I actually think European teams get a bit of a raw deal in terms of World cup qualification. Only 13 teams represented and one of them only because they are the holders. 5 teams qualify from Asia/Oceania. I don't think this is balanced. Some very good European teams have not qualified for the world cup because of the stringent and competitive qualifying process. Apart from Ireland, Russia, Turkey, Romania, Croatia and Sweden. All teams with good pedigree.
Back of standard tonight Henry says there should be a replay (cos he cheated )but thats easy to say now that the French and FIFA have said no. This is his way of getting himself off the hook i guess. Statement reads like it was written by a lawyer. Pfft.

And the Germans have just appealed against the 1966 result on the basis of the ball not being over the line. They have about as much chance of success.


I'm beginning to side with Roy Keane on the FAI. All this; please, its not fair, stuff is pathetic.

As Roy Keane quite rightly pointed out, when Ireland got the benefit of a VERY dubious penalty decision against Georgia, you didn't hear any calls from the FAI for a replay then, and it was that penalty which put Ireland through. So enough now please.

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
