jimmy two times Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 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.

Mick Mac Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 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.

candj Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Sorry if this has been mentioned but Henry's Wikipedia page was vandalised when someone referred to him as 'Le C*nt.' Made me chuckle.

silverfox Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Oh, I see - the first report wasn't that clear. Ireland is asking that the competition is expanded, but if Ireland is allowed to participate Costa Rica will also have to be included it appears.

Mick Mac Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 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.

Atila Reincarnate Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 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. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/8504-so-france-v-ireland-and-ireland-v-france/page/9/#findComment-270324 Share on other sites More sharing options...
???? Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 The other thing to remember is Ireland weren't even through before the handball - they were looking like facing a penalty shoot out!
