Well done my cousins.

France 2016 will be far richer for having the entire Emerald Island there.

Thanks my friend

We sure do know how to party

Next stop, Russia! I'm hoping Canada makes it to the World Cup, but that's kind of laughable, so I'm happy for any country that qualifies.

the penalty came from nowhere

Well done. I am genuinely, hand on heart, very very very very very PLEASED FOR YOU.

Sorry, that just slipped out.

In seriousness though, well in Ireland, you can do this!

True, but we never have any luck, so this was our turn.

We've had some bad decisions go against us in the past, Henry's handball being a prime example.

So we happily accept the penalty decision, and anyway we scored again so....

Thanks beansidhe

I really really really REALLY wish our Celtic cousins could join us, but you were in our group.

We're oot, but you're in and that is good enough for me.
I'm backing Ireland all the way, cousin.

a reply to: beansidhe

Sounds good to me

Don't know if an Englishmans comments matter to you but there are 2 nations that make the world cup experience great.
Republic of Ireland and Scotland. May not have the best teams but definitely the best fans and the biggest hearts.
Brazil might light up the pitch but you lot light up the town holding it
Do yourself proud in France.

I will try to watch Denmark vs Sweden tonight or England vs France, Belgium vs Spain friendly has been cancelled because of terror threat.

I Know im English and have a duty of support but I cant help always feeling let down by slackers in the squad.
I always have more enjoyment and more passion for the game after watching your teams give everything. Even Wales are having a great time.
Like you I cannot wait.
