I am 100% for Northern Ireland when they play, even if the game itself is a hard watch. Shame the FAI and IFA don't merge for the sake of the people. suckvalleypaddy (Galway) - Posts: 1770 - 15/11/2025 16:39:05 2644583 Link
Replying To combo: "I was happy the soccer team won just to shut up the gang at off the ball lol They thought they knew it all and kenny was the next pep. they ran mick out of the job before they needed to" Same here. I was just delighted to see that Heimer got to poke people like Dunphy in the eye. Freethinker (Wicklow) - Posts: 1932 - 15/11/2025 16:43:05 2644586 Link

I for one don't want them to merge because the first thing that will happen is the tricolour will disappear and so will the anthem, we'll be left with...Ireland's call...shudder.

Yeah that would work well, especially with all we have in common Bon (Kildare) - Posts: 2585 - 15/11/2025 17:15:11 2644596 Link
Replying To SouthGalway: "I have friends up there. Something different. Tired of the usual teams getting there all the time. And hey: why not?" Northern Ireland play nice decent passing football.....missing a good reliable keeper and regular goalscorer upfront! katser (Galway) - Posts: 2750 - 15/11/2025 17:38:42 2644603 Link
Replying To Freethinker: "Same here. I was just delighted to see that Heimer got to poke people like Dunphy in the eye." Agreed. The Manager's post match reaction was classy. He could have put Tony O'Donoghue back in his box big time but just made one quip about 'so you keep reminding me'. Hopefully they win on Sunday. slayer (Limerick) - Posts: 6627 - 15/11/2025 18:02:14 2644607 Link
I'm for Norn Ireland in the soccer, time to bury the hatchet lads, they got their 1998 agreement fair and square, get over it already. They never, ever need to unite with the FAI. maroondiesel (Mayo) - Posts: 1243 - 15/11/2025 19:35:57 2644621 Link
Lads here seem to be getting Irish soccer backwards on here. The IFA are still administering the game in the North. And are still called the Irish Football Association. The FAI broke away, not the other way around. Viking66 (Wexford) - Posts: 17527 - 15/11/2025 21:14:35 2644640 Link

Replying To Saynothing: "Ireland win another friendly in the Rugby." Yes, and despite winning we still have dropped from 3rd to 4th in the World rankings, after England beat the All blacks. https://www.planetrugby.com/news/latest-world-rugby-rankings-england-displace-ireland-after-emphatic-victory-over-the-all-blacks Viking66 (Wexford) - Posts: 17527 - 16/11/2025 07:13:46 2644686 Link
Replying To Saynothing: "Ireland win another friendly in the Rugby." Watched it. There was very little friendly about it. I also watched Athy v Summerhill. Question for the experts on here. Since when is hauling a player down, almost, if not in, the square, not a black card ?? Freethinker (Wicklow) - Posts: 1932 - 16/11/2025 09:14:40 2644692 Link
Replying To Saynothing: "Ireland win another friendly in the Rugby." Brialliant performance, I hope next week's game is a friendly too if that's the case,sure we're a great little country. supersub15 (Carlow) - Posts: 3307 - 16/11/2025 09:36:45 2644695 Link

You can thank Jamie Bryson loving Joe Brolly for that one, no need for black cards as all refs have different punishments. Stick to the yellow card and fair play to any man or woman who saves their team a goal by hauling an opponent down. Saynothing (Tyrone) - Posts: 2471 - 16/11/2025 11:58:22 2644707 Link

I think that if IRL had played NZ at the end of these games we might have a different result. In my opinion SA, France, England and probably / possibly NZ are ahead of Ireland at this point in time Freethinker (Wicklow) - Posts: 1932 - 16/11/2025 12:30:06 2644714 Link
Just watching the build up to the soccer here on RTE, one thing mystifies me about soccer pundits, the pundits saying here that we must win tonight etc. it's the middle of the day in my time zone anyway? Tirchonaill1 (Donegal) - Posts: 3561 - 16/11/2025 13:39:31 2644720 Link
