Is it just me or does anyone else feel we have a bigger/better selection in the championship
We'll never die, we'll never die
Has Ireland ever had as many players in the premier league and championship in our history(life was simpler when it was plain old 1st and 2nd divisions)
Totally agree. Looking at players who are in the squad / team versus those not in it
Would much prefer Foley and St Ledger over McShane (CB) or McShane (FB)
Garvan, O'Toole, McCann, Tabb over Miller, Whelan, Andrews, Gibson
N.Hunt, Morrison, Walters over Murphy, Folan, Stokes.
Might be a stupid question but is the Southampton McGoldrick any relation to Irish "legend" Eddie. he looks kile a class player
Don't forget Stephen McPhail and Mark Kennedy at Cardiff!
-------------Westwood--------
Foley--St. Ledger--McCarthy--Ward
-------------Carsley------------
Walters --------------------S. Hunt
-------------O'Toole------------
----------Doyle------N. Hunt-----
he might have adopted him aka Ian Wright and Wright Phillips !!!

You'll NEVER beat the Irish.......you'll just draw with us instead!!!
Great Thread.
Foley and Ward over Kelly and Delaney for me. However shows how much good up and coming talent we have emerging.
Personal team for the future would be:
Westwood
Foley St Ledger McCann Ward
Scannell O'Toole Garvan Hunt
Doyle Keogh
Subs: Bruce, Tabb, N Hunt, Long & Walters
Chris McCann seems to be scoring either 8 or 9 in Burnley fans ratings every game.They are raving about him.
Wes Hoolihan at Norwich, though he might have fallen foul of Roeder.
