Gleason will never r win anything with this team. Bring back Vera Pau and stop treating Mc Cabe as the Messiah.
It’s inane that they are exempt from criticism from both George and Stephanie in the commentary.
Stephanie going as far as Ireland have had a right go, when exactly was this, it’s been an abysmal performance.
Cmon Eileen
Can’t string 2 passes together when they get over the halfway line. McCabe throwing a strop when she gives the ball away. Abysmal performance yet again from an Irish team.
Wheels are coming off now. Bring back Vera
Just play soccer and don’t be eyeing up the Swedish girls
WOMENS rep of Ireland v Sweden
@reg morrisey: well if you’re going down that road, it should be Womens rep of Ireland v Womens Sweden. No?
Vera Pauw eh? Poor manager. Poor person manager. All down to the players etc etc etc. ok.
Bad performance again. Im sure Katie & her buddies will be plotting to stab Eileen in the back.
@conor carroll: Eileen is her buddy, two of a kind, one as bad as the other.
