    He was quoted in one of the Sunday papers saying he was delighted that Keane was back and that he was looking forward to playing with him. Whatever the rights and wrongs about that statement, its hardly the words of someone who'll never play for Ireland again. He's also pretty sure of his starting spot, so I can't really see why he'd opt to leave at this stage unless he's had a major spat with Kerr.
    Maybe you should put her on a leash, agent-man.

    Carr the first to drop out of squad


    SPURS defender Stephen Carr became the first player to withdraw from the Ireland squad last night.

    Within minutes of the 24-man squad being announced Carr was pulled out because he has had a back injection and won't be fit enough to travel as he needs rest.

    In addition to Roy Keane, there are recalls for Nick Colgan, David Connolly, Andy O'Brien, John O'Shea and Sunderland duo Jason McAteer and Gary Breen.

    Manchester City's Richard Dunne hasn't been selected at the request of his club. Dunne has a groin problem which prevents him training between matches and needs an operation this summer.

    If Keane makes it on the plane to Poland next Monday afternoon he will be on course to make his first appearance in an away friendly international since the game against Wales in 1997. Prior to that his last friendly appearance outside these islands was in May 1994 against Germany in Hanover.

    SQUAD - Given (Newcastle), Colgan (Hibernian), Kenny (Sheff Utd), Maybury (Hearts), Cunningham (Birmingham), Doherty (Tottenham), Harte (Leeds), Carr (Tottenham), O'Brien (Newcastle), Breen (Sunderland), O'Shea (Man Utd), Miller (Celtic), Roy Keane (Man Utd), Reid (Nottm For), Holland (Charlton), Delap (Southampton), McAteer (Sunderland), Kinsella (West Brom), Kilbane (Everton), Duff (Chelsea), Lee (Cardiff), Connolly (West Ham), Robbie Keane (Tottenham), Morrison (Birmingham).

    I have never heard so much rubbish, Carr has missed the last games for spurs he has a back injury what do u want players to play when they are injured in meaningless friendlies. If you have nothing contructive to say about players say nothing, this is just rubbish

    Carr had a bust up with Ian Harte and Kerr before the last friendly but it was nothing serious...the guy has been struggling with a back injury for spurs (probably from carrying the team) and hasn't really ben playing.....

    I wouldn't rush to any conclusions yet lads.....

    Chris Hughton is Irelands coach and Spurs coach...i'm sure if there is a problem he will iron it out

    Although he played well against the Czech Republic he is simply not in the same class as Carr and Finnan.
