What are we gonna do in 20 years from now when all these "grandads" become "great-grandads"?
I say start a programme of enforced mass emigration now in order to prepare.
A striker, interestingQuote:

Kinda the same as getting worked up about some 18 year old who hasn't really managed to break into the St Pats team yet. About the same standard really.
there was a write up about him in the herald last night, already played and scored for the St Johnstone first team.
Is the herald available online at all?

on a related sort of note, seen on the FAI page, a youngster from Den Bosch is lining out for the U-16's
