Football 10/11: vs FYR Macedonia

Posted on Mar 28, 2011 by NFB

Yet another unconvincing performance from this Irish team, a team that continues to stumble their way to results. Injury ridden, prone to mistakes, convincing only against very weak opposition. We were lucky in that Macedonia had a very dodgy keeper, one … Continue reading →

Sportsball (World Cup 2010), Matchday Five

Posted on Jun 15, 2010 by NFB

New Zealand 1-1 Slovakia The NZs are a very lucky team. At times they were all over the place. Their keeper was wobbly. Their attack was non-existant most of the game. But, because Slovakia refused to kill the game off when they had … Continue reading →
