Very well aware of tabloid newspapers, but I lived in hope Dunne would survive at Villa. Quite pessimistic about his future, however, the Indo outlines some possible destinations for him.Quote:

Trap says he won't start unless he is 100% fit, not sure what to make of that.Quote:

Also a bit about Stephen Quinn.
"Quinn has been nicknamed by fans as 'Quinniesta' due to Quinn's playing style that is similar to the Iniesta the Spain and Barcelona Star. Quinn's impressive first season with The Tigers was rewarded by an international call-up for Geovanni Trapottoni's Republic of Ireland squad on 27th May, 2013"
Not much about Quinn on this forum just one or two posts in his thread the rest off topic. (gonna dig it up).
That seems appropriate as he has been called up.
Dunne is to return to action for the Georgia game: http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/inter...eorgia-return/
Quote:
Republic of Ireland manager Giovanni Trapattoni has confirmed Richard Dunne will play some part in Sunday's friendly against Georgia.
The 33-year-old central defender has not made a single appearance for either his club Aston Villa or his country all season because of injury.
However, having trained with his international team-mates for the last few days, he is set to end his enforced exile at the Aviva Stadium.
Trapattoni said: "I have spoken with him and I have already said he will play some of the game on Sunday. Whether he will start or come on later, we have to decide, but it is possible for him to play."
I hope the dunneymonster gets a standing ovation if he comes on, or when he goes off.
I tried to start a chant of richie dunne a couple of times on Wednesday but i was on my own, probably cos most there don't know it, but I think for him it would have been nice and provided some much needed support. Hopefully it gets going on Sunday with the 10k plus supporters :)
this made me laugh Paul. Thanks! just the visual of you chanting on your own and the disappointment/embarrassment when no one joins in... :) ive been there...Quote:

Did she know?Quote:

I'd be more interested if you explained to me who Leon Heskey is.
Oh maybe it was Emile not sure where Leon came from lol., but if you google images you get the same player anyway.Quote:

Who wouldn't be impressed with the honey monster?
Derby want him too, so maybe he hasn't signed for QPR.
