We are a defeated nation. Maybe we should the Brits will let us back in the United Kingdom.
At least we'd have a World Cup to look forward too.

SMALL COUNTRY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN PERSECUTED NOTHING HAS CHANGED
Well the good news is that half of Cork is under water.
We beat Fiji , whoop dee doo .
Bad week all round , not a soccer fan , but great performance in France , ruined by the hand of frog . Hard to take such unfair exit , with all the official crocodile French tears . The genuine French fans and a few notables did act with a bit of Gallic elan in calling for a re-match , but the bean counters in charge have all done their sums and France are bigger than Ireland soccer wise , so no chance .
If the boot had been on the other foot ...might have been interesting . Just stop eating lescargot and shaving with Gillet*e --only way to register a protest .

Biodiesel -as a matter of fact I do have a problem with your claim that you're
''proud to be Irish''. One can only be proud of an achievement .
Being ''Irish'' -leaving aside the complexities of this kind of label-- is an accident of birth in which you were entirely passive and is plainly not an achievement.
Accordingly , your claim is a patent absurdity and an affront to logic.
It makes as much sense as saying that you're proud of having blue eyes. :D

I'm not getting into the argument of whether or not we have much to be proud of but I always understood the term "proud to be Irish" related to pride in the "achievements" of Irish people....
