Northern Ireland failed to qualify as, although they avoided any serious slip-ups against the group's minnows, they were unable to record a win against any of the big boys. The campaign ended with an electric match against the Republic of Ireland at Windsor Park and the retirement of Billy Bingham after fourteen years as manager.
