Cregg and O donnell both score for falkirk yesterday.
For motherwell today foran started with trevor molloy, danny murphy and keegan all coming on in the 2nd half.
Dempsey was playin for Aberdeen also...think stan needs to travel north of the border soon , what do u guys think?
Few minutes SPL action & possible Ireland call ups suggested already. :eek: :D :rolleyes:Quote:

Danny Murphy played against Rangers today so he must get a call up now. First Doyler and now Danny become instant superstars, there must be something in the air on that island.
Noel Hunt has been playing, and scoring goals in Scotland for years and he's s**t. Richie Foran too, and he's pretty average. Stokes is an exception, as are the Celtic boys. Young players are always worth a look at, but the Motherwell crew? FFS :rolleyes: :p
Jesus im getting slatted here.
Relax guys i meant the celtic boys and the two young ex arsneal lads at falkirk.......maybe Dempsey aswell
Dempsey's rubbish.
Good luck to all of them though
Noel is far from **** pal. Has been very unlucky with injuries. SPL is only a superior league off the pitch. Little difference on the pitch. Hence the ex EL players getting a game.Quote:

I also mentioned elsewhere that I met a Falkirk fan when I was over in Scotland for Hogmanay, and he thinks Cregg is the bees' knees (more so even than Stokes). The view of one drunken fan to another but interesting nonetheless.Quote:

As for those Motherwell boys, I would be shocked if Molloy's name was even mentioned in the context of any Irish squad 'A' or 'B'. Murphy MIGHT be a potential B cap - nothing more.
A little bit off topic, but I seen the cover of the Sports supplement in the Indo this morning with the heading “Dubliner on Target for Celtic”. As a Dub this doesn't bother me, but I'm almost certain the guy is from Kerry. I think Gerry Garvan, Owens father and manager of Home Farm, used to fly young O’Dea up to play for Home Farm every weekend. Surprised the Indo making a mistake like that!!! That must have been some team Home Farm had that year. With Supple, Garvan and Synott (all Ipswitch), McCann (Burnley) and O’Dea (Celtic).

Born in Dublin apparently
O'Dea undoubtedly from Dublin. There's another 17/18 year old who's doing well in the reserves from Killarney, his name is Diarmuid O'Carroll. He and O'Dea have been mentioned in the same context before...
My astute friend has informed me that Darren O'Dea can be proclaimed the Irish Lucio...i.e. A goalscoring centre half.
Eh Celtic, Rangers? The no. 1 team in the SPL would beat the no. 1 team in the EL and so on.Quote:
