To be fair to Dunphy he nails his colours to the mast, before later backtracking shamelessly.

He doesn't backtrack shamelessly, he just says it like he has genuinely forgot, or like he never said it at all.

Interesting that Cunningham and Ryan Manning, who played on opposing teams in last weekend's game between Preston and QPR, were next-door neighbours growing up and used to have back-garden kickabouts together: https://twitter.com/Cunningham_17/st...rc=twsrc%5Etfw

Yeah, he was talking about that in the interview saying how he loved playing against Manning.

Dave Seddon, who covers Preston North End on behalf of the Lancashire Evening Post, spoke to Balls.ie on the surprise of Preston fans at the exclusion of Greg Cunningham from the latest international squad, especially in light of Robbie Brady's absence through suspension: https://www.balls.ie/football/greg-cunningham-361132

No one knew a great deal about him, he hadn't played a great deal for Bristol.

But I was doing the stats today, at Preston he has made something like 78 starts, and has never been on the bench; he's been Mr. Consistent. He was our Player of the Year last year, and he is in the running again this year.

While I wouldn't expect him to go into the Ireland squad as first choice, we thought that he would get a chance to be around the squad and show what he can do. Roy Keane has been to Deepdale to watch him and the other Irish lads, as has Steve Guppy. So we're just a bit surprised.

Gavin Cooney of Balls.ie suggests that Cunningham may have missed out due to being selected on the right of defence for Preston and playing poorly during a game that happened to be watched by Martin O'Neill:

He struggled somewhat, however, and reverted to left-back for the second half. Martin O'Neill was in the crowd that day, which perhaps explains why Cunningham will spend the forthcoming break at Preston's training ground.

Feared the worst when I saw he was taken off early today: https://twitter.com/pnefc/status/854005455504408577

The gaffer has confirmed that Greg Cunningham has fractured his leg and will miss the rest of the season. More to follow.

Some constitution to play on with an injury like that..

Preston hoping to have him back for pre-season.

It's not that impressive to be fair. Your fibula has very little weight-bearing requirements . It wouldn't b that uncommon for lads to play on a good bit. Hopefully he gets chance with us in the world cup warm up friendlies in November

Cunningham's recovered from the fracture and is back in training ahead of the new season, interview on Preston's site here: https://www.pnefc.net/news/2017/july...-for-the-club/

I was about to say that was a very quick recovery and then I remembered Liamoo saying he should have carried on until full time.

Yeah I was a bit harsh in retrospect. Karma got me a few weeks ago so Im suitably chastened!

If Cardiff swoops in for Cunningham the benefit for us could be that Kevin O'Connor will have a better chance at getting on the field for Preston at left fullback.

Yes hopefully he goes very difficult to see o Connor getting any games otherwise

If Cunningham leaves, Preston will bring in another LB.

They don't opt for O'Connor to replace him either. He's on the bench today.

Only starter is Maguire who is down for an assist for the opening goal of the match. Aboy Seani.

What's the story with horgan? Hasn't started any league games and not on bench today. Was he injured in preseason ?

He's been on the bench for all the other games this season.
Simon Grayson leaving might not help the LOI contingent there, even though it's good to see Maguire start today.

PNE fans on their forum seem to have been happy with Maguire today. "Excellent" was on poster's conclusion and there are a few more positive comments.

Apparently the stand-in for Cunningham did well too so that's O'Connor gathering splinters for a while. That said, the Championship has such a hectic schedule that he will get his chance.

Was Cunningham's stand-in the young lad Josh Earl? I haven't seen the game so I don't know who started LB.

That would be ideal for Cunningham and perhaps Kevin O'Connor too.

Some sources saying the fee will be �4m.

Delighted to see him get to the Premier League. Hopefully this will allow him to mount a serious challenge to Stephen Ward.

We very well potentially could have 5 full-backs starting in the Premier League come August; Coleman, Christie and Doherty on the right and Cunningham and Ward on the left.
