Geed Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Whats everyone wanting he, ahh think a draw be a great result for Scotland but few folk i know reckon a Poland win be good Recent results between 2 sides prove game be very close November 2013: Poland 0-0 Rep of Ireland - friendly February 2013: Rep of Ireland 2-0 Poland - friendly November 2008: Rep of Ireland 2-3 Poland April 2004: Rep of Ireland 0-0 Poland November 1991: Poland 3-3 Rep of Ireland May 1991: Rep of Ireland 0-0 Poland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParisInAKilt Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Ideally a draw. Poland victory could make securing at least 3rd a lot easier. Looking forward to watching this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ANDYP Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Players to have a mass brawl and both teams disqualified or points deducted would be nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus_Young Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Draw all the way. We are capable of beating them both so we want both sides to drop points. Not saying we will beat them either, I think all 3 sides are capable of beating each other just think we should be aiming higher than the play off spot is all.

wanderer Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Best result for us is anything other than a Irish victory, with the draw basically meaning whoever wins the game in Dublin this June is getting 3rd spot minimum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girvanTA Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 2-2 draw with red cards galore, I dont really want players getting injured but so be it, enough till the end of season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParisInAKilt Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Irish victory would put them in a strong position. 3 more home games against us Germany and Georgia. They would be confident of picking up at least 4 points from those games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rory Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I would say a Poland win then if we beat the Irish in June that would be them just about out of the running. Secure a playoff spot ASAP then look to 1st & 2nd from there! Nerves wouldn't be able to handle going into last few games with all top 4 teams in with a good shout of qualification.

Secure a playoff spot ASAP then look to 1st & 2nd from there! Nerves wouldn't be able to handle going into last few games with all top 4 teams in with a good shout of qualification. Poland win, and we go to Dublin with the group looking like, Poland 13 Germany 10 Scotland 10 Ireland 7 Win in Dublin and we go 6 points clear with us and Ireland having effectively the same home run stretch.... ie they have Germany H and Poland A, while we have Germany and Poland both at Hampden..... we both have Gibraltar to play, so really Ireland would need to pick up another good result against Germany, or go to Warsaw and need to win. I think as long as we win in Dublin and avoid defeat in Tbilisi, 3rd place will be our's.... just a case of will Germany get out of first gear, or will Poland start to fall for our chance of getting 2nd place.

McToot Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 A draw. Don't want the Poles getting to many points on the board and if we could follow that draw in June with a draw or better the Irish will be toiling. Looking at the remaining fixtures, I suspect it'll come down to us v Poland in October for 2nd spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian Craig Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I think a draw is probably the best result as it leaves options open for us to finish higher than third. A Poland win would be second most preferential result as it would really be a dagger blow to Ireland's hopes and leaves us in a good position to claim third (at worst). A win for Ireland is the least helpful result to us. It would really be a big boost to Ireland and give them real momentum for their match against us in Dublin although it wouldn't be all bad as it would perhaps bring Poland right back within our reach.

Swings and roundabouts mate. Maloney tucks that chance away and we deservedly go 3-1 ahead. As it was we both had spells in the game and a draw was fair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASTA Mick Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) I'm not too bothered but I think a draw would be the best result. A Poland win would make a top 2 finish trickier but would give us a great chance of being 3rd. An Ireland win makes it easier to finish in the top 2 but also keeps 4th as a possibility. The reality is, we need to beat Gibraltar twice, Georgia & Ireland away and get a result in one of the games against Poland or Germany and we should be top 2 without worrying about results elsewhere.

Caledonian Craig Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 At the moment I would say the most realistic position for us to finish in would be 3rd. I have run through possible/likely results scenario of games we, Poland and Ireland have left. First of all Ireland:- I can see both of their matches V Poland ending in draws, the match against us being a draw, them winning against Georgia and Gibraltar and drawing at home to Germany. Poland:- As I said I see both games V Ireland ending in draws, I see them beating Gibraltsr and Georgia, losing at Hampden against us and drawing against Germany. As for us:- Two wins against Gibraltar, s draw in Dublin, a win at home to Poland, a draw in Georgia and a loss at home to Germany. Those sets of results (I am presuming Germany will win the group - a bit prematue I know) would see the table finish like this:- 1st Germany 2nd Poland 19 points 3rd Scotland 18 points 4th Ireland 17 points All speculation I know but certainly a plausible set of results.

Caledonian Craig Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 No way to predict the group, every team is capable of taking points. There are no 'likely' results Well even if you do not wish to predict results I would still say that 18 points will get us at least 3rd. I do not think it is mathematically possible to have more than three teams finish with more than 18 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
