The luck of the Irish
In a dramatic night of Football, Ireland had to endure the misery of getting knocked out of the World Cup play offs, in controversial circumstances.
Having already been roundly stitched up by the late decision to seed the play offs and thus drawing the French, Ireland had already achieved a fantastic result by winning 1-0 in normal time and forcing the game into the extra 30 minutes.
Michel Platini must have been knawing on his croissants as the French struggled to put together any sort of cohesive football. Paddy Power were offering odds of 8/1 on the Irish qualifying pre-match and they came so close to realising this dream.
Eventually it was with a big helping hand from the normally honest Thierry Henry as the French "cheated" their way through - the debate is sure to rage and rage and we here at Bigtips can't help but feel sorry for Trapattoni's men.
