Robin101 Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Big game this. O'Dowda doesn't start, but could be involved. Who does everyone want to win? Ireland for me, no question.
slartibartfast Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 So ,in a game they must win Ireland have dropped Co'D ! **** 'em come on Wales (until he gets on the pitch) .

Lanterne Rouge Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Ireland. Get our boy to the World Cup so he can tear it up in front of millions.
Lanterne Rouge Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 No surprise really given he did the full 90 v Moldova. With the players coming back I`d have been surprised if he had started. Come on after 80 and get the winner would do!
Carey 6 Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Can't believe they've dropped Hoolahan. Hopefully they draw and the Croats win.
pride of the west Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 It would be great to see odowda in the world cup. He will stand out in an otherwise ordinary RoI side. His value will sky rocket. Just look at the hype around Robson kanu off the back of that one goal at the euros

Is he good enough to be starting, really? With Brady and McGeady in contention for places it'd be silly to just expect him to get games.
Super Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Thought he did enough to start tonight. Decision to drop him strange for me.
Leveller Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 I don't have Sky but have discovered you can watch it on S4C live, via BBC iPlayer (even though S4C is presumably not BBC). Its in Welsh of course! Except when Coleman is interviewed.

He was out of contract and available for free for anyone who'd have him.

Red Army 75 Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Well at least the Welsh can sing . Come on Ireland
Maltshoveller Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 That is the one thing the welsh do better than anybody

Leveller Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 So far, if you squinted, you could be forgiven for thinking it's Man U v Yeovil.
ChippenhamRed Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Can't understand why they don't host massive games like this at the Millennium. It would have sold out for a game as big as this. Fans miss out on tickets and the Welsh FA miss out on money. Odd one.
One Team In Keynsham Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Is there a scenario of results that means that the 2nd place in this group fails to make the play-offs? Come on [insert one or more European countries here]!

Lanterne Rouge Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Nine games on in Europe tonight. Not one goal in any of them.
Robbored Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 High tempo match with the Welsh on top. Why can't England play like it?.........

I think CCS has become a bit of a fortress for them so I understand it to a point. But I'm still surprised to see a massive game being played in a 35k stadium with a 70k stadium sitting empty a few miles down the road.
Leveller Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Ireland have to win don't they? Presumably not playing for a draw - but only Wales seem to be trying to win.

But with the smaller ground you do get a much more intense atmosphere. Which should help the players. Saying that I'm basing that on England. With the atmosphere at Wembley being probably the worst in football. When Wembley was being rebuilt and England played around the country. The atmospheres were much better. Sorry to go off topic

Sorry to go off topic Yeah I do appreciate the counter argument and there's no doubting the atmosphere at CCS is incredible. It also disproves the theory that modern stadia make for crap atmospheres. But having said that, the Millennium is more intimate than Wembley and capable of generating phenomenal atmospheres too! Looking on twitter a lot of the Wales supporters seem to have a bit of a superfan view about it - "if you didn't come when we were crap why should you come now". Never really liked that mentality. I would always rather see my team welcome more support, rather than behaving like some sort of exclusive club.
