fringo Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 We've nobody to blame but ourselves for not qualifying. Good luck to all those have have qualified. Irish fans beside us at Parkhead were first class & despite our OTT celebrations queued up to shake hands at f/t. Of course its crap that Them, Wales, N. Ireland & ROI are all going and we're left at home but can't really grudge anyone their place there. Just hoping that sometime soon (very soon please) that fans of other countries are saying pleased they are to see us qualify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorbotnic Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 If there's folk who are born in England, spend their whole lives in England, have 2 English parents and mostly English grandparents, yet claim to be Scottish, i'd be pretty amazed.

Charlie Endell Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) James Morrison.Don't know if he actually claims to be Scottish. Mind you, I don't know whether McGeady and McCarthy actually claim to be Irish either - anyway, they obviously backed the right horse.Edit: I'm pretty sure Morrison's father isn't Scottish - think it's a Scottish granny case?

Toepoke Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Still can't get over the performance in Georgia, just don't understand it. Charlie Mulgrew at centre half... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flynnyboy Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Charlie Mulgrew at centre half... Yeah a centre half, who had probably been one of, if not the best player, in the 18 months prior to that game cost us it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fraz65 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Thanks to all the decent TA who have wished us well. Wish you were with us travelling to France Why does that make them decent? I wanted Bosnia to win in view of everything they've been through as a nation in recent years. They've also not stolen two of our best players.

Parklife Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 James Morrison.He doesn't claim to be Scottish. He even said when first called up that he "didn't feel very Scottish". Next! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParisInAKilt Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 well done ireland 1 lose in 12 games cant be argued with Aye you can't say they didn't deserve it, regardless of the quality of their football. That's the game, getting points whatever way you can. Something we've struggled with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrystarfish Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Aye you can't say they didn't deserve it, regardless of the quality of their football. That's the game, getting points whatever way you can. Something we've struggled with. That's the truth of it. And something every other nation in Europe with an ounce of footballing nous has achieved at some point over the last 16 years. Never mind being drawn into tough groups, or dodgy referees, or playing games in high temperatures, or at the end of a tough season, or the start of a new season - all bollocks excuses. Every other decent sized nation has managed to qualify for something since '98. Ireland respond to the lows of the handball vs France in the last qualifiers by stepping up when needed and qualifying for the very next tournament. It seems to take us a couple of qualifying tournaments to recover from a 'near-miss'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParisInAKilt Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Also who was the last team to take 4 points off Germany in qualifying? Or the reigning world champions? Can't be many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
