Tony Springett F Norwich City b.2002

Spotted Tony Springett was on the bench for Norwich. Realistically, it would have been a lot more useful seeing him play for the u20 team than for example Kyle Robinson

When is the last time he was involved with us?

Not since 2019, he was named in an U18 squad - https://www.fai.ie/ireland/news/irel...den-tournament
Has both the tricolour and the union jack in his twitter profile, which is odd - https://twitter.com/springett_t

On today at half time for his senior debut, that's two Irish teenage players getting premier league game time with Norwich this season

Springett is not listed as Irish on the official Premier League stats page incidentally, he has been added to the stats as an English player today.

There's a few like that
Liam Daish is listed as Scottish: https://www.premierleague.com/player...Daish/overview

He was sprung from the bench I see?

Hope springs eternal that he'll declare for us.

“At a lot of times in my career it’s ‘when are you’re going to play for England?’. But my mum has always told me, ‘just remember you are Irish’. My parents always bought me the latest Irish football tops.

Now there is a good example of the ideal world dual player interview.

Great parenting too.

Getting a rare run out for Norwich in the Championship today. Playing out of position at left back and it sounds like it's not going well.

Update - taken off after 54 minutes.
