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.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though.

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
