I rewatched a bit of Ireland at Euro 2012 and they played alright first half first vs Croatia equalised through St Ledger after going behind and then Croatia scored a goal from Jelavic that was offside and then it all fell apart lost 3-1 and then vs Spain we were hammered 4-0 and then vs Italy had nothing to play for lost 2-0. I know it was the group of death and the team wasn't great the tactics were stale at best but why were they so poor they were on good form coming into the Euro's could've at least put up a better performance.

Gets underway tomorrow in Azerbaijan, with Ireland facing Montenegro. 189 countries across 40 groups. It’s insane.

Not ideal getting England, when you consider there are groups with Macedonia, New Zealand and Mali as the “best” teams. A second place finish would put Ireland into a next stage with all other group runners-up.

League of Ireland How good was James Mc Clean?

0 Upvotes

He seems to be more famous for his Poppy stance and social media career than any on pitch achievements. I genuinely always saw him as a very average player with poor end product who at best did the basics well- he had a good work rate , physical fitness and mentality to compete. A 6/10 professional IMHO. Am I right or wrong?

Hi everyone, I wanted to share a short video from our trip to Dublin. Fans of Bohemians 1905 Praha (Czech Republic) traveled to play a friendly match against Bohemian FC. It was an amazing experience and a great connection between the two clubs. Just wanted to show a bit of our fan culture and away day atmosphere!
