10/3 n ireland v switz

Better off taking NI to score @ 2.14, imo.

Mon Norn!

Unlucky as NI were with the Penalty decision on Thursday, you just can't see NI winning this game.

Think rain over last 24 hours could have big affect here with conditions , could be mistakes i think BTTS

That doesn't cover the 0-0, tho Trilby.

True Plat but I think NI will score in 90.  They have to!

I hope I'm wrong, but I can't see NI scoring.

laid Switzerland again

One for the cameras from the keeper.

could be 1-1 already

Incidentally, I noticed that Talksport commentary is about 8 seconds behind R5Live, even though they're both on MW.

what's your prediction for this one Des?

I reckon 2-0, though I've covered 0-0, 1-0 and 3-0. I might put a small saver on AOH as the price goes up.

If N Ireland score I'll lose a fair bit, but wouldn't mind if they go through. can't see it though.

My prediction is 2-1 to Switzerland

Seferovic could have had a couple already.

Yet hasn't even hit the target yet.

Saferovic doesn't get his head to the ball with enough power. If he did he could've had 2.

That score would be a nightmare for me, wise.

Wouldn't mind so much if NI score and go through, but if they score and go out anyway it would be a miserable afternoon for me.

ht 0-0 , quite enjoyable

Pitch is atrocious for World Cup tie......

Going to come down to FITNESS..........and Irish appear to be fitness team IMO...

Goal is very likely to come.....may well be from a penalty....as last 20 mins mistakes bound to happen on that pitch.

Want Irish to win as robbed in 1st leg....re players getting off with ridiculous fouls...and the so called penalty.

Suspect Irish will score.....but presumably extra time will be played???

0-1 FT......no idea who wins after that!


GL with bets.

Arsenal player XAC is a hot head ....he might be one to get sent off.....if Irish pressing late in game.....

5.1 for sending off appears good odds on that pitch!

Xhaka is a bit of a hothead, but I'm not sure he's getting involved enough in the game to get himself sent off.

swiss missed 4 open goals and Ireland hardly had a chance yet all the irish pundits want more of the same,funny old game ,but not that funny

Main bet is a big lay on 0-0

last time this fixture

1964 

I know, i'll either have to stop watching or green out :)

it was me who thought that 1964 was odd on p1. undone then by a penalty that shouldn't have been given but this time the swiss look likely but as time moves on, they'll sit on their lead presumably

wtf is Gerry Armstrong watching this is a massacre in any other terms bar the scoreline

everyones a winner - aha yes - good spot , that is a weird stat

Gerry has a vivid imagination. you only have to listen to his La Liga commentary on a weekly basis to realise that.

"N Ireland have been such a threat tonight".

yeh see,s goals,pens,red cards everywhere

Last 20 mins looming up......game should come to life.....

my assumption in laying swiss this time around is they don't *need* to win now so 1.4something was a dreadful price but I am not sure how long my nerves will hold out

Norn Iron are trying to turn up the heat.

this pitch is TERRIBLE.

will go for a goal when it hits evens

but I think it plays into Norn Iron's hands. Switzerland have players with better technical ability which would benefit from a perfect carpet surface.

Norn Iron living dangerously. they could get counter attacked badly

0-0 coming up, i think.

I could green now and in some people's books you should but in others never.. oh the dilemma

just backed over 0.5 at 2.6

can cover my stake now by backing 1-0 Switz at 4.6

liechensteiner should be ashamed

ok goal in next 5 mins @ 3's

what a miss

c0ck

There is no way the Swiss will score, they can't even get an easy chance on target let alone score a goal.

DRAMA

the WC dream is nearly gone for Norn Iron.

a whole campaign comes down to a dodgy penalty.

4 mins IT

OFF THE LINE

The Swiss can thank that fooking KLOWN from Romania for getting through.  He should NEVER be allowed to ref a top grade game again

"Brunty"

Unlucky N Ireland, incompetent, possibly corrupt ref has cost them in the end.

