Searched in case he was mentioned elsewhere but there was an interview with him in last Sundays Indo
I know most Ireland U19's don't get a thread of their own but there is a novelty value to this lads situation I suppose. Seems to be seen as quite a prospect as well. Pretty level headed kid too.

Alan Smith

its always cork people causing trouble lol
"A silent mouth is sweet to hear" -
It was a very interesting article that. Smith makes La Masia sound like a carpark in Saipan by the way he speaks about the atmoshpere around the Rangers training ground. Out of all the clubs that he spent time with on trial, he felt that Rangers would be the best place to learn his trade, which is as good a reason as any to join a club.
Best of luck to him! -
I'm not a fan of his commentating in the FIFA 12 demo...
I'm still amazed he got 19 caps for England, probably just because he joined Man Utd from Leeds... -
i like his grannys apples

Was thinking the exact same myself. Good luck to the lad. The more Irish lads making the big time the better. Originally Posted by BonnieShels

I'm all for saying fair play to the lad and I wish the religious divide wasn't there but.... -
I was most surprised to learn Rangers had a Dublin scout, and seemingly have had for many years.

Me too, you would wonder what justified his wage up to this point. Or maybe he has reccomended countless Irish lads who went on to make it but would not go near Rangers. Originally Posted by Charlie Darwin

No I didn't -Yard of Pace posted a comment that was slightly, but scarcely criminally, OT. I offered a counterpoint. You then took the hump. Originally Posted by greendeiseboy

Don't mention the 'R' word.
Or the 'C' one...

Wow. I return to this thread after a couple of days absence to find billowing smoke, sirens ringing and ambulances everywhere.
Let me guess: Stephen Ireland?? , NI Eligibility?? David Connolly should start???Quoting years at random since 1975 -
Close. David Connolly has announced his desire to play for Northern Ireland following the acrimonious break up of his affair with Stephen Ireland's granny. Originally Posted by Wolfie

Bringing the thread back down to Earth with a bang -young Alan shipped 5 at home to Hibs U19s at the weekend.

A shame. He's broken his cover too early.

Think I preferred him when he played for Leeds...

That particular gowl is a true blue Rangers supporter. Was so impressed by Hately and co. back in '92 that he's followed them loyally (no puns) since. Made a career of being a switcher. They're welcome to him now and forever more. Originally Posted by ArdeeBhoy
