Shay Given calls Trapattoni and says he is ready to return for Ireland

The Irish national squad is in "deep sewage". The quals in March feature Austria at home (3-22) and at Sweden (3-26). They have played three matches of ten. That will give them the halfway mark. No way, they win at Sweden. They will most likely tie Austria at home. They need to start evaluating for down the road. 2014 is lost. The never say die loss to France in 2009 is now a distant memory. Changes need to be made now. Trap should be sacked. Given is a gallant distant memory. Time marches on. Robbie Boy is leading "Custer's Last Stand".
