fair play too ye lads ye must have been up all night
Marc Yeates, of Spurs, is doing very well on loan at Colchester over the last few games. Theyve been playing him on both left and right wings
West Ham have made a formal bid for Tottenham defender Stephen Kelly, but will have to increase their £1m offer for the 22 year old Irish u21 international. Both Celtic and Birmingham are tracking the Kelly situation and are ready to move for him, now that he has handed in a formal transfer request to Martin Jol.
The Hammers have released full-back Tomas Repka and have made an approach for the Spurs man as a replacement.
Tottenham are holding out for more money for the young defender and Spurs boss Jol admitted that "We have had some interest in Stephen in the last few days since his transfer request"

Alan O'Brien made his Premiership debut for Newcastle against Fulham at the weekend coming on as a sub after 80 mins.
from independent.co.uk's review of Ipswich VS Sheffield United
With an 18-year-old goalkeeper, Shane Supple, and the 17-year-old Owen Garvan in the centre of midfield there is clear promise, but Ipswich need to find more players who have both class and experience.
sheff weds v leicester 2-1
McCarthy and Maybury played for leicester, McCarthy was again captain and also picked up a booking, for wednesday, Coughlan was captain and Whelan played, both are reported as being very impressive, Corr came on with 20 to go and Partridge was an unused sub.

according to football manager jo keenan is second generation irish and is eligible for us, anyone know anything about him he has played for chelsea from the bench this season so could quite possibly go on to forge a good career for himself either there, or more likely elsewhere...comments...
Haven't heard anything about him
What about Alan O'Brien who had a nice showing for Newcastle against Fulham today. For some reason I think he is American :eek:
Answered my own question:
http://www.nufc.premiumtv.co.uk/page...~30604,00.html
He's Irish. Just 21 years of age and looked good today. Perhaps he is also one for the future?
If you are referring to Chelsea's Joe Keenan, he has already played for Ingurland and scored :DQuote:

The 22-year-old Derryman has lapsed out of contract with Notts County last summer but was re-employed by the Magpies on a short-term basis before an acrimonious departure from Meadow Lane.
Adam rooney, 17, (brother of dublin citys mark) is expected to make his debut for stoke tonight accoding to the star

Rooney came on in the 80th minute, he got a shot on goal which was blocked and fell to Gallagher who got Stoke's goal. I don't know if he took a peno but Stoke scored all 5.
Stack, Hunt, Long & Doyle all played for Reading last night in their 3-2 win over WBA, Doyle replacing Long after 90 mins.
I only saw about 30 mins of the Leeds game. Kav was his usual composed self, distributing the ball well and not afraid to receive the ball under pressure. Miller had some good moments. Didn't notice Douglas much but thought Kelly played well, and I hear he scored a great goal.
Anyone who saw the whole match got a comment on the Irish in this game?
Never heard if he scored a penalty, but I saw the goal and he did play a part in it. Has only played 2 reserve team matches for stoke and is only 17 so he must be highly thought of over there to get a run in teh first team so quicklyQuote:

arsenal fielded Stokes and Tracey (who i think is one of ours, possibly a limerick man), and a Kelly and Murphy in defence who im not sure where they rare from.Stokes scored twice, addind the 3rd and 4th goals, the latter coming deep into injury time.
heres the full report:http://www.lcfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page...69887,00.html? with quite a bit of Irish involvement
Yep, Shane Tracey is from Limerick, his older sister Yvonne plays for the Arsenal and Irish ladies team.Quote:

Plus comments from the manager, he thought Arsenal were lucky not to be 4-1 down at half time. There's a mention of Cregg leaving for Falkirk at the end:

Isn't Sean Kelly from Kerry?
I'll go back to the Irish in England sticky, I think it's all up there...
Kelly, Murphy, Stokes, Tracy are all Irish.
CraftyToePoke - Stokes only scored 1.
oh yeah........oops, sorry mis read it.Quote:

Always thought he didn't get a fair crack of the whip under McCarthy and Kerr, seen as a utility "Jack of all trades, master of none" type player so neither knew where to play him

Stephen Quinn has joined Rotherham on loan from Sheffield United. He was on loan to MK dons earlier in the season playing 16 times and also made 2 League Cup appearances for United.
Karl Bermingham and Garry Breen were substitutes in Man City's reserves 1-1 draw with Wolves last night. Unfortunately neither made an appearance as there was a large contingent of first team players in the team (Musampa, Croft, Bradley Wright-Phillips) plus a trialist from Norway, Haapala.
Wolves had Jordan Fitzpatrick on the bench, but I can't find any Irish links with him

However, McCarthy says there's no need to rush him back into the action as it could affect his long-term future.
"I'm not going to say Stephen won't play again this season," McCarthy told the Mirror.
"If he becomes pain-free in the next couple of weeks, he will be only a further couple of weeks getting fit because he's a naturally-fit young fella and we will see him back playing.
"But there's no point, for his long-term future, in trying to rush him back.
"As soon as he is fit, he will be busting a gut to play. Hopefully he isn't too far away.
"He has a problem with his spine and he had an injection that didn't work, but after three weeks that can be revisited.

Reading and Ireland u19 international Shane Long is hoping to be picked for a Football League under-21s side which is set to play similar opposition from Italy at Hull City's KC Stadium on Tuesday, February 21.
18 year old Long has featured in several of Reading's outings during the last six weeks and is delighted to have been given the chance to impress the manager and fans.
" I've got a few games under my belt now, I just hope to make the most of every chance I get."
"It's definitely a big boost, coming over here and not knowing where I'd be and I'm delighted really."
When questioned about his chances of continuing his run in the first team Long said
"We'll take it one step at a time, however if it comes, i'll jump at the chance"
Asked about the fact that Kevin Doyle was playing for reading and that they had both came over from Ireland together, he said
"Oh it's brilliant, it's someone to look up to, just to learn a few things from, he's brilliant at what he does and it's an aim for me to get to his standard."

Young Irishman, Adam Rooney was thrown into the mix during Stoke City's F.A cup 3rd round replay against Tamworth. Stoke city boss, Johan Boskamp sent on Adam Rooney, a red-headed, 17-year-old Irish attacker, and with his first touch in senior football, a header from Peter Kopteff's corner, he set up Gallagher to redeem himself with an overhead kick.
Boskamp said "I like him because he always goes for goal if he has the chance and doesn't let his head drop if he misses."
Rooney has been nominated for the FAI schools player of the year award and will be home for the awards at the citywest hotel in Dublin next Sunday night.

Hearts have offered Liverpool & Ireland u21 international, Darren Potter an astonishing £10,000 a week to become the joint highest-paid player in Tynecastle history.
Negotiations between the player's representatives and Hearts owner Vladimir Romanov took place in December, when a deal was put in place to take Potter and 18-year-old Francis Smith from Anfield to Edinburgh.
Potter's fractured vertebra, which is expected to sideline him until the end of January, has delayed completion of the transfer as Hearts are understood to be waiting to assess the injury when it is nearer to healing.
However, the player is said to be delighted with the terms offered to him, which are equal to the reported wage of Hearts' Lithuanian striker Edgaras Jankauskas, and is eager to get his career in Scotland underway.

Lets hope he gets the move. He's wasted at Liverpool starting about 1 game in central midfield.
