Still, if Trap goes on to achieve anything like the success of Charlton than I'll be as happy as anyone.
I'll support my country regardless. I'll do so for the Irish born lads and the lads who, although born abroad; are Irish.
I will not be happy to see Noble, Nolan or O'Hara play for Ireland, because they want to play for England...simple as that.
It is here that I have particular respect for the likes of Kilbane...who turned down England when he was younger.
The only laughable thing is you describing my outlook as such!
