The thing about bans is that you need to be able to understand the content in order to discern what merits the individual being banned.

I don't understand :wink:

What I mean is, I have never seen a positive reasoned post from him. I wasn't calling for a ban, I just meant how does he still feel the urge to post here if all he has is bad things to say....I just wouldn't bother.

I have no doubt that the worst Republic team in many years can BLUFF their way through to SA, in the summer, but the Tournament will hardly rank as one of the best on record (unless the seeding scandals are replicated to allow a 'seeded' winner like England or Germany, like in '66 lol?).

BLUFFed our way unbeaten through our group did we? :roll:

You're some tool. How is it the worst team in many years? Went unbeaten through the group, matched the World Champions, yes World Champions, not once, but twice...but they're shit

Although i was born in England ive got Irish blood in my body.

I hope Ireland make it through, but it will be tough, especially with the second leg being away from home..

Ah, gotcha.

It's just whenever I read Bingy's posts I automatically think 'ban'. :wink:

Good luck to the Irish, Keano will do it for you. WC 02 was so much better because Ireland were in it.

Unfortunately, with the draw meaning the second leg is in France I think this stacks the odds in their favour even more. If the second leg was in Ireland I would have thought an upset was actually quite likely.

our last game there we had 25k fans in the stadium, if we can bring some sort of decent result to the away leg with that sort of support anything can happen. the french crowd will be very quick to get frustrated if france arnt hammering us or arnt playing well and the comments by their twat of a manager about us being englands B side is only going to strengthen the belief of the crowd that they should be hammering us so if that doesnt happen their going to be very frustrated and will take it out on the players

France coach Raymond Domenech came out with this quote yesterday:

"Ireland are the England B team"

i bet that will go down well in Ireland.

Portugal and Bosnia will be a good game. I think Ukraine and Russia will get through comfortably though.

France and Ireland is undoubtedly the tie of the playoffs though. If Ireland take a lead, however slender, into the second leg I think we'll be favourites. If it's in the balance for the 2nd tie, it promises to be one helluva match.
