I didn't say the whole of Merrion Square would be going but you can be sure (speculation or not) that there will be at least a few senior officials going (just to make sure everything's ok like;) ). It's hardly going to be Stan, Bobby and the physio.Quote:

Sorry there Drinkfeckarse. I never suggested that you said that the whole of Merrion Square was going so thats you introducing that nice bit of hyperbole there.Quote:

I dont work for the FAI or am I John Delaney but why would you suggest that cause I dont hop on the band wagon which on ever thread you must slag the FAI without foundation. Just to put on record I think the FAI have and probably are a shamble of an organistation that is capable of both good and bad decisions. However I am not going to slag them without foundation on ever thread just cause its the trendy or easy thing to do.
Also Klein if pedantic means only wanting to deal with factual information rather than commenting on pure speculation or making up stuff them maybe I am pedantic. I often find that people who accuse others of being pedantic do so cause they have very little left to debate with and drop to the depths of name calling.

What has a Harry Ramsdens in Spain go to do with this debate, Klein. What has Paul Le Guen got to do with Ireland heading to Portugal for a training camp.
:confused: Jesus H, you need to chill out Neil and take life a little less seriously...Quote:

nothing wrong with it but given the fact we arent in world cup there is not much else to talk about.Quote:

Surely these last few posts have nothing to do with the this thread and are just personal attacks against me.
I just wanted to use a picture for the first time....
Its 5 o clock on a friday and everyone is just bored...just chill....
If you are bored go mess with your mates or shag your gf or do something worthwhile rather than **** stirring or trolling on an internet forum.
Mine was. Can't speak for the rest. But if you're going to say "I am totally chilled" you deserve it. I'd do the same to anyone else on this board...Quote:

No one commented on your personality. No back to the arguement at hand...

Would people just relax a small bit, it was only a throw-a-way comment. All meant in good form but taken totally way out of hand:rolleyes:Quote:

I didn't understand your rant after it which leads me to my next question....
Are you Siempre Red in disguise?:p ;)
I hear that Stephen Ireland won't be joining up with this training camp, injured, out for the rest of the season.
Yeah, that's right. Picked up a calf injury in training recently - http://www.mcfc.co.uk/default.sps?pa...=4&toyear=2006Quote:

Somebody said it on another thread this morning, but Colin Healy may well be worth bringing along.

I notice England have their training camp in Portugal too. They also brought uncapped kid into their squad.Quote:

Jay Tabb and Kevin Foley have been called up to the squad after their U21 game. I assume it was Givens' decision to call them up (just like it was McCaffrey's decision on Dixon) as Tabb only played 15 minutes of the 2 Azerbaijan games because he was playing in the English playoffs.
Why isn't Graham Stack in the squad? He's still at Milwall and might be a good keeper for the future.
I thought he was sub keeper at Reading!!Quote:

[QUOTE=pete]is the weather so bad in Ireland in May that have to go abroad for training? QUOTE]
I'm quite impressed Staunton forsaw the awful weather we are having this weekend (3 eircom League matches all postponed because of the weather) and took the squad to Portugal. Hopefully, he will have the same foresight over the German formation in Stuttgart in September.
Wayne Henderson played regularly and well during the season, Stack only played cup matches for Reading. In fairness, Hahnemann is a very good keeper at Reading, but Stan's obviously made his call on who the no. 3 keeper is & I've no reason to doubt him on this one. I'd gues that Alan Kelly has some input into this too.Quote:
