    Browning back with Sweden? He changed his tune: http://www.the42.ie/lukas-browning-l...04417-Oct2015/

    The Pundit Arena piece states the following in relation to Browning:

Capable of playing across the midfield but particularly comfortable on the left wing, the 18-year-old most recently represented his mother’s birth country Sweden having played for Ireland at under-17 level in March 2016.

If he did and his appearances for Sweden at under-age level have also been competitive, that means he is now tied to Sweden for good. Do we know if this is the case? Perhaps it's not the case as he has only since played for Sweden at under-18 level, as far as I know, and FIFA do not presenty host competitive fixtures in this age category.

    A random enough query but I just started a new game of FM2017 with the newest update and in the first Ireland squad of the season Sean Morrison gets a call up, is he actually even eligible?!

    I think we established a few yrs back that he wasn't eligible which at the time seemed a bit of a loss.time heals

    Watch this space - Michael Johnston from Celtic, 18yrs old & made his 1st team debut @ the weekend and already been scouted by Chelsea. Being described as the new Aidan McGeady for more multiple reasons!

    Born in Glasgow. How do we know he's eligible? Irish parentage or grandparentage somewhere, I'm guessing?

    Here's his Twitter feed, for anyone interested: https://twitter.com/mikeyjohnston10

    That was terribly teasing by Wangball. I'm going to have to assume he has some inside info. Especially with the McGeady reference.

    Come on Wangball. Give us more please.

    Johnston played (and scored, and got sent off) for Scotland U19s in the UEFA U19 Elite Round Qualifiers in March: http://www.uefa.com/under19/season=2...ups/index.html
    All goals, yellow and red cards tweeted in real time on mastodon, BlueSky and facebook

    Might Wangball have seen the tricolour in his twitter account and made an incorrect connection with Ireland? Hopefully though he has inside info like Ole mentioned.

    A poster is referencing a tweet from a Scottish-born Irish journalist over on YBIG. I can't find said tweet anywhere though.

    I see the poster who started the YBIG thread on Johnston claims the player was "snubbed by the SFA" and has "links to Gweedore". He also says that the FAI are "supposedly" on the case. No evidence is provided for any of his assertions, although, as you say, he does claim journalist Phil Mac Giolla Bháin tweeted this information. I'm gonna have a look myself.

    I can'y find this supposed tweet by Mac Giolla Bháin either. I've had a look for recent mentions of Gweedore on Twitter too, but nothing of relevance in sight.
