Where do we go from here?

Can Ireland recover form against the Czech Republic on Wednesday and if not should Steve Staunton remain as manager?

Pat Devlin, former manager Bray Wanderers: “In soccer you can always turn things around and I hope Ireland can do that on Wednesday.”

Damian Richardson, manager Cork City: “Everyone will be looking for a performance full of pride and passion on Wednesday to try and restore what was lost against Cyprus which was completely unacceptable and lacking in organisation. Anything is possible, especially at such a difficult venue as Lansdowne Road and if we have a performance full of pride in the Irish jersey, then maybe we can redeem something. But, if we get a repeat of Saturday’s performance we will have to look to him to take responsibility.”
