Luck of the Irish (2 Viewers)

[Skyblue_LDN]

It's been a while since we have had a few Irish lads in the first team squad and it was about time that we did. Same can actually be said for Welsh players. I had to laugh at the interview with one of the players, the reporter asked if he was looking forward to following in the footsteps of many famous Irish players at the club like Keane, Doyla and Breen, really Doyle? We have had some good players and I particularly liked Gerry Daly.

Two Irish players that I thought would be good for us were Donal Murphy who scored 10 goals in 43 games for us in the 70's,always surprised me that he didn't get as many games as i thought he should,was outstanding in the reserve side.
Tony Sheridan was an outstanding young talent in the early 90's but sadly he was a pisshead.

Tony Sheridan!! That’s the fucker!!

Spent ages earlier trying to remember his name.

Setters was neither a right back or Irish

Since when has being Irish been a condition of playing for the national team

If you made an all time best XI of a single nationality, past, present and at their peak, then the Scots representation would be the best by some distance.

True, but he still didn't play for them. Just slot in Cyrus Christie or Barry Quinn instead.

Thinking of it now, have I missed anyone mentioning Richard Keogh?
