    Congrats Peter Thompson

    Fourth NI goal against Georgia and the first time an Irish League player has scored for Northern Ireland in 14 years.

    I can only hope someone from our league can emulate that soon.

    doubt that will for a few years

    can't see Trapp making the long trip to Dalymount or United Park for a look at any eL players anytime soon

        BBC report says it was Thompson but list of results has down as an own goal.

          Just saw it on Match of the Day, didn't look like he knew much about it to be honest. I think he just barely made contact with it though so we'll let him have it.

            I didn't think it was his goal to be honest. Good win but Georgia were terrible!

              I know they said 14 years in commentary but it is actually 24. The last Irish league player to score was Lee Doherty against Israel in 1984.
