Time to reach for the cliche: "they'll all take points off each other". RoI in #Euro2016Draw

That's a tough group. But if anyone can eek out 3 draws, Ireland can. #roundof16herewecome #euro2016

As much as I want to get an excuse in early, Group D is the most deadly. Spain, Turkey, Czech Republic and Croatia is nasty. #Euro2016Draw

It is any solace if I quote the cliché "To be the best you have to beat the best" ?
No...maybe not..

By the time Euro 2016 comes around I'll have convinced myself that we can beat Sweden, Belgium and Italy.

I'm not saying we can't qualify by any means but there's absolutely no way I'll be persuaded that there's a tougher group than ours.
