Justice pour l'Irlande
Well, about as much justice as we can hope for.
France finished bottom of their group at the World Cup, losing 2-1 to South Africa today. Their miserable campaign has included two losses, in-fighting, resignations, player strikes, players sent home, red cards and unhappy French politicians.
Is there a moral to this story? Probably. How about don't cheat your way to a World Cup? I'm not saying Ireland would have done much had we qualified, but we couldn't have been as pathetic as this disgraceful French team.
On top of everything else, Raymond Domenech refused to shake hands with the South African manager at the end of the game.
What an imbécile!

The Most Important Thing In The World...
That's right. Football.
C'mon Ireland!!!!!!
For those who don't know, Ireland are in a two-leg playoff with France to reach the World Cup Finals in South Africa next summer. France are 25 places ahead of Ireland in the world rankings (9th vs 34th) but I still think we can do it. The French public (and some of the players) can't stand their manager, Raymond Domenech. He has neglected to pick players before based on their star sign!!! And he even got booed by the crowd at the French masters last week. Look at the players laughing as the crowd boo him!! - video is of poor quality

Edit: We played quite well but lost 1-0 thanks to a deflected shot........ Gutted!
