Great idea for a cheap stocking-filler for any undiscerning footie fans you know: Golden Discs are now offering the DVD on Sunderland's Championship-winning season for a fiver (down from 19.99 which, funnily enough, is the current market value of Greg Halford, Roy's astute 3mil acquisition from Reading reserves).

Might you, a few home wins and it will be back up over a tenner again. Such is life.

in all fairness,there is a fair load of bul-****e being posted on this thread. I support ireland, and man united. i like to watch Celtic, and now Reading and Sunderland because of the Irish interests. Guess that makes me 'not a true fan". I'll work on narrowing it down to one team over the coming weeks.....jaysus sake....

Drogheda United have a few Irish lads playing for them too. I think you should consider adding them to your list.

Any of them full Irish internationals competing against full internationals of other countries?

But I guess Billy Bunter already anticipated your response.

No. Why? Who mentioned "Full Irish Internationals"?? In his last comment he said "The Irish Interests" which I assumes means a higher-then-most proportion of Irish Players or managers (hey, maybe he supports teams based on nationalities of board members for all I know!!). Newcastle also have some Irish players playing that are "Full Internationals" but he didnt mention them.
Anyway I still reckon he should consider Drogheda (sorry gustavo!!) because next season they will be representing IRELAND in european club footballs most prestigious competition. Something all the aforementioned clubs can never do (well, unless they apply to join the LOI that is) and you cannot get more irish then that..which seems to be what he's looking for.

So that limits him to Cork and Bohs.
