We give out about the English overrating established premier league starter’s (which isn’t necessarily wrong in terms of winning an international tournament) yet we heap pressure on any underage player with a bit of potential. I remember lads criticising mourinho for not playing parrott more off the back of underage games. Now suddenly he’s no good because he hasn’t scored in a while. He may not be good enough but let him find his level without any pressure. He’s essentially a championship player with huge pressure on him

It'll be interesting to see how Parrott develops - someone asked the question a few pages back would he possibly become an attacking midfielder. He reputedly has a great engine, but is not explosively fast, so I could see it. Fingers crossed that Idah's knee heals fully, and Connolly continues with his new-found maturity, humility and born-again passion.

Ah here. If you are trying to say that Scotland under Clarke are a version of Trapattoni or O'Neill then you weren't sitting in the stands watching us. As the Scottish are nothing like that. Results wise yes, but performance wise that's a ridiculous statement. Martin O'Neill's tactics away to Denmark in a play off was to hoof the ball, and if they were further up the pitch hit it off a Danish player for a throw. It was Soccer Rugby.

The Scots are the weirdest bunch ever.
Had a quick read of their forum this morning and they're accusing Ireland fans of singing IRA songs and think we made no chances and played long ball. They are so deluded it's unbelievable. Hopefully the Ukranians batter them.

The IRA songs aren’t an accusation, we did sing them. But it was very brief.

Just saw the goals on youtube. Was it O'Shea who gave the penalty away?
What the fook was he doing? On youtube it looks like he is running twards the ball with both arms in the air.

Do they think the Fields of Athenry is an IRA song? In fairness, if they are looking at our forum they are probably reading plenty of deluded content.

That is disappointing if correct, what clowns we have as supporters.

A lot of people were very clearly singing "Ohh Ohh up the ra" .. everyone says we have the best fans but we have plenty of the worst.
The demographic of fans attending has changed for the worse in the last few years in my opinion |

Their arrogance is what annoys me the best. They genuinely think they are a far superior team to what they are. They have some very good players but I spoke to a lot of them at both games who were fully expecting to steamroll us. I hope Ukraine sort them Tuesday night

I wouldn't worry too much, with that goalkeeper and central defence they'll be back down to earth with a bang before long regardless of what happens Tuesday. Wouldn't at all mind getting them as the second seed in our qualifying group actually.

Browne. Moment of madness/panic. He's not good enough but we're short in midfield so he's still there along with one or two others. We have no depth in centre mid at all.

Would take them as second seeds all day long. For a team as 'limited as Ireland' we cut them in two on the break on about five occasions.

The bitterness towards Scotland is comical on here from some. They are no different to us in that they overestimate how good and bad they are at times. Like all football fans.
