I think they are playing home matches in Faro
I say if you don't your own foreign policy, you are not allowed into FIFA. Two many non countries, and tiny protectorates that are really wee satellites. Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland. If you can't be arsed to be independent, go play for uncle roy.
Also, Bye bye San Marino, Lichtenstein, Faroes, Andorra, Gibraltar - as well as Georgia, Moldova, Israel and the non European countries in UEFA. At best they should be playing pre qualifiers.
Yes, if we do that the goal of eternal Irish qualification will be achieved.

Come support Ireland for a spell. We will take ya while you are on sabbatical.
Moldova is very much in Europe, what with it being sandwiched in between Romania and Ukraine. Also Georgia is probably more European than Asian. Although where do we draw the line when separating Europe and Asia.
As for northern Ireland, the reason why we have two Irish teams and not one (like we do in lots of other sports) is that certain Dubliners weren't happy with the headquarters of the football association being in Belfast. Which it was before separation.
I'll watch the England game but I'll always support Ireland too.
Moldova are defo in Europe...
As for San Matino, Andorra, Lichtenstein etc - what's wrong with them?
As for non-European countries playing in UEFA competition - these are political issues.
Always said you were a decent man Red.
Great subs by Hodge - he puts on a visibly shagged out Sterling for the last half hour, even though he wasn't up to much more than walking about a bit, and then for the last ten minutes he brought on the confidence-sapped Lambert to wander about forlornly on the right wing.
It really is Beckham all over again. He now takes all the pens and free kicks, hogs the ball around the area and shoots from anywhere rather than pick out a teammate, and if, like a monkey at a typewriter, one of his countless mad jabs actually produces the right result, the media go crazy.
I take my quarter Irishness very seriously fella. When the next Dublin drinkies is on I'll be on the plane. I had a great time last time. Hopefully be able to buy you a bevvy if you're near Dublin. 🙂
I'm only an hour away, Couldn't make the last one . Hope I can make the next one.
.... and so the cycle begins again.
Desperately average performances masked by successful qualification, misplaced reliance declining star player (Rooney).... this will all be followed by hysterical tub thumping that England are "among the favourites"..... before being meekly dumped out of the tournament by unfancied opposition.

I think that's finally all changed in the last couple years. Everybody I come across is sick of England and expects nothing from them... and that's before Woy and Captain Rooney came along.
Serbia - Albania abandoned
Well done indeed. O'Shea on his 100th appearance
