Thats good news, glad he got the nod. Was afraid Trap would just go for McShane. Even if Duffy doesnt play, the experience of being around the squad etc will do him good.

So that's both Lawrence and McShane definitely out of Trap's reckoning.
it would seem so, can't see any way back for mcshane in particular.Quote:

Coleman and McGeady will be fit to play against the Czechs: http://www.herald.ie/sport/soccer/ir...h-3021308.html
Probably rules out any hope McClean might have had of replacing one of them.
Is that a 'every silver lining has a cloud' type post?
Ha, I wouldn't have minded seeing McClean getting a nod, but if McGeady and Coleman are fit, no worries; all's good. Nearly. :p

Hopefully people will pick up knocks so Coleman & McClean get their chances.
And only heard of about 4 of that Czech squad...

theres a few good players in the czech league alright, apparently pilar kept his team up last year:cool:
Darron Gibson out for 4 weeks with knee injury according to Twitter.
Liam Brady on RTE last night said he thought McClean was a certainty to make the Euros squad. He said he hasnt been talking to Gio but interesting view all the same.
any official word on this? nothing from everton or the fai, and the only article I can find about is on 98fm.comQuote:

Seems to be complete rubbish. Nothing on Evertons website...where they have a section just for injuries.
It's true.
This guy's past his bestQuote:
