Irish Abroad 2013/2014

[tetsujin1979]

David Mooney came off the bench to score for the 16th time this season this evening. Even more impressive as it was his first appearance in almost two months after getting sent off in his last game.

Graham Kavanagh's Carlisle bounced back with a 3-0 win after some dodgy results. Mikey Drennan came off the bench again in that game.

Someone needs to have a word with whoever wrote his Sky Sports Scorecentre profile

Strange one this, Eoin Wearen was reported to be on trial with Torquay as part of a report on two new signings by one of the local papers a few days ago, but the article's been taken down completely

McSweeney has joined Northampton's Irish contingent. O'Donovan is still on their books so it looks like his move to Brunei fell through.

Are you listening worm??!

Seriously, is he listening, where is he these days?

Did he not take his leave because another poster had a propensity for posting pictures of random players and saying stuff like e.g. "he looks..... smouldering"?

Guy took things too seriously.

Come back, Worm! We miss your list of Irish goalscorers every Saturday!

Last season, Paddy Madden’s goals earned Yeovil Town promotion to the Championship and he was rewarded with his first senior international cap.

But does Mooney realistically believe that something similar could happen to him with new manager Martin O’Neill?

“It’s every footballers dream to play for Ireland and it would be fantastic for me and my family but first and foremost I think I have to be playing in the Championship.

“If I can get in the Championship next year with Leyton Orient or whoever then I’m giving myself the best chance to be involved in a squad but I do think it’s important that you’re playing at a higher level than League One. So hopefully we can do that.

“To be an international playing for Leyton Orient in the Championship probably would’ve been a pipe dream two years ago and for that to become a reality would be fantastic.”

Is Robbie Brady not over 21?

Is Robbie Brady not over 21?

He is, he's 22 (14/1/92), but the definition of an Under 21 player is
“Under 21 Player” means a Player under the age of 21 as at the 1 January in the year
in which the Season concerned commences (i.e. for Season 2013/14 born on or after
1 January 1992);

Joe Gorman in trouble for making a harmless comment on Twitter. "Dish it out but can't take it" comes to mind.

[DannyInvincible]

What was the actual comment? No sign of it in that rather sanitised article and I'm at work so have no access to Twitter. I'd imagine it's been deleted anyway seeing as it stirred a bit of controversy.

And who was dishing it out but couldn't take it?
