James McClean M Wrexham b.1989

[Charlie Darwin]

A decent striker would have struck home at least one of McClean's many inviting crosses.

I wonder would O'Neill be considering a short term loanee from the MLS?

How is Darren O'Dea going to help?

I see he is getting booed by some of the crowd at the home game today against Chelsea. I suppose since he is not Jewish or Black it is OK, would not expect the Irish media to highlight this. After the job done on Aonthony Stokes last week and the booing of Coleman recently I think it is worrying.

Probably the presence of Chelsea fans multiplied the booing tenfold.
But I thought they had undergone a sudden transformation and become sensitive to ethnic slurs and such, so any booing (in all probability) was just normal football related booing.

How is Darren O'Dea going to help?

I ask myself that same question everytime I see him confirmed in the national team starting 11.

According to MOTD, he set up their two best chances other than their goal...

Was even praised by Hansen. Worrying?

And the latest WSC piece about you-know what, c/o. our very Rotund 'friend' in the West Mids.
Luckily RM's piece is more balanced...

The Londonderry Democratic Unionist Party MP, Gregory Campbell, alluded to this in a radio interview in which he mentioned a series of other incidents, and said that McClean had abused the freedom of choice he had been given by those who had lost their lives in the wars.

Did Campbell actually say that? What an absurd and nonsensical thing to say.

[ArdeeBhoy]

Be fair DI, GC's completely par for the course. And his 'constituency' of paranoid freaks...

Scores after 2 minutes against Reading

Goal McClean. Federici flaps at a corner, ball falls to the edge of the box, McClean, heading backward, strikes it on the turn in to the bottom corner at the near post.

Great finish from McClean to put Sunderland 1-0 up at home to Reading.

[DannyInvincible]

McClean playing very well so far. According to the commentators on Fox Soccer, Steve Guppy is mentoring McClean in training.

Dam I caught the game on about 4 minutes so I missed it.

Hopefully they show it now at half time.

He's just taking up where he left off at last Saturday's game,
anyone who knows anything about football should know that.

[tricky_colour]

Much needed result for MON, assuming they win, anyone see his recent interview were his belief was questioned by
the reporter?

He gave a great reply.

About 2:10 I bet the reporter wished he had not bothered asking.

The Fox sports coverage of the premeere is awesome.
