You're more stuckk than you think.....


Villa - Clarke (Correct spelling is Clark - a Londoner -has never figured at full level yet) Given Keane Ireland (Irish in namee only - complete tosser - goodbye) Dunne
Wolves - Doyle (Nice guy - as threatening as a daschund at a bulldog party) Hunt (All puff and no wind) Ward Foley Keogh (Keogh couldn't even cut it on loan to laughaloud Leeds)Everton - Coleman Duffy Gibson (Only Coleman could be rated)Fulham - Kelly Duff (Kelly suspect, Duff too cosy with his salary, edge gone)Norwich - Hoolahan Pilkington (Has Trapp ever heard of either - won't count)WBA - Long Cox Reid (Reid is the best and he's retired)Stoke - Walters Wilson Whelan Delap (Only Whelan feels the need)Sunderland - Meyler McClean Westwood OShea (McClean looks the biz, the rest are journeymen)
Wigan - McCarthy
Sammon (On both counts, you are having a laugh)Newcastle - Best (Far from it!!)QPR - Kenny (Badly treated by FAI after one bad game, a super goalkeeper, if he was been in Rialto instead of Rochdael he would be a super-hero)
[/i]
Fierce tame altogether

And apart from adding something constructive to this bit of trivia, what is it that you have to offer? Oh yes, i spelt Clark incorrectly!.. Thank you.. (I particularly like the "Best - far from it!".. Great play on his name :))

Class. No doubt we'll get a big dirty 3 logo across it....wish you could buy them without the sponsor.

Looks like a cheap Dunnes Stores t shirt IMO.

Orangemac

Only friendly before squad named is in a few weeks.

Would be good to see Duffy,Meyler,McCLean,Pilkington and Hoolahan given a run out. Maybe a B game will be organised before th summer.

These players deserve a chance to stake a claim especially when they are arguably better than McShane,Keogh,Lawrence who will all be going to Poland.

AFS

Keogh won't be going to the Euros, and the other two boys mentioned there probably won't either.

If you want to make a case for McClean, Pilkington or Hoolahan, then it has to be against Coleman and Stephen Hunt, because those are the boys that would have to make way. Duff and McGeady are certainties.

Likewise, Duffy would have to oust Darren O'Dea, who is the current number 3 CB. O'Shea's flexibility means there's no need a fourth specialist CB in the squad.

The shouts to include these new fellas are a lot less convincing without proper consideration for the men that actually have to make way.

ludermor

FFS Meyler has played just a game and a half this year in the league, it is a fair leap from that to getting a run in the national team! Duffy not much more. People really lose the run of them themselves when a lad starts a couple of games.

Applesisapples

I think it is clear that Trapp will stick by and large with the squad that got him there and look afresh come the next qualifying campaign.

Forever Green

McLean has been very impressive so far, I would have him in the squad for the Euro`s but Trap will stick with that same squad that got him there even though a lot of them aren`t playing regularly. Which is probably fair enough tbh, as they were the one`s who got us there and they should be given there chance on the big stage

Always an injury along the way so I would say if his form keeps us he must be in with a shout, Hunt has went backwards in the past 2yrs.
