that drop goal by Rog... Forever will put a smile on my face.. Had Henson taken that penalty, we were screwed but his confidence was shattered having missed a penalty earlier. That commentry 'making, or not making' will forever be etched in my memory.. March 21st 2009 was the greatest day in Irish History
