It'd have helped if anyone in the Irish midfield actually showed for a pass. They never did once in the first half.Quote:

"Black Cats boss Roy Keane knows all about Harte from their days together with Republic of Ireland and he could see his experience as vital to his squad next season."
Then again, Roy might not see Ian's experience as vital.
The only words that resonate in that article are "Roy Keane knows all"
I think Harte can definitely do a job for Sunderland cos he's still a very skillful player, no matter what people here say, and maybe Keane can work on his defending.Quote:

His standard of set-pieces are vital for clubs in mid-table, where I think Sunderland will end up next season, as this is where many of their goals come from.
Best of luck to him I say. Hopefully he gets his career back on track and proves a few people here wrong!
If you actually read the article, all it says is that the Spanish club want to tear up his contract and let him go for free. The writer then suggests that Sunderland might be interested in him because Keane "knows all about Harte" and they'd like to strenghten their squad (which team doesn't :rolleyes:).Quote:

Agreed:)Quote:

Levante have just announced the signing of a left back from Sevilla, David Castedo. Apparently, when it was announced Harte walked out of training and hasn't been seen since.
well maybe harte was taken so it was altered??...Quote:

how many posts do you have to reach before you get the delete thread function on your screen?
My top contenders:
1. Any thread regarding Ian Harte
2. Any thread asking why isn't David Connolly in the Irish team/ captain/playing for AC Milan
Is the title of this thread a joke? Surely it should read John O'Shea.
You have to sleep with Dahamsta.Quote:

Boro look for Harte
June 19, 2007
Republic of Ireland international Ian Harte could well be about to end his nightmare time in Spain as Middlesbrough have made a bid to bring the Levante defender back to the Premiership.
Harte has suffered an indifferent time since joining the La Liga side in 2004 and a run of bad injuries was followed by a loss of form, which saw the 30-year-old lose his place in the side.
However, Boro’ manager Gareth Southgate is keen to bring the experienced defender to the Riverside as he looks to bolster his defence ahead of the new campaign.
The Premiership outfit have tried a number of players at left back last season and Southgate feels that it is an area that they must shore up and see Harte as the best solution.
He really is punching above his weight if he gets into the premiership.Quote:

can we please, please close this thread? or at least rename it. its cringeworthy every time it gets bumped in the new posts!
I agree...this thread really shouldn't be at the top of the board....Quote:

of course you could argue with possibly a billion potential left backs in the world that ian harte is one of the best ?
Apparently, the fans used to called him ""El Torre Irlandes!" (The Irish Bull).
http://www.blather.net/globaleyes/ar...gend_of_i.html
Perhaps El Torresh*t Irlandes might be moe appropriate or this that a bit Harteless? No sign of a host of English clubs coming in for this "best left back in the world".
"I love you Harte!"
Proper!Quote:

Can't defend but he is one of the best free kick takers in the world
He's after parting comapany with Levante, where will he go next, SunIreland maybe?
