The 5-1 game was a total freak occurrence - as our last fifteen or so meetings with them over the past few years have indicated.


Agree - we won’t lose by more than 2 goals max.
The 5-1 was a one off.

The only way we win is a hard fought 1-0 like the Wales match. 


We have to win - a draw is no good. We're going to have to go for it. If we're a goal or two down and chasing the game we could easily be on the end of another hiding. Denmark have far better players than us. Eriksson on his own is capable of destroying us.

Duffy will be missing too, don't forget.

Duffy is not missing 🤦‍♂️

Delaney and that Sisto bloke are way better than anyone we have. We are in no position to call anyone sh*te, we must be one of if not the worst team in Europe outside of the San Marinos and Gibraltars (who may actually be better than us).

Oh you know what I mean. When was the last time you saw a team play as badly as Ireland do?

Denmark are absolutely not qualified.  If we beat them, provided Switzerland beat Gib and Georgia, Denmark are out.

I actually believe that Jimmy Raggatip is correct. According to the rules here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_Euro_2020_qualifying#Tiebreakers

If we end up on the same amount of points as Denmark and Switzerland, which will happen if:
  • Switzerland beat Gibraltar and then draw with Georgia
  • Denmark beat Gibraltar and lose to Ireland
Then as a tie breaker they look at just the points obtained between the 3 teams concerned to determine who goes through as top two teams.

This means that that hypothetical table will stand at this before the game:

SUI 5pts +1 GD
DEN 5pts +1 GD
IRL 2pts -2 GD

Meaning that Ireland will need to beat Denmark by 2 goals to leapfrog them into second.

Basically, what it comes down to (assuming Denmark beat GIB) is:

  • If Switzerland take 6 points vs GIB & GEO, we need to beat Denmark to finish second ahead of Denmark.
  • If Switzerland pick up 4 points vs GIB & GEO, we will need to beat Denmark by 2 goals or more.
  • If Switzerland pick up 3 points vs GIB & GEO, we will need to beat an already qualified Denmark.
  • If Switzerland pick up 1 point vs  GIB & GEO, we only need a point vs and already qualified Denmark
  • If Switzerland pick up 0 points vs  GIB & GEO, we've already qualified! Party

I got bored of doing these permutations half way through so feel free to fact check. Pretty sure that's correct though!

Would it be goal difference to choose top team, then H2H for the next 2?

Should be interesting to see who is appointed to referee this game. Wouldn't be surprised if its our favourite Turkish referee.
2 host countries playing for one spot.
Who is EUFA's anointed one ?
Has yer man done for us in EUFA ?
 
Would be a flat draw in December if the hosts are not going to the party ?

C'mon lads. The quality simply isnt there.

If a miracle happens and we beat denmark, of course I'd be happy but it would also be a complete robbery. 

Watching ireland play is exhausting, I really want to see a clear out and new approach