0-0 ft - not good eough

robbed by a dubious penalty decision.

So many half chances for NI.....but Swiss missed so many real chances.....AGHHHHHHHHHHH  ...costly 0-0 lay for meeeeeeeeeeeeeee

dodgy pen yes but couldnt step up to the plate in 2nd leg

Unlucky Norn lads, 

but boom GTFI the Swiss lay

A great battling performance from N Ireland.

take away the dodgy pen and we're going into extra time now

oh well croatia to thump the greeks @2.1

What the fook that has got to do with a disgraceful penalty in the first leg.  Swiss couldn't score from open play

the dodgey penalty thing is what is wrong with it all

take away the dodgy pen and we're going into extra time now

but you need to take chances not sit back on a 0-0 and hope to go to ET

they went for it, but couldn't quite score. neither could Switzerland, but they were given a dodgy penalty in the 1st leg.

tried hard the lads but lets be honest if they played to next sunday wouldn,t score

whatever way you look at it, two hard working teams who couldn't score against each other were seperated by a dubious penalty decision.

Neither would the Swiss apart from that penalty

no different if NI had got one, been a different story then, no one would have considered the Swiss unl

....unlucky

yes they would, i'm pretty sure if it was the other way round the Swiss fans would be considering themselves very unlucky

and many neutrals also

anyway croatia to bring home the bacon

hell, i'm a neutral. I support Wales. We knocked out Norn Iron in the Euro last 16. But I can see when something isn't fair and that penalty decision wasn't fair.

N Ireland unlucky in the fact that they finished 2nd to the World Champions in their group, mind you the Swiss finished 2nd level on points with the European Champions

Its time they cut the world cup back to 16 teams, I was looking at a wallcharg from 1978 world cup,a much better format,and better games.Switzerland/born Ireland and Denmark/republic doesn't matter who qualifies it is absolute dross to watch.

I accept the penalty was wrong decision, but norn Ireland didn't score in 180 minutes,swiss did not need to score tonight but couldn't anyway.

My point precisely G Hall, sad as it is for NI you cant rely winning a Pen shoot out or ET if you don' score and in 180 min that is precisely what NI did.

NI cheated out of it - to go out on that penalty decision was atrocious. FIFA have been one of the most corrupt organisations in the world over that last few years - have things changed...?

Did FIFA stop them from putting the ball in the net

No - but did they assist the Swiss in putting the ball in the net G...?

Yes agreed

G you talk some bollox - the only goal scored over two legs was a penalty which should never have been given, the Swiss benefitted from a lot of dodgy refereeing decisions in the first leg including that penalty - NI can feel very aggrieved to go out on that decision, video technology needed for such high profile games.

Its need for all Premier League games in the whole world, as well as world cups, euro champs games, champs league games uefa cup games and the rest, but football is the only sport that never learns and relys on referee's who all make mistakes from time to time, technology of tv camera's, is definatly needed in football, every other sport uses it, 3 appeal for each side each game, would sort football out good and proper.

Good performance tonight from NI real hard working performance from a bunch who are obviously not the greatest players in the world but the way the manager as them playing and the effort cannot be faulted,robbed by a horrendous decision

They are a very poor outfit as are the swiss who should have won by two or three tonight.

Platini  • November 12, 2017 4:56 PM GMT 
That doesn't cover the 0-0, tho Trilby.

Congrats Plat & kudos to you.  I somehow managed to convince myself Iron would score last night.  WD.

G H I take it your taking the p1ss the 78 WC had the night of Iran,Hungary,Tunisia,Austria and Spain when they were Sh1t

Scotland wee also there and were about 3rd or 4th favourites to win it!!!!!!!!

Scotland had a good team then

What about Iran they must have had some team they held Scotland to a draw!!!

Allys Army

And Holland were handy and the Scots beat them

Tunisia!!!!

Peru!!!

Scottish FA make official approach for Northern Ireland manager

At the end of the day it is left to England to once again represent the British Isles at the world cup.
