Here's how Twitter reacted to Ireland v Kazakhstan
Users of the site were not happy with the Irish performance this evening, as #TrapOut began trending.
Disgraceful performance against such weak opposition.
Null and void of attacking ideas.
Really poor show!!
A win is all we needed. Well done to the Irish team and bad luck to all the begrudgers. So many hateful people on here.
Margaret whilst your comment is well meaning, it smacks of someone who doesn’t understand or even watch football. This is possibly the worst performance from an Ireland team I’ve ever seen. It’s just embarrassing to watch.
Kevin, it smacks of amateur trolling is what it does…
Good job the clueless euros supporters weren’t there or they’d have got a standing ovation and a 30 min version of fields of Athenry
I think you fail to understand why people sung at the Euro’s. It was out of love for Ireland, not because of the performance of the team. They weren’t singing “you’ll never beat the Irish”, they sung a song about heart break at facing a hopeless situation, pretty fitting if you ask me.
As for tonight, terrible. The fact that we won is immaterial considering the performance. I can hear people calling for Traps head and I can say nothing to them tonight after that performance AND strategy
It’s a song about a petty thief from Galway.
Chris, would you steal a bit of corn from a wealthy landlord planted by an occupying nation in order to feed your starving family?
Ian I understand perfectly you just have a different opinion as to why the Irish sang when the national team were being played off the pitch…it was idiotic to me and please don’t give me the love of Ireland drivel…I’ve been to plenty of Irish away matches but the supporters at the euros we’re bandwagon idiots that switched away from Santa ponsa for a Year
were you in Poland ?
Anyone I was there with sang in recognition of the fans, it had zero to do with the team and the fans were angry with both the team and manager.
Just cause someone on tv said we were showing our support to the players doesn’t make it the case
we were very lucky tonight. it could have been a total disaster
Stephen it WAS a total disaster!!
Margaret this is a squad of very well paid full time professional footballers playing against a country ranked 142st on the planet.
Really bad ‘performance’.
Who ranked us 26th?
Who ranked England 3rd?
thats all the luck used up and its only the first game
Liam Brady is a bollocks
Well he’s definitely a Trap man.
Volumes spoken when a sub is “man of the match”
How Brady can justify that performance uknow where his loyalties lie – it was written all over his face-
And John giles tryin to stay between the lines with it won’t come out and say whatever is thinking and trap
All about the result my arse- all he didn’t say was how dare u question my authority as manager – just leave will ya
Erm, not to sure about the Paralympics one. Bit disrespectful to those great athletes. Even if was a comment from a young child, she’s not the one who decided to publish it.
my thoughts exactly
Shocking display!!! Wish they were beaten!!!! This is there full time job/hobby!! Jokeshop
Looks like Kazakhstan did a Shels.
Jesus Christ, I’d rather watch ducks in a pond… With the players available we should be giving it a go at least. I’d rather lose a match showing a bit of gusto and flare than watch a qualifying campaign full of that shite. Trap, thanks, but you’re grand..now cheerio
I could not agree more with this comment. For the first time in 30 years I didn’t bother to watch Ireland because they are so dull. Actually I think ducks is too good. I would rather get a big auld bucket of paint, fxxk it against a wall and watch it dry.
It didn’t go to plan I will hate to see what Germany or Sweden will do to us horrible match to watch
Sounds like I made the correct choice and squeezed one last BBQ out of the “summer”!
Fair play to all the Irish fans who were at the game. Thats Loyalty for you.
Missing the McClean tweet here…
Hi Irish Red,
We did a separate story on that. Here’s the link: http://jrnl.ie/588588
Thanks Paul
my eyes hurt
why did ronnie whelan insist on picking a “man of the match”?
radical change needed.
Man of the match was the ref for blowing his whistle to end that nightmare
Whelan should have picked McClean as man of the match, I would have. Fair play to Sadlier he is not afraid to speak the truth and challenge the “senior analysts”
All the customers in the pub will be sozzled tonight, What a result.
I didn’t watch it as I figured it’d. e another dreadful farce. seems I was right on both counts.
At least the Irish fans in Kazakhstan can have a good night.
All I can say was that we were Jammy. I think N.Ireland and Rep of Ireland teams should merge and we have one team, like the Rugby team, for the island of Ireland, we might even get a half decent team!
I would like to apply for the job. Could do with a career change. I will let the players decide themselves who should play ! I couldn’t do any worse then the crap played tonight
Stephen McMahon take a bow….ur were spot onnnnnnnnnnnnn.
In my opinion the Irish team should be lining out with , Westwood rb.kelly/coleman cb. O Shea and dunne lb.ward/Cunningham rm. mcgeady cm.(and this is where I’m going to be slated) Gibson and Doyle lm.mclean fw. Long Walters, we need Gibson back in the squad badly but even if he does come back trap will let him rot on the bench
Slight problem in that Dunne ha retired.
Dunne did not retire, duff and given did dunne is injured
if it was the world cup final and we came back and won 2-1 would we still be reading comments like this. At this stage result is all that matters. New squad, all the greats have bailed out, will take time. Borat land were unbeaten in their last 4 at home
Rubbish rubbish rubbish that’s what your comment and how the team played last night is, there has been very little change since duff and given retired instead of using James McLean he puts Simon cox on the wing what the hell is he playing at, it’s a joke there is so many young players like Greg cunningham seamus Coleman robbie Brady who should be starting never mind being in the squad, I’ve supported trap up til last night but now he has to go we would be better off with Richie saidler in charge
