Ivan is fed up with people hoping and believing that the Republic of Ireland national football team is better than it actually is.

Following Tuesday night's comfortable 2-0 win for the Swiss in Geneva over Mick McCarthy's men, Ivan doesn't know what else we'd expect, seen as football is not the national sport, and we've been 'crap' for years.

Newstalk reporter Henry McKean headed out to find out how the fans feel about the team's chances of making Euro 2020, while Off The Ball regular and journalist Johnny Ward told Ivan why he still has hope for the future.
