Are we now going to need them to be on the bench. The reason we have players like Harte and the like is if injuries occur at least we know we can put them in against someone like France and they will not be overawed and have more chance of doing the business rather than some kid playing for manu reserves every week !
So I take it no Apology to the fans, management, people of Ireland (cork & "it was all Mick's fault" camp excluded, ) was forthcoming then..................way 2 go Roy !!!
when's he gonna pick up the injury that leads to him being withdrawn from the squad :rolleyes:
And so what if he does? Stephen Carr has already withdrawn and you can be sure he won't be the only one. What matters is what these players do in the qualifiers.Quote:

I wouldn't read too much into that - Henry goes missing in the big big games and it wouldn't surprise me that O'Brien marked him out of the game.Quote:

Don't know about that. An extra 2 and 1/2 weeks with McCarthy would do anyone's head in.Quote:

Well said NeilMcD. The Irish team looks healthier now than it has in a long time with a lot of promising players coming through. Good start to qualifiers and future could be very bright indeed.
