    Good point but he didn't agree not to post on our board he was banned so there is a slight difference.

    I shall now leave you in peace.

    Have a nice day.

    I didn't think SSL had that bad a game. Okay for the last goal he should have done better but overall, he had a decent game. The main problem was that Ireland's midfield sat far too deep and didn't press the ball. Modric had acres of space to run the show.

    .. agreed ... but weren't the Irish fans brilliant ... their team was pretty much outclassed, they were robbed of a nailed on penalty. yet all you could hear at the end of the game was 'The Fields Of Athenry' echoing around the satdium ... awesome support

    Useless fact of the day - Four of the Irish 23 are current or ex-Hull City players.

    They played your talentless bastard, our talentless bastard remained firmly glued to the bench, so the loss is obviously down to you. <ok>

    Alternatively you could make a case that, without our talentless bastard they would have lost by more ...

    Another point to make is that the ITV commentators said Jelavic was the first Premier League player to score in the Euros (great goal btw), yet St. Ledger was in fact the first English-based (and English seeing as he's from Birmingham, let's hope he's not the only English player to score this tournament). ITV also wrongly, as usual, stated that he hadn't scored all season for Leicester, ignoring his goal against Norwich in the FA Cup. Classic ITV

    Technically, they're not wrong on either count. St. Ledger isn't a Prem player and they said he hadn't scored a league goal all season.

    They actual said "he hadn't scored a goal in the CHAMPIONSHIP all season."
    So they were actually right

    I think the Ledge may have reduced his price after that defending!

    Garbage defending from Ledger and Ward for the Torres goal.

    TBH, you have to say he should have done better for all the goals.

    But the Spanish team were incredible tonight - granted, Ireland made it easier for them.
