    If we count them down like this we'll have won it in no time.

    That might get a bit boring..eh..58

    Not really. The French tend to sulk and retreat when they're losing. Slightly different in front of the home crowd though...maybe...

    Ah don't mind me Father, if I knew anything about soccer I'd be on the Soccer Forum.

    So many free kicks!

    There will be 15 minutes extra time for the first half :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,822 ✭✭✭✭Ally Dick


    It's kind of a sh1t match really, isn't it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,099 ✭✭✭CFlat

    Bit early in the game for slowing things down this much in fairness

    As long as we stay ahead is pretty great

    3 min of injury time would be acceptable

    Are we talking the number of free kicks or minutes extra?

    Whats a fiver in sterling now anyway?

    What did Jeff get booked for?

    Is Ribery not involved with France these days? And Benzema?

    I'm delighted with the goal but scoring against a team like the French this early is like kicking a sleeping lion. They're awake now and they're pissed off.

    Statements like this are silly.

    "well lads, we weren't planning on playing to the best of our abilities or winning the game or anything but now that these ****ers have scored, let's play well!"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,690 ✭✭✭✭Skylinehead

    Nah they're pricks so better off having them not there.

    Ribery for mutiny in 2010 and Benzema for some teammate sex tape thing :D

    Phew

    T'was close all right. Defense were superb..well eventually.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,690 ✭✭✭✭Skylinehead


    Me heart


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,768 ✭✭✭✭tomwaterford


    Fair play to Ireland...I taught it would be desperation stuff with last gasp defending etc

    Very happy so far.

    Ideally, id like Ireland to win but if they don't, man, they fought well in the first half.

    Hope they keep the aggression, sense of urgency and effort up.

    Hope the same Irish team comes out after half time, its been steady enough since the first few minutes


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,152 ✭✭✭✭KERSPLAT!


    Brilliant bar a few times giving them too much time just outside our box, you cant give Payet, etc that much time, they'll get it right eventually and punish us. Push out and put 'em under pressure ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,099 ✭✭✭CFlat


    Slightly off topic but who is the lad with the beard on the train everyone wants to take a selfie with?

    In the advert.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 798 ✭✭✭LightsStillOn


    Could have been 2 or 3 up. Absolutely LOVE seeing Ireland play like this. Longest 45 minutes ever on the way though :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,622 ✭✭✭Ruu


    Is Henry anywhere in the building? :o Nail biting 45 mins left.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,586 ✭✭✭✭Realt Dearg Sec

    Be weird if the rugby team came out


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 16,401 ✭✭✭✭Arghus


    It feels at least a week since Brady scored.

    Could do with Paul O'Connell for these long balls!
