    Please God, Domenech, anyone, punish them for their insufferable insolence.

    Maybe he's just annoyed at how long you guys went on saying he was a French Catholic?

    True, true...what is truth? In these troubled and stressful times, truth is but one aspect of a heightened sense of reality.

    I do expect reality to hit uppity Ireland in the face this Saturday. They must be told their place.

    Ha, because he's short.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    I nearly wet myself listening to the radio here they have a load of comedians on singing how Trapatoni is going to use Joe Coleman (joe's the guy who had everyone at Knock shrine for an impromtu vision quest) to call down gods wrath on the French.

    Aparrently Trap is going to put the numbers on the jersey's on the front so Domenech and co think were attacking all the time.

    We need to get our predictions in!


    England B - France 1-1. Possibly 0-0 or, God forbid, 1-0.


    Or so Venus standing in Jupiter would seem to indicate.

    Well done to France.

    Talent will out, it seems - even if it only turns up for the second half.

    Some commentators here are actually pleased about losing 1-0. In Paris, the French players might not even bother and may send their valets instead. Mind you, even in that case there's not much hope for Ireland to actually put the ball, you know, in the net.

    Ah well, enough of the tiresome round ball. Time for Australia.

    If I were Irish, I'd be outraged!

    But I'm not, so I'm not going to get to worked up. Sad day for the beautiful game, though.

    I don't see what complaints Ireland could have. Henry won the game with a legitimate 3 pointer in added time.

    It is all very dissapointing. Even if you win, the fun and pride are gone.


    Meanwhile, as unsympathitic as it may be to post the video below, it should serve to add some sense of perspective.

    Ireland-Georgia, only a few months ago, from this same qualification campaign. The referee awards Ireland a penalty, after an Irish player (Keane?) raises his hand to ask for a penalty, ostensibly accusing a Georgian player of playing the ball with his arm. Very unsportsmanlike, and an amazingly incorrect refreeing decision. The score was 1-0 for Georgia with less than twenty minutes left. Ireland converted the penalty and went on to win the game.

    It is a near copy, mirrored, of what happened yesterday. This game, the Irish did not want to have replayed, and they do not consider the crime of the century.

    Indeed. It's traditional.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.
