Big day for Irish football today.
I've a feeling that it won't all go to plan though. Greece have to start resurfacing some time, and Germany are Germany. Both Irelands could blow it quite easily.
And then there's Scotland. They could still sneak into the playoffs. Plenty of goals in the Poland game tonight one thinks. |  | | |  |

From our point of view it would be shameful if we messed it up now but without the big lump Lafferty a goal could prove elusive.....i said that about Qpr minus Austin of course.
The other strikers are scoring albeit at Scottish and Championship level.Wouldnt want to be needing anything awy to Finlnd either.
Will be tense,looks like i picked the wrong campaign to gve up my block booking....silly bugger.

I am not Irish and (whisper it quietly) I don't really like Guinness. However, I always look out for Norn Iron's results because a lot of my friends growing up had come over from Belfast. As far as the Republic is concerned, any team whose captain asks his manager to 'stick it up yer bollocks' is fine by me.
Fingers crossed for both of them. |  |

Ireland haven't beaten a team seeded above them in eleven years, and they will most likely have to beat one of Germany or Poland. I just can't see it.
Norn Iron look better placed and deserve to be. Hope they make it.
Similarly Scotland deserve something from qualification, and I think will make the play-ofs at least. |  |

Ireland only have to equal or better Scotland's result against Poland to be guaranteed a play-off spot. Scotland's last game against Gibraltar will hopefully be a dead rubber. |  | | |

Oh, shag the play-offs! We haven't a hope in them!  | |

Depends. We have a nearly 50% success rate in them . How's that for clutching at straws!!! | | | |

Ha!

Lafferty's equaliser against Hungary may well prove to be the equiv of Bobby Zamora's. Some say you dont choose the club you follow, but your country goes without saying. Following Norn Iron is not dissimilar to The Rs! Like the Rs, they could easily mess this up. Greece are beginning to play in the manner they were expected to, and have a horrible feeling that tonight will be a draw at best.
Saying that, hoping that 30 years are put to rest and I can plan next summer around being in France |  | | |

Can Scotland score more than Lewandowski with Strachan as manager?
Somehow I doubt it. He's a disaster of a manager. | | | |

A disaster? Harsh. Failed at Boro, but did well at Coventry in appalling circumstances, good at Southampton. Hardly a disaster at Celtic, but it's hard to judge success and failure there. Disaster? Berti Vogts and George Burley, now you're talking. |  | | |

Feel gutted for Scotland, they were so close and looked odds on after the result against Ireland. Would have been good for everyone to be there but 4 of 5 should still add something to the competition.
Tasty return fixture for Albania v Serbia too I see... |  |

Yeah Albania Serbia very short for a red card.
Racing Post tipping less than 10 corners in the Norn Iron game - shaping up as an absolute bore draw that one.
Lewandowski has scored 12 in his last 4 games and also ten in qualifying so far. | | | |

Fingers crossed that both Ireland & Northern Ireland get there
It wouldn't surprise me if Eire done Germany and the Scots do the Poles , that would blow the group wide open leaving Eire vs Poland the crunch game |  |
| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

I'm hopeful that the GAWA can get a result. If they do it might help to beat back the rising tide of Ulster Rugby paraphernalia - suddenly everybody seems to know somebody called Alisdair who went to Methody. |  | | |

6 against Gib, 3 against George, 1 against Ger.
He hasn't scored against anyone not beginning with G though. | | | |

Rep fans strangely celebrating the Poland equalizer meaning they now need to win their instead of draw.
Must have been in shock

Almost called that right
Well done Eire , now do the old jam rolls
Could be in for a good night as the Mrs has her Ireland shirt on and is p1ssed
Also excellent result for Northern Ireland there manager should be named manager of the decade
Should be an excellent tournament next year | |

Fair play to NI who for me are the team of the qualifiers.
Outstanding and inspiring to see such huge character and pride. | | | |
