TDYER63 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Ireland putting up a far better fight against Ukraine than we did. There is little between the 2 teams. A think we really want a draw here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the off chance that our defence actually clear the ball our counter attack gets as far as the halfway line then the ball is back to our defence who are not so successful the second time ..

Guest Scot1 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 1-1 between Ukraine and Ireland was probably the best result for us. Leaves us 2nd, 1 point behind Ukraine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbo cop Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Great result from ROI, we win 4-1 and England get pumped 4-0. What a difference a day makes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddardStark Posted June 14, 2022 Author Share Posted June 14, 2022 Not a bad night for us at all. Next 2 games are crucial. We can really set ourselves up and hopefully some players back from injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southgate has achieved more with that team than any manager since Alf Ramsey. But 4-0 at home to Hungary - jeezo, I'd be pissed off if that happened to us!

Dare I sing it: 'Going down , going down, going down.' They're hilarious. I watched the Italy game on Saturday and it was, "Yes you can see that was a clear yellow card..." after a foul by an Italian player, shortly followed by, "There didn't look like much contact there..." after a similar one by Grealish. Gotta love them. There's no doubt they've got a talented group of players at the moment unfortunately. Not the best lot they've had though. The worry is they'll get a competent manager who knows how to best use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
