Roy Keane has said that he is looking forward to a "hostile atmosphere" when the Republic of Ireland face Georgia in their opening Euro 2016 qualifier at the weekend.
Martin O'Neill's side will take on Georgia in Tbilisi on Sunday, where the home fans provide a famously hostile reception to visiting teams.
The Republic's assistant manager told BBC Sport: "Everyone seems frightened to death, particularly the media. There's a lot of negativity. Strangely enough I'm sure if we qualify, you will be first to celebrate and have a jolly-up over there.
"We have got to look forward to the game. People are on about a hostile atmosphere, brilliant, bring it on."
The Irish side beat Oman 2-0 in a friendly last night.
