thats just stupid. i belive steven gerrard could have played for ireland too as well as half the current english squad.

Lax rules by the games governing body does not make someone Irish

I saw he kicked that ball forward too. Maybe he thought he was facing his own goal & going for back pass?

So unfortunate he is retired.... ;)

Is he a decent prospect then? For what it's worth, I think S Gerrard is one of the finest midfielders around. That goal against Olympiakos was sensational.

I think Gerrard is a class act too and his goal was brilliantly taken. However I took issue with some of the press reports on Thursday applauding his leadership. One paper said it was up there with Roy Keane's leadership in Turin.

Didn't they notice a dangerous tackle and a deliberate kick at an apponent that could each have earned him a straight red? In fact in an international tournament I reckon he'd have been in trouble.

Doesn't Ireland have a cousin of Gerrard's in the underage set-up? Is it the guy mentioned above? Is Darren Potter related to him?

His cousin Anthony Gerrard has thrown his hat in with us and is on the books at Everton as far as i know.
