EURO 2012: WITH TWO games of this campaign remaining the Republic of Ireland are currently on course to be third seeds again when the draw for the Euro 2012 qualifying campaign is made in Warsaw on February 7th.
With six groups of six and three of five to be drawn next time around, only top placed sides will be guaranteed qualification with the best runner-up and four play-off winners then joining them at the 16 team finals tournament in Poland and Ukraine.
England are virtually guaranteed a top seeding as things stand while Scotland and Northern Ireland would join the Republic in Pot Three with Wales starting off once more as fourth seeds.
