Excellent news. He must be challenging for a place in our back three ahead of Rory McArdle or Ryan McGivern.Quote:

Yes, this is only the third time you've told this 'story' in a public domain...
:rolleyes:
Originally you told me, you happened to just spot him.
Could one be 100 per cent certain they weren't just looking at the beacon light atop the air traffic control tower?

This fell off the main page. For shame.
Wanted to post about Paddy McCourt who scored another wonder goal today (by all accounts, haven't seen it). From my perspective, of all the players born in the north who might have wanted to play for us, he is the one that got away. Glorious talent.
And totally inconsistent.
Stu, McCourt's goal is on the score.ie.
Worth basking in.

Interview with Shane O'Neill of USA u-20 team, born in Cork in the Star today. A decent read. Himself and his brother Darragh both harbour hopes of playing for Ireland, but Shane may yet get a call up to the USA team for the World Cup.
Any more info on his brother Darragh? He seems to be better known for his American football ability if this is him?: http://www.buffzone.com/cu-news/ci_2...ll-aiming-high

Is it still a thing in American Football where High schools and colleges headhunt Europeans for kicking duties?
Are there many Europeans, who wouldn't have moved to the US during infancy or childhood, playing in the NFL? Didn't British sprinter Dwayne Chambers play NFL at one point? Was Darragh O'Neill born in Ireland like his brother? He may well have been, but it certainly seems he was raised in the US from an early age.
Chambers played in NFL Europe, as well as trying out rugby league. He had a lot of time on his hands.
The pass back to him is class
Which pass back and to whom?Quote:

Klinsmann hands out caps like they're chocolate, so it could be a real possibility. Hopefully MON or Roy pick up the phone...Quote:
