What a group the Irish have pulled in next years Euro championships .... Fantastic . Wish it was Scotland .

Spain , Italy and Croatia you couldn't ask for a better draw . Luck of the Irish right enough . Good luck to them i for one will be watching every game they play .

i'm hoping to be in spain for the group matches.....will be shouting (lod as possible in an english bar) for BFD and the rest

ROI will fancy their chances, although they wont shout about it...

Ah see that's different matter altogether . 15 Scots shouting for whoever's playing Engurland in and English bar is not a problem . You do it yourself your gonne get bother mate .

It's like me walking by Linekar's in Tenerife wearing my Scotland top and the yokels giving me dogs and me firing the can of beer i was drinking right into the middle of the baying hoards . Doesn't go down well

At least Trap had the crazy idea of playing guys in their proper positions and getting the best from them. Avril is plenty negative, just a bit thick tae

FFS the Italian medallion even played a striker in every qualifying match . Honestly can't believe people on here complaining about negative tactics of Trapatoni when we have to put up wiith Levein . Well i suppose if your watching from afar (through your great great grannies eyes) you might not be happy with the way your "nation" qualified for a major championships . Me i would jst be happy to be in the mix .

Exactly, anyone complaining about a manager getting a relatively small fish into the big pond is aff their nut. So what if they get humped, at least they have the opportunity to compete

The group their in is a godsend . No pressure what so ever . No one expects them to do anything against Spain and Italy and even Croatia are a tough task . They can just go out and enjoy themselves wouldn't bet against them taking points of any of those sides btw .

With the pressure off I wouldn't be surprised to see a wee shock somewhere
