    It could be but Trap was interpreted as referring to McClean being in a stronger position to make the squad as a consequence of that player pulling out.

    Elroy agree its most likely someone who wont see much game time. But i thought it was someone who enabled mcclean to claim one of the spots so more than likely a midfielder. Has coleman a niggling injury?

    Squad eve. I wonder if Trap has made his mind up yet, or if he's still mulling over a couple of spots?

    McGeady has confirmed that he's not the player pulling out and Birmingham have said Fahey may be fit for Wednesday's playoff second leg. It also appears Hunt isn't the player in question.

    Well, we'll know tomorrow. My guess is Jon Walters for whatever reason. "Personal reasons" is likely to mean family related issues rather than "I think the goalies should play in the 5 a sides and if not I'm going home to walk my dog" related.

    If there's a player pulling out, my penny is on Gibson.

    I cant wait for this to start. And this clip always gets the juices flowing. It's worth watching again.

    It wouldn't be harsh, it would be fantastic. He is not better than McCarthy, Whelan, Andrews, Gibson, Fahey, Clark etc and really should not be within an asses roar of the squad

    Paul Rowan's Sunday Times preview predicts Green making the squad, with Fahey and McCarthy omitted. Then again, it's Paul Rowan and he also claims Derby are letting Green go...

    Why you reckon Gibson might be unwilling to travel?

    Gibson's daughter has had serious health problems over the past couple of years. He's had to miss games before to be with her in the hospital.

    Was it just the Norway game back in 2010 that he missed over that?

    She looked fine when Utd won the title year. Does she have a long-term illness or is it all cleared up now?

    I think I may have exaggerated that one in my head. I was sure she had been ill for quite a will but she was definitely in hospital.

    If Jon Walters has a sick child over the last few months why is he still playing for Stoke when they've had nothing to play for in the EPL run-in?

    Here's me prediction for tomorrow:

    Given
    Westwood
    Forde

    Ward
    St. Ledger
    Dunne
    O'Shea
    O'Dea
    Foley
    Kelly

    Whelan
    Andrews
    McGeady
    Duff
    Gibson
    McClean (if Fahey is indeed the player unable to travel)
    Hunt
    Green

    Keane
    Doyle
    Walters
    Cox
    Long

    I don't see a place for Coleman, who's had a poor season. Not entirely sure what Trap makes of him anyway. Don't see a place for McCarthy either, unfortunately. I think Trap will give Green the nod ahead of him. Bringing Green on over McCarthy against the Czechs is indicative of the current pecking order. McCarthy and Coleman will be on standby along with Clark and Duffy; maybe Henderson, Wilson, McShane, Best, Keogh and/or Treacy too.

    He can still live at home when playing in England. Playing in the Euros means being away from home for 3/4 weeks min. That applies to whoever it might be.

    I agree but I would switch Cox/Long at the end.

    What about Andy Reid? Maybe he's the player who has the personal problems and will miss out?

  20. Thanks From:

    Ha, just wrote the names out; not necessarily indicative of what I think the striking pecking order is.
