I think we’re all getting the idea now. 100% support for the Irish tonight or this place is short of a few members tomorrow.

Right, I’m off.

Not sure we can ride our luck much more here, they should be 2 up by now.

The longer this goes on the more likely Ireland will score. Sisto has been a liability and I find myself asking for Lord Bendtner :eek::banghead::D

Dunphy talking his usual pile of steaming horseshit.
He was correct on a couple of things though - we've been shite (a given) and Denmark aren't great either. Neither of these sides would do much at the world cup.

I did like what Damien Duff said about Eriksen - "He plays for one of the best teams in the world". Damn straight.

Under the cosh at the mo, loads of Danish pressure.

Christie going down helps a bit.

we are basically the international Stoke. Long throw and everything.

Duff impresses me as a pundit. I was listening to him on the radio earlier today. He brings insight to the table and doesn't pull his punches, without launching into hyperbolic bollocks like Dunphy ("Football is dying").

Job done, we got what O'Neill sent us out to get, and it was obvious from the early part of the game that a point would suffice for him.

Better be more attacking in Dublin.
