Sorry, I know we have the Euro qualifiers thread but the mood over here has been mental since last night. Pretty sure the entire country will party right through until next summer! Belfast was crazy last night, the bars emptied onto the street. Pretty much every bloke in work is suffering this morning. Love it!!!!

haha, gonna be tough given my financial situation but I'll certainly be trying to get there. Getting a ticket will be the difficult part, certainly not much issue getting to France and there's plenty of cheap accommodation.

Worth going just to soak it in be plenty of home support over there for all the home nations I expect.

Was an amazing night and still cant quite believe we have qualified! Myself and my missus are already agreed to head over to France (with or without tickets) and have a totally wonderful time supporting the team. We have been waiting almost 30 years for this!

Well done our northern irish brothers/sisters!

Love this level of passion, I've thoroughly enjoyed watching Northern Irleand and Wales do their thing this last year or so, amazing and love seeing the passion.

I wish I had something to be excited about being english and all :-(

Have to admit I never thought I'd live to see Northern Ireland qualify for a tournament. It would be great if England, Northern Ireland, Wales, and Republic of Ireland all make it for the big party.

Shame about North Northern England :D

We've still got a bit of work to do to get there but I'm pleased for the North. Followed them in '86 in Mexico and it's been a long wait since. The joy for them and Wales is reminiscent of our own glory days with Big Jack. Some of that feeling has been diluted in recent years but after beating the world champions maybe we too will have a festival of football to look forward to. Que sera, sera!

I remember '94 well. Obviously England weren't there but I remember I wasn't alone in cheering the Republic of Ireland on as if they were our own (erm...in a totally non-controversial way).

I cheered Houghton's goal against Italy as if it was Lineker in the semi-final.

Would love to see your lads there to liven up the tournament.

Totally missed this thread, and most of the weekend infact. With a decent group I can see us getting through, we will be hard hard to beat can think Davis, Norwood and Lafferty will have a good tournament.

It is shit, though
If it was anyone else but you, I'd take out my otter skin glove and strike you across the face with it.

It's an acquired taste for sure and it greatly helps if you have played the game at any level but it is not shit. It's not like we're discussing baseball here.

I will say no more on the matter.

Well done to you Norn Iron Spurs out there. I shall cheer for you, especially if you come up against whichever band of plodding, brainless oafs (any Spurs players excepted) Ingerlund manage to cobble together.
