Ok terrible weekend for our national team but they need to pick themselves up and i for one can't think of a better place than away to Slovakia and who many considered just a few months ago as dark horses for the world cup. Anyway i think Trap makes a few changes we can get a result against them, i am betting Irieland in everything i can find win, handicap win and draw no bet. I think Ireland can get a result and cememnt their place back in the heart of the nation.

A 1-1 draw really appeals out in this one. We should create a few chances from set peices and long balls and surely take one of them over 90 mins but its hard to see us keeping a clean sheet as well.

Ireland will never be any good as long as the dubs are in domination.Roy Keane wouldnt tolerate them and he was right.Robbie Keane is a good example of a loudmouth in your face jackeen.If you want to see another classic example of the type of person i am talking about then tune into the Apprentice tonight and have a gander at the know it all dub on that.Now this is a real beauty

Glen Whelan and Robbie Keane are a disgrace, the panel don't like to slag off the Dubs on the team. Glen Whelan, his man may have been bigger but he was sound asleep at the back post, height was not what won that header anticapation was. Robbie Keane anybody can miss a peno, but you are a shambles.

A dismal night for Irish football. How the fk did we not win that match. Keane should be dropped, Doyle & Long up front a better combo. Whelan is a joke...but I have to ask why he was marking a centre half at a corner given he's about 5 foot nothing.

The problem with the likes of Keane and Given is they are too greedy to swallow their pride, take a 50% paycut and move to clubs where  they would get a game. Their more than happy to sit on their arses and watch their 70k-80k a week salaries piling up in their bank accounts
