Ya the Lingard thing was just coming to say, absolutely insane

Lingard is not going to contribute at the Euro's

why bother calling anyone up, they have 21 healthy players and you can only name 18 in a side

Also if he doesn't start Stones ahead of Jones tuesday with Smalling I don't know what to do, that has to be the pairing next summer

Ireland looking good now up 3-1 on aggregate with 15 minutes to go. What a catastrophe to not qualify now.

Bosnia's keeper Asmir Begovic should should be playing for Canada.

Although I don't blame him for going back to play for the country of his birth and at least a chance at Euros and WC.

Yeah no doubt about the penalty. Usually Ireland are getting stiffed with questionable hand balls, this time it goes their way. One can only dream of an Ireland-Northern Ireland match at some point. I think they're in the same pot so no pool matchup.

I wonder if that was an even-up call by UEFA after the famous Henry handball.

Speaking as someone that was living in Belfast and within walking distance of Windsor Park the last time they played .... no thanks. The security that night was something else.

I blame Dale Mitchell for not cap tying him when he had the chance.

You mean not cap tying him when he was already cap tied? Playing for us in the U-20 World Cup had committed him to Canada. It was only later that FIFA changed their rules to only tie players based on senior games that are continental cup or World Cup qualifiers/games which gave Begovic a chance to change his mind. I blame Begovic for screwing over the country that developed him.

I had hockey Friday night, so regretfully missed our CMNT team play.

Other side of the pond, early indications are Carrick's ligament injury isn't as bad as first thought. Fingers crossed.

Also, looks like the French/English "friendly"is a go-ahead tomorrow in the face of those terrorist scum. I imagine security is going to be off the charts.

Yeah, a friend of mine over there has tickets and isnt sure hes going to go. I was wondering why and he just said:

"It kind of feels like bait."
