Congrats...
to the Irish team on a superb effort in qualifying for the next round.
With all the turmoil that surrounded the Ireland camp just over a week ago, this is an even greater accomplishment. Not only have they qualified, but they have done so playing a solid brand of football. Unlike England the front 2 work their bollocks of in defence as well as attack. Many 'jouneymen pros' have stepped up to the plate and given a great account of themselves. MM's tactical switch that saw Dunn play on the left and effectively snuff out the right side of the SA attack was inspirational. Kudos too to the IFA for extending MMs contract BEFORE Ireland had secured a spot in the next round. Ballsy and right.
Roy Keane really must be feeling like a complete tit right now. Couldn't happen to a nicer bloke. Wanker.
