If it's any consolation Paddy, I have no doubt SkStu will be pursued through the bowels of Hades by an aroused, hermaphroditic Maggie Thatcher whilst a horde of Galatasaray fans chant in graphic detail about his imminent violation.
Although I should make it clear that all of that has nothing to do with his insensitive posting habits and everything to do with Satan being a Shamrock Rovers supporter.
that sounds hot!Quote:

Indeed - no worries - off to bed with my cocoa. The levinson enquiry is fresh in my mind and the quite appalling treatment the parents suffered at the hands of the press. The story about the mothers diary is quite unbelievable and that does plunge the depths of hell.
Strangely enough an article in the paper tonight - the English police visiting Barcelona as part of a review of the case. I've a four year old girl and I hope they resolve it.
btw Chris McCann more than warrants a run out.
McCann's progress is interesting in relation to young Meyler. It's taken McCann a year since his return from injury to regain the form and momentum he had before it.
McCann is a lovely little player. It was very unfortunate for him that he got his injury when he did, but even more so for Burnley, as he was pivotal to them. Still though, they were always going to be fubar'd giving the job to Brian Laws when they did. Not even McCann was going to save them.
I've not seen much of him.. Has he got something to offer Traps type of formation?? I personally keep harking back to Meyler as the fringe player with potentially most to offer Trapps first 11. But he can't string a run together.
I'd wonder why Coyle hasn't gone back for McCann though, when he did for Eagles and Mears? Has there been any gossip about a January move for McCann to any clubs??
I wouldn't be surprised if McCann does go in January to the Premiership. He is only now recovering his form after two bad injuries. I think he felt a sense of loyalty to Burnley who looked after him well, when he was injured, hence him signing a new contract. However if someone comes in with the right offer, Burnley will take the money. Its unlikely he will make the Euros but he is still only 23 and has a big future ahead of him.
He's 24
They had Holden and Muamba at the time, and it remained to be seen whether Chris was going to be back to his normal self so that probably had something to do with it. Also, there must be nothing worse for a fan to see a manager raid an old club for new players, but even more so when that club was relegated - if results had not gone well (they haven't as it turned out) it's an immediate rod for the managers back - not to mention a waste of valuable funds. Coyle probably was confident of getting a couple of decent loan deals too.Quote:

If Taarbt goes from QPR in Jan, I'd like to think Warnock will be looking.Quote:

Perception is that it was more a psychological thing that anything else
However, he does show signs of improving recently, hopefully it will continue
but it is highly unlikely at this late stage he will force himself into the squad
This may be one reason why Coyle has not come back in for him yet
Who knows maybe he will try and take him in Jan
McCann seeking reprieve

"I look forward to hopefully get back playing well and force my way into the Republic of Ireland manager’s plans. It’s got to be an aim of mine, me pushing on. I want to play in the international side."
Don't know where the got the Plymouth product from. Reckon this lad will end up in the Premiership soon enough. Seems to be back to his best now and is the driving force behind Burnley who are the form team in the Championship at the moment.
Wonder if Cahill's move to Chelsea will allow Coyle to sign him?
According to the Daily Mail Swansea are set to make a bid of 2 million for McCann
great stuff if true
Sportinglife refer to it in their paper talk section.Quote:

Would be a great move if he could hold down a starting place.
He would be another serious option for CMF and I think he has the potential to be better than Whelan if he gets an injury free run.
Totally agree with you. Fingers crossed. That injury set him back a couple of seasons but he is now back on track.Quote:

Linked with Norwich in this morning's papers. Would be a fantastic move for him if it goes through.
Would be alright, and would be great for us too. We really need to start getting more opportunities, real alternatives in midfield.
Remember this is the lad who was threatened by Don Givens that he would never play for Ireland. And Givens still has the ear of Trap.
New contract at Burnley.

Cheeky assist from McCann to help grab the winner for Burnley.
Just scored the winner for Burnley in the sixth minute of injury time in a 4-3 thriller at Bristol City.
Scores Burnleys second from close range to go 2-1 ahead against Bristol City. Seems to like scoring against Bristol City...
Will be interesting to see if he can secure a Premiership contract.

He's dead right to be fair. He's at a stage in his career where he needs to be pushing towards a higher level.
Hull and Palace supposedly showing interest! Good news.

If true does that mean bad news for one Irish person either way?
Newest rumour about McCann, he would be a good replacement for McCarthy, particularly as he would arrive on a free.

Move to Wigan confirmed.
