oh dear! well the news is not good. Ireland got a drubbing last night, a 4-0 hammering at the hands of Spain's elite. They didnt follow my grand plan as suggested above, but carried on regardless and once again they were a goal down in 3 minutes. That's the Irish speciality it seems, handicap yourself right from the word go and see if you can make a comeback.
Unfortunately the Irish team were ball chasing all night and couldnt get a kick..the long ball down the middle suggestion cant work if you dont have the ball in the first place. This has got to be the worst Irish team I ever remember. One longs for the best days..those under Jack Charlton.
Spain are a different class altogether but still a better effort was required...I prayed for it to stop before it all got worse.
