Ireland still shite at football
The Republic of Ireland are still shite at football and will continue to be shite for the foreseeable future. That’s the depressing verdict after the boys in green were beaten 2-0 in Dublin last night by Greece.
Ireland started brightly and were the better team during the opening 30 seconds but were kinda shite after that.
Hilariously there are still Irish fans who insist we have the players to compete at international level despite most of our squad playing in the second and third tiers of English football. Although these are the same fans who claimed Stephen Kenny was the problem and if we just sacked him and got a new manager everything would be great.
After last night’s game, new Ireland manager Heimir Hallgrimsson was asked why Ireland were shite.
“We were shite because most of our players are shite. There’s not a lot I can do about that. It’s a shite squad.”
The FAI confirmed this morning that they have contacted the Football Association of Lapland to organise a friendly match in the hope of getting a much needed win. Lapland, who only have five players, are just above Ireland in the FIFA world rankings in 531st place.
