Euro 2012, after 35mins or whatever it was when the 2nd goal went in. You just new the tournament was over right there. It was a surreal and dperessing feeling knowing there was another 2 weeks of the trip left

Euro 88 - no shame whatsoever, all fine performances. The USSR match in particular was the best Ireland performance I've ever seen.

Italia 90 - Egypt. As boring as it gets

USA 94 - Packie's mistake v Wim Jonk

Japan/Korea 02 - Big Mick not realising Spain were down to 10 men

Poland/Ukraine 12 - Spain match set records for levels of poxiness never seen in a major finals before or since

France 16 - Clarke was unlucky not to have scored several own goals in that tournament. We did alright though

Not a hope, we would have to qualify first!

We weren’t getting anything from that game, no matter who reffed it and what they gave us. We got it all wrong.

The whole 2nd half of the Euro 2016 match v Belgium. Ouch
 
That utter c*nt of a Turkish ref refusing us a blatant penno at the start of that half from which Belgium broke straight up the other end to score - and it kept going downhill from there. Unhappy
 
Can you still create a poll for this thread now that it's been opened btw?

I'd agree that the whole of Euro 2012 was the worst finals "moment"
 
Totally devoid of everything

As controversial an opinion as it may be, Im still not sure I don’t believe we would have been better off not qualifying for Euro 2012.

The whole thing was such a debacle, between leaving behind/in the stands about 11 players who would have made a demonstrable difference to the players who were brought, the style of experimentation Trap tried, with Cox playing as a form of winger, the horrendous defeat to Spain, the overlooked injuries etc.

I’m not sure we’ve ever truly recovered from it.

There's a nice thread on our best goals but what about the pure and utter misery ? LOL

off the top of my head 
Wim Kieft - complete and utter fluke Cry
Harte and Kilbane v Spain , the two eejits Angry
Spain in Gdansk , misery unbound , dont dare mention the fields of Athenry Angry
Schillaci Cry


loads more of course if we didn't just mention finals but lets just keep it to the tournaments 
The first time the Devil made me do it. The second time I did it on my own.
