat everyone else it will be hard to get past them in the final.

    Is that 150/1 to qualify for the world cup? Might be worth a punt but I wouldnt go crazy.

    Hardly. That would be to win it outright. The odds on us qualifying would be alot shorter I'd imagine.

    EDIT: just checked paddypower.com and Ireland to qualify for WC 2010 is 5/2.

    1/4 for us not to qualify.
