I Make No Apologies For Making a Thread Out Of This

Because beating a team that's ranked 65 places higher than you is something to savour! What a display. Three great goals and it looks like David Healy is now officially a Northern Ireland legend. Won't be long before Sir Alex is chasing him It's a year to the day since we beat England too. Is wee NI now the giant killers of Europe?



Oh yeah, and that Crouch goal was never in! :P

Err, which game where you watching? Must of been the tears of winning for once that affecting you eye sight.

Funny France beat Italy 3-1

great result for you wee lads. well done.

and you need glasses. altho i suspect you're just looking for a bite.....

The goal was more in than the one scored in 66, however giant killers???? beat a team65 places above you, but lose to team ranked below you 3-0, When you can beat all then you might be giant killers

H

Gone fishing..............




Good win, though

runt, the job of a giant killer isn't to beat every team. Playing consistently poorly against equal or lesser opposition and then claiming the scalps of several big teams is the hallmark of a true giant killing team

I'm disappointed with France; had money on them to win the World Cup. Just my luck they loose the wrong match

And I am not looking for a bite! Next you're going to tell me Ashley Cole wasn't behind the line! :P

No he was in front of the line, but lucky where the ball dropped, cant say England played at all well but they ground out a result. Against better oposition cant see us winning anything. Most of the lauded players of the last two games were absent. Crouch was lucky to score but should have had a penalty in the first half.
The ref was appaulling. If this is the new football it wont be long till they're playing in American style pads. Its enough of a pantomime now with the dives and rolling about, but the way the ref went about it last night. They coundnt even blowon a player without getting a foul given.

you've sort of contradicted yourself in that message. you said the lauded players were absent, yet you then say how pants the ref was. and you're right. on both counts! the ref was awful, he stopped and started the game so much there was no flow, nobody had any time on the ball, hence the "bigger boys" couldn't shine. best player on the night was JT by a mile. lampard was rubbish. again. gerrard was quiet but i guess that comes with the territory of being out wide.

it was a 6/10 performance. got the job done, thats about it.
