doyle and kearney start for ireland

Fair play to the boys. Its a testament to the two of them that they are keeping fellas that are over in england out of the team. Well done lads!

Nice one. One of this mornings paper is wrong. (nothing unusuall there)

Team: Henderson (Notts County); Kelly (Tottenham Hotspur), McCarthy (Manchester City), Fitzgerald (Blackburn Rovers), Capper (Scarborough); McGeady (Celtic), Potter (Liverpool), Whelan (Sheffield Wednesday), Kearney (Cork City); Doyle (Cork City), Elliott (Sunderland.

Subs: Murphy (Swansea City), McStay (Leeds United), Flood (Manchester City), Thornton (Sunderland), Tabb (Brentford), Foley (Luton Town), Capper Murphy (Waterford United).

-----------------

Means Kearney is keeping Flood (next best thing) & Thornton (used to be next best thing) out of the team as they play in similar positions which should make the eL knockers take notice.

Thornton is more a central midfield player so he is not really in Kearney's position. Surprised not to see him start though. Wilo Flood is though and was getting some rave reviews for Man City not so long ago so fair play to Kearney for starting ahead of him.

'Twould be sweet if Shels could take some of the U21s who aren't getting a game with their club on loan.

It's 3-0 to Ireland at the moment, Doyler got the 3rd.
Both Doyler and Kearney started the game.

Fair Play to Doyler! Hopefully him and Kearney did well!

C'mon man .... name and shame .... what paper was it ??

How did they get on anyway .... did anyone go up for it ??

**Ruairi** · 04/09/2004, 11:34 AM

wasn't the best game in the world Face, it has to be said. doyler was used as a target man, which was a bit strange, but he did well. his goal was a header which was pretty much on the line, good cross from potter.

the first goal was a belter from glen whelan, second a set piece which fitzgerald got a head to on the back post.

I was at it too and was just sitting behind a certain Pat Dolan. Perhaps he was checking out the talent (on the pitch of course!). Doyle played ok and Kearney was the same. A lot of cork city jerseys at the game!

Liam and Kevin are in the starting XI again tonight for the game in Berne.
Well done lads for making the places your own and all the very best of luck tonight.

**Ruairi** · 07/09/2004, 11:31 AM

yeah fair play to the lads. they look really comfortable at international level. hopefully another few goals for doyler might grab the attention of a certain B.Kerr.....
