Duff, Robbie, Clinton, McGeady, Elliott & Reid all scoring. McShane getting his first goal. Even lads like Paul Heffernan got involved. John O'Shea also scored over Chrimbo. Pity about Richie Dunne though!

Paul McShane is a young lad from Wicklow who was capt. of the Man Utd U18s(?) and plays for their reserves too. He has just been loaned out to Walsall(?) and scored. He's a centre-back and there are high expectations of him at MUFC.

Just read that, thanks for posting it up. Sounds like one to watch out for. Good luck to him.
And your a bray fan, well by the looks of the jersey anyway... He is from greystones. Played against him as a young lad and he didn't set the world on fire but apparently he is very highly regarded at O.T. and looks set for a good future as does kevin o' conner at wolves..... ;)

Not from Greystones, he's from Kilpedder. Prior to moving to MU, played his football with Joey's.
