Gary Cahill
Is it possible to put together a team of current Premiership players who were eligible for Ireland but have elected to play for another country?
Got stuck with the goalkeeping position, but the rest of this team looks pretty decent.
AN Goalkeeper
Anton Ferdinand
Zat Knight
Rio Ferdinand
Kieron Richardson
Aaron Lennon
Paul Scholes
Kevin Nolan
James Milner
Wayne Rooney
Tim Cahill
sub(s)
Darren Fletcher
(there must be a few more?)
Gary Cahill
Its really not that complicated!!!
Oh good Lord .....
If my aunty had balls she would be my uncle.
In Trap we trust
ahhh i love Kevin Nolan , Chris Armstrong
Jose Luis Brown in the Argentina 1986 side, Always remember Jimmy Magee claiiming he had a grandparent from outside Athlone.
Oh good Lord .....
interesting thread tho...
what was the situation with scholes? how could he have played for us?
Also aaron Lennon? I doubt that.
Jamie Carragher, Clint Dempsey(USA), Joe Hart I presume would all have Irish heritage. Clint Dempsey looks so Irish as well.

Scholes has family in letterkenny and visited the town regularly as a youngster
Havin a weekend away is quite frankly,lettin ur team mates down!
Jamie O'Hara of Spurs?
I thought you were off the drink Ronnie?
"No, I drink to help me mind my own business....can I get you one? (c) Ronnie Drew
both parents and he didnt join Ireland, its always the country parents kids that seem to join. more proud of their heritage and upbringing i spose.
Martin keown - disputes the above fact..
david healy, aaron hughes...etc etc.
irishultra we have done this a few times before i think thats partly why ifk did that, also the term "got away" is probably another reason...
I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
Keown's family are involved in the GAA in Oxford I believe.
However, I'm slightly surprised at this thread. Alot of second and third generation lads get stick for their accents at Ireland games I've been to. So why does it matter if people like O'Hara, Keown etc play for England anyway...
Who put the ball in Englands net? Sheedy Sheedy!
All hail Kevin Sheedy!
Ye he really does look irish
