It’s a country with what? A 10th of the population of the UK and other major European countries? And in which football is the 3rd most popular sport.
They have as much chance - namely none unless we allow 48 teams in the next World Cup
To be fair, England have as much chance of winning a major tournament as San Marino.

To be fairer, we have a better chance as you have to qualify to be in with a chance. Something San Marino and ROI wouldn’t know about.
So is Denmark who have won a competition
Well England made the semis at the last World Cup. Any team that Barry Quinn can play in isn’t really going to dominate the world stage
In that case no England manager is ever going to last for long.
Who are these world class Irish players you were on about?
The likes to Roy Keane, Robbie Keane, Dennis Irwin, Damien Duff, Shay Given etc all played at the very top of the game

So did Willie Boland
So did Paul McGrath, Liam Brady, Frank Stapleton & Mark Lawrenson.So did Willie Boland
Just read James is seriously thinking of switching to play for Ireland. Would this have any affect on whether we would get monies for international appearances?

Bench warmerClearly has no real aspirations if true.

If we're talking about true world class players, the England squad is very much lacking in that regard.Top of the game maybe, and even being biased with Robbie, I’d say Roy Keane only was world class.
Yeah, it doesn't reflect well on him whatsoever and just stinks of arrogance.Poor form from Maddison to blackmail Southgate.
Typical petulant behaviour from him. Great player, but a right horrible little c**t.
Robbie Keane, Phil Babb and Gary Breen to name 3
c**t has been censored for a while.
Ireland presumably would like to retaliate for Damien Rice’s switch to England. Maddison was in the England squad this time last year but was not given a space on the sub’s bench and has not featured in a senior squad since. Sancho, Rice, and even Ward-Prowse have leapt ahead of him in Southgate’s view while Henderson, Dier and Lingaard are still features of the England midfield.
Whether Maddison upset someone or just failed to impress when he had a chance I don’t know but I can’t see him making the England breakthrough tbh and I suspect neither can he or his advisors

Surely, at least.......Owen, beckham, shearer, Ferdinand, a Cole, Rooney,

Roy Keane & Liam Brady the only two you could say were world class for Ireland.The original point had nothing to do with comparing whether Ireland or England had more world class players.
