    Just because of the annoying way he keeps dragging the issue out - this was basically the big window of opportunity where he could commit to contributing to the Irish team for a few years and a couple of campaigns and he chose to not take it but, more annoyingly, he won't just do the honourable thing and retire from international football once and for all. So essentially closing his thread would be a protest.

    Don't read it then. Even if he decides to retire from international football, people can still talk about him if they want. The Shay Given thread is still used, the Damien Duff thread, etc.

    Well fine then - you stay and continue getting dragged into the madness that is the Stephen Ireland "will he won't he?" soap opera - I'm going to storm off in a huff to the Jack Grealish thread

    Even the John Aldridge thread saw a little action recently.

    Ireland vows to grow beard until he scores 5 goals.

    This is what he would look like if he extended that vow to include the day he makes his belated International return.

    Ireland also revealed how he was being paid just £85 a week during his spell at Manchester City.

    Don't believe that!!

    It was 85 quid too much considering he could still afford this:

    Scored two for Stoke today after coming on as a sub. Keeper made a mess of both of them really, but both goals from near enough the edge of the box.

    And he had steak and chips for lunch. Both are about as equally relevant to the Irish Forum.
    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.

    About as relevant as the thread on Jamie O'Hara, Kevin Nolan, and every other "is this guy eligible" thread in existence on foot.ie. The difference is, however, Stephen Ireland is, in fact, Irish and has a handful of caps for Ireland.

    As pointed out by Charlie above though, if you don't like it, you can choose to ignore it.

    But but what if you don't like it and can't ignore it??
