@TheIrishKieran Probably more likely to work the other way to be honest. An international for domestic players during the January transfer window will bring the scouts over from England in their droves. Would be a good opportunity for the players involved to showcase themselves all the same.
@TheIrishKieran From where Ireland are coming from avoiding relegation from what is a tougher NL group this time along with a third place or better finish in the WC qualification group would likely be enough progress to get a contract extension if he wants one.
@TheIrishKieran That quote is in relation to their surprise at him moving to another nation, not any surprise in relation to him leaving after the Copa.
@TheIrishKieran Yes I do. They have loads that never played lower league football at all. And yet despite this there are many in their current senior squad who have played at that level. So they must be doing something right in those leagues if they're going from that level to the senior team.
@Cathal_Dennehy Wonder what the plan will be - all out in one event and sacrifice the other, or split Adeleke and Mawdsley between the two and try to stay competitive in both? They can't lose from here really, unless there's an injury.
@swearimnotpaul I think entirely reasonable to deselect her after she outsourced the city's emergency services functions to a pack of dogs. Not to mention the whole chicken in the handbag situation.
@seidodge In football you would find that Dublin, Kerry and Mayo have very high numbers, the rest by and large very few. GAA Season Tickets include away games and are generally poor value for money unless your team has a shot of reaching the AI final. They're not comparable to soccer STs.
@Itwitius They're right, it is for the fans. Just not so much the ones that actually go to matches...
The reality of TV money in the game, for better or worse.
@flightradar24 Passengers flying Liverpool to Knock ended up further from Knock than they started today, after a go around at Knock they flew straight back over Liverpool and diverted to Stansted instead!
@reptracker Does that not mean he's stuck there for the season now? Can't play for a third club in a season and Stoke have loaned in a different keeper for the run in.
@reptracker Will be a great experience for Vata to get to play against the mighty *checks fixture list* Broomhill in this crucial mid table Scottish non league clash tonight.
