Replying To jm25: "More sides then a 50p coin" I think that poster is best ignored. Ballina doing what I thought they would do. Mayo Senior club football is a joke. Our junior and intermediate championships are much more entertaining.

Why are some soccer fans giving out about gaa and rugby instead of enjoying the win ? What is the reason they feel the need to attack other sports on one of the great days in Irish soccer? Most people support all the teams

Replying To SouthGalway: "Did the Ireland Rugby team no harm." So Northern Ireland have an away Play Off v either Italy, Turkey, Poland or Ukraine!
The Republic of Ireland could be away to Scotland, Slovakia Cheq Republic or Wales.
If North Macedonia draw with Wales in last group game then the Republic could have home draw v either Kosovo, Bosnia, Albania or Wales.

Replying To Lockjaw: "Away from the rugby talk for a minute, I think it's absolutely fantastic that the Irish football team have restored a bit of pride and interest. Look - there's still a lot of work to do to qualify, we know that. But it's still nice to savour two brilliant victories. My young fella has already updated his Santa list from wanting an Mbappe Real Madrid jersey to wanting an Ireland shirt with Parrott on the back.
Growing up, we were so lucky to enjoy big tournaments that Ireland qualified for. I don't think anything else captivates the nation so much as when the Ireland team is involved in a major football tournament. The rugby lads do very well, but when football mania kicks in, it's a differeny story altogether." That's class. You'd forget there's a whole section of the young population that has never experienced Ireland doing well and the excitement it brings. We were spoiled growing up really. I hold my hands up, had big question marks over a few of those lads but they really redeemed themselves.
Obviously no international element to the GAA where you can get behind the a national team (not even going to pretend that farce Aussie rules plus Gaelic is worth watching) and rugby just does not come close to capturing the immagination or reaching every corner of the country. Bar the very staunch garrison sports people, most people from every county have played and followed soccer at some level, even at its most agricultural! There is no other sport that stirs national pride as much as the soccer team when they are competing with the best. As someone from a family and part of the country that has lost a lot of people to immigration, the pride and joy that brings the diaspora as well is phenomenal and can't be underestimated.

Callinan I thought was one of Ballinas clear stand out players yesterday. The main problem for Ballina yesterday was their game plan and poor match ups, Roscommon Gaels did similar against Brigids recently and suffered a similar defeat.
O'Hora for example who was a late inclusion to the starting team seem to be in no man's land with the role he was given with a lot of the game roaming around the half forward line, surely he should be in a set position in the spine of defence?

Replying To alalalalalum: "That's nice news. But have it on your own thread. Maybe your championship is improving and other clubs have decided to stop it becoming a one team affair. Super." I don't have my own thread or championship I'm a neutral correcting you and delivering nice news that a bit of research goes a long way.

Replying To GreenandRed: "Dunno. Conor Murray form better? They can't be guaranteed that an Irish player's form would keep them out of the team when they're eligible." Or maybe they didnt bring him over in the 1st place? Maybe he wanted to come here to get a job playing rugby for Leinster?

ABE and the North teams.

Replying To Gaa_lover: "My neutrality is super thanks. I'll mention any county when any lack of research is done on a topic as you posted on here.
Better to give credit where it's due. As most certainly would giving it to Leitrim if they had clubs reaching or winning Senior,Intermediate Connacht titles." And you randomly came into Leitrim forum and went to the hassle of doing "research" please even though you're not from Roscommon thanks. Nobody would remotely believe that thanks so million.

Absolutely sport, film, music are great, if you followed the line of thinking through of everything British is bad then you won't be eating roses or turkey at Christmas.

Replying To FullOfPorter: "Are we better off getting someone like Turkey who we'll be underdogs against but well capable of getting a result if its approached like the last two games? Favourites tag doesn't suit us and you'd nearly be afraid they'd revert back to how we approached Aremnia if we got the likes of Kosovo." The Republic can't draw Turkey but Northern Ireland can.
Turkey are Pot 1, the Republic are Pot 3 but could move upto Pot 2 iF North Macedonia win or draw v Wales.
Semi Finals
Pot 1 v Pot 4
Pot 2 v Pot 3.
All Pot 1 and Pot 2 teams are home
All Pot 3 and Pot 4 teams are away.

Replying To alalalalalum: "I support the team that draws players from all 32 counties of the island and are proud to represent that nation. The other team on the island has players that are proud to play for that particular small pocket of the island and fair play to them for doing so. I have no interest in supporting that team, as it is hypocritical. Why would I want another nation to do as well as my own nation?" There's always been plenty lads from a nationalist background play for the 6 counties team.
