Trying to make up for calling him a baldy cunt?

OMG let this happen, he can have Gerrard as assistant manager and Rooney can be the waterboy?

England having a right good go.

I think England have been a lot better. Not as good as they should be with the players they have but should be too much for a well drilled but very ordinary Swiss team.

Maybe we were due to pay for him?

We are always exaggerating 🤣

Irish commentator's have said Ronaldo has scored one of his last 157 free kicks. Surely that can't be right? If it is it's a poor return.

The problem is there is significant number of people in the UK who do not like Gary Linieker and do not want to hear his opinion on anything,

It wasn't excessive at all, did you listen to the Podcast or are you just reading about it in the Sun? It was measured, he said the performace had been shit (which was a massive understatement). He did not criticise players and he said the manager was being excessively cautious. You should here Eamon Dunphy speak about the Irish Team if you want to see excessive. 🙂

So literally only the surviving members of the 1966 squad are allow pass judgement on the England Team. What a joke 🙂

At least he is not "foreign"

Yeah but Sandro Tonali won't be able to pay up 🙂

Make A Wish Foundation?

Maybe there is a very small decimal point you can't see.

First time the England front line has not looked like the old man indoor team in Father Ted.

Well obviously he cant, or he would have made a change.

What is the logic of bringin Shaw? We are at the knockout phase and he has not even made a sub appearance?

Slovakia sitting back very early.

Spaletti says "hold my moretti!"

Surely Bellingham in the middle with Rice. That frees up the no.10 position for Foden and in turn makes space on the left for the Newcastle winger whose name escapes me. If Bellingham cannot pull strings from. Midfield maybe he is not the world beating superstar that he is being portayed as The only issue might be that the last easy game to trial this might be behind you now.

I don't mind them representing England especially Grealish as I can only imagine how irritating he would be as the one top class player in an Ireland team. But maybe don't have your picture taken kissing the badge just before you jump ship?

Damn you auto correct 😂

All good points, the main ones being huge competition in Ireland for sports with Garlic games. The abysmal running of the FAI. Huge corruption meaning what little money the govt gave them was misappropriated. Just look at the farcical search for a manager 6 months in and they are going to end up giving it to John O'Shea by default. What sort of mandate does that give him to make changes? And what message is that to young players coming through? Glad we are not at the tournament as I would be embarrassed.

The fees will be "undisclosed" and no matter what sort of shite comes in, Chaddy will just say "fees were undisclosed prove that we didn't spend 7m on 3 36 year old centre forwards with 5 legs and 6 goals between them in the last 4 years, and a 16 year old loanee from Southampton" and on and on it will spin people saying we didn't, and Chaddy saying prove it.

Are we sure they didn't represent us in court somewhere and we have been unable to pay the bill and this is the compromise? I am only half joking 😞
