After another night when Ireland beat another country that is going to the WC it makes me even more angry and sad at what might have been only for that lad who thought he was on trials that night for the Harlem Globe Trotters.

Tonight we beat Algeria 3-0 and earlier in the week we beat Paraguay 2-1, just makes me think what might have been.

It pretty certain we’d have drawn one African team and one South American, so if we were in a group stage at the WC right now you could say we’d have had 2 wins, 6 points and only one more game to play most likely a European team, we’d have been well on the way to round two.

I just know I’m going to be so depressed when the whole thing start and we’re not there.

Thanks Thierry.
