foxes_rule1978 Posted 8 October 2015 Posted 8 October 2015 Imagine if Germany went out Think they are already through... as Ireland and Poland the only teams that can catch them play each other... I think a draw would leave Germany above poland even if Germany lost. I could be wrong not sure of Germany's results against Poland... regardless Germany will get the needed point against Georgia

I could be wrong not sure of Germany's results against Poland... regardless Germany will get the needed point against Georgia They could all end of 19 points I think. Which means you're right I guess, they are already through. I'm confused.
bovril Posted 8 October 2015 Posted 8 October 2015 In the words of Keegan I would luv it if O'Neill goes and gets Ireland the point they need on Sunday.
foxes_rule1978 Posted 8 October 2015 Posted 8 October 2015 In the words of Keegan I would luv it if O'Neill goes and gets Ireland the point they need on Sunday. Same here, people gave him stick earlier when things didn't quite go his way, but got it all back on track and in prime position to secure that auto place with just a point needed
foxes_rule1978 Posted 8 October 2015 Posted 8 October 2015 Just seen on BBC Poland and Ireland hold a better head to head record than Germany, so Germany haven't made it yet. Ireland can go through with a draw but need it to be at least 2-2.. 1-1 or 0-0 means Poland go through... Crazy
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 8 October 2015 Posted 8 October 2015 Ireland Poland game is in fact a playoff game in itself now in many ways. Hoping Poland win as the girlfriend is Polish but as MON is there i could see Ireland nicking a 1-0. Poland weren't good tonight
Dan Posted 8 October 2015 Posted 8 October 2015 They could all end of 19 points I think. Which means you're right I guess, they are already through. I'm confused. I don't know if head to head plays a part, but the permutations are that Poland and Ireland need to draw whilst Germany somehow lose 0-10 at home to Georgia. The fact it's Poland v Ireland is what pretty much sends them through. In the words of Keegan I would luv it if O'Neill goes and gets Ireland the point they need on Sunday. They need three. Poland's equaliser at Scotland means they need a win for 2nd and not a draw.
MC Prussian Posted 8 October 2015 Posted 8 October 2015 No sympathies for Albania after tonight's performance. Serbia ran out deserved winners with two very late goals - they should've scored at least twice earlier, anyway. However, the "Kombëtarje" can still clinch a EURO 2016 berth with a win in Armenia on Sunday.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 8 October 2015 Posted 8 October 2015 Ireland cam draw and go through. But has to be 2-2 or more. Almost like a PO game with a way goals but aways goals start at 2 goals not one

Not true, head to head is what determines who goes through after points... then it is away goals... in that case Ireland go through with a 2-2 draw or more... Germany go out if they lose to Georgia by any scoreline if the Ireland Poland game ends as a draw, Germany have the worst head to head against both Ireland and Poland

That's good then although there's basically no way Germany won't win that.
Nalis Posted 9 October 2015 Posted 9 October 2015 Regardless of the permutations prior to last night, still can't believe our wee country are through to the major championship! From what I'm hearing back home, tickets for the Norn Iron games could be harder to come back than I originally thought... Also, well done to Republic of Ireland, fantastic win against the world champions.

Whoever finishes 3rd goes into a playoff game.

RowlattsFox Posted 9 October 2015 Posted 9 October 2015 Who is likely to be the best third place team? As they go straight through I think. Do Ireland have a chance?
The Horse's Mouth Posted 9 October 2015 Posted 9 October 2015 Who is likely to be the best third place team? As they go straight through I think. Do Ireland have a chance? Bosnia probably
bovril Posted 9 October 2015 Posted 9 October 2015 Maybe next Euro's they'll invite 32 teams and then even Scotland can play in it. I think they'd still find a way to miss out. The Scots love glorious failures, they'd be devastated if they actually achieved something.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 9 October 2015 Posted 9 October 2015 Not really as they can both go through. Whoever finishes 3rd goes into a playoff game. Yeah I'm aware of that but for auto qualification it is like a playoff game in terms of winner goes through. Only difference is loser still has a chance
bovril Posted 9 October 2015 Posted 9 October 2015 Welsh fans are going to be gutted when they get to Bosnia and realise all the sheep have been slaughtered for Bayram.
foxes_rule1978 Posted 9 October 2015 Posted 9 October 2015 Belgium will top the world rankings of they beat both Andorra and Isreal, further illustrates what a farce it really is... just scrap that rubbish means nothing
Guest Posted 9 October 2015 Posted 9 October 2015 Belgium will top the world rankings of they beat both Andorra and Isreal, further illustrates what a farce it really is... just scrap that rubbish means nothing Funny isn't it? What odds Belgium to win the next World Cup?
LanguedocFox Posted 9 October 2015 Posted 9 October 2015 Who is likely to be the best third place team? As they go straight through I think. Do Ireland have a chance? If Ireland beat Poland, or get more than two goals in a draw, Ireland will go through automatically.
