No I know.

I can't think of any true "southern" irish guys anyway.

Clarke is about the only one from over here I can think of at all.

Not that I think there is any conspiracy in that. Players from over here would usually have went to Arsenal i they were in London.

Damian Duff would be true southern.

Andy Townsend and Terry Phelan also...

(I think)

There not real irish though.

??

I can't remember Colin Clarke ever playing for Chelsea. I think he had a spell with QPR at a time.

Who can forget the United fans singing "f**k The Pope" a few years ago when they were playing Celtic in a Champions League game.

Shameful.

Clarke didn't play for Chelsea but another Newry legend, the Dromalane Bomber, Joe Larkin was on their books in the 70's I believe. Never made it but he was there.

I know his Brummie cousins, their parents are indeed from Mayo.

Often said that myself. Never knew there were so many born and bred English on this forum.

Gone someone in and give bigfella a shake from his stubber. He's missing all day.

I'd do it but it might be classed as a sectarian attack. You know what us prods are like hi.
