    Talking Stephen Ireland Returns to save Ireland

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foot...s/73533880.stm

    Stephen Ireland today flew into Italy to join the Ireland squad after making a last minute call to Ireland manager Giovanni Traprattoni last night.
    "I heard Aiden McGeady was forced to withdraw from the squad through injury so I thought they might need another midfielder as Duff is out too, I figure it's as good a time as any to make a return", said Stephen. "I am part Italian myself through my Grandma, so it will also be a good chance to visit some of my relatives out there".

    I knew there was a good reason for coming to work early this morning.

    That's great news

    The Italians have also called up an unknown player called Paolo Syrfaldi from the Serie D league and is widely tipped to play up front tonight after impressing in trials.

    I woke up to a discussion on BBC R5, that Alan Shearer had returned to save Newcastle and Newcastle fans were talking about Europe.
    The april fool scams are getting more sophisticated.

    BBC still running with the Shearer story:

    Is it really an April Fool I wonder?
    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.

    Even though the news broke last night, and is being covered by a lot of media outlets, it still feels like one big joke.

    Great news but I think now that Schillachi has announced he is to come back out of retirement for tonight's game to play alongside Totti, we are still doomed!

    Even Ireland can't save Ireland. (Or should that be "StEven Ireland can't save Ireland?")

    Hope Stephen's Italian Grandma Cascarino survives the night, he has already unfortunately lost two of his many grannies.

    ps. in a related story, Newstalk have announced that Paul Callaghan (Rugby) is to fight Bernard Dunne in Thomond Park
