Football round-up

Both Scotland and England produced good performances and results but in a lacklustre performance Worthington’s Northern Ireland stumbled against bottom of the group Latvia losing 1-0 (a Baird own goal making the defeat more painful). UPDATE Republic of Ireland end up with a 2-2 draw after an injury-time Slovakian goal and Welsh woes continue with a 0-2 home defeat by Germany.

Fair Deal @ 05:53 PM

  1. WORTHINGTON MUST GO

    (Am I the first?)

  2. A bad day at the office for OWC, still should have taken at least a point from the game.

    Evans header late on summed up our luck tonight, we can still qualify but now it´s less likely.  Only a win in Iceland on Wednesday will do.

    I have three flights to catch to get there, glad I didn´t go to Riga now.

  3. Odd time for a roundup. I’m still listening to the match. Going well so far. 1-0 up.

    It’s called an update

  6. It says ‘round-up’ not ‘update’.

    1-1 now.

    Using ‘Update’ to add the two remaining results

  8. I see Gibson’s on the team-list.
    Courageous move by Stan.

    You can rest assure that Gibson will not play.  Staunton might look stupid but he´s not.

  10. Staunton might look stupid but he´s not.

    Nope. Gibson’s on the list, whether he plays or not is immaterial.

    I’m hope nobody’s alerted the Slovakia FA to the fact.
    Cos that would be really petty.
    And the Republic would lose 3 points.

  11. 2-1 sweet.

    Posted by Fraggle on Sep 08, 2007 @ 07:45 PM
  12. Gibbo is on.

    He has to play, he has not fully represented ROI until he comes off the bench. Which he will not.

    Not that I really give a fuck about the fella anymore.

    Gibbo is it?

    Please pay attention. Otherwise you look like a fool.

  16. Dr Who,
    Sit back.
    Relax.
    Mr Gibson has just dropped both himself and the FAI in the smelly stuff.

    Name the most recent player to play two internationals on the same day

    ANSWER… Darren Gibson (gibbo ha,ha,ha), his first and his last.

  18. Dr. Who.
    Just enjoy the game. Support your fellow Ulsterman.

    Posted by  on Sep 08, 2007 @ 08:02 PM
  19. Doc...step back.

    That will only happen if people are sad nuff to report it.

    I think the vast majority of us living in the sick counties are slightly above that…

    Report what? The issue has been put to bed.

    Currently watching Wales and Germany on the net and Holland v Bulgaria on TV.

    BTW “gibbo” does not want to represent the Ulstermen.

    Posted by  on Sep 08, 2007 @ 08:08 PM
  22. Shay Given is an Ulsterman too.

    Posted by  on Sep 08, 2007 @ 08:09 PM
  23. Cahal

    True but unlike “gibbo” he qualifies to play for ROI.

    Posted by  on Sep 08, 2007 @ 08:12 PM
  24. Sure, but Northern Ireland are not the Ulstermen, just some Ulstermen.

  25. Report what? The issue has been put to bed
