    Keith Fahey

    For those of you who don't know much about him or doubt his talent, he'll be live on RTE2 from 5 this evening.

    Watch as he runs the midfield show

    Probably Arsenal, Man U, or Chelsea right? Surely he must if he should play above the Reids, Andrews, Treacy, Miller, Carsley, Delap, Lawrence, Whelan, etc., etc.

    Oh wait he plays for St. Pats



    He's a fine player, but until he makes the move across the water or some of our many midfielders playing in the EPL and CCC fall off he won't make the team. Its the said truth about the LoI.

    Fahey can pass a ball better than all of them except Andy Reid.

    Delap had his chance,and did sfa,Andrews has done nothing to date at Blackburn(he could do with bulking up)Treacy does he even play senior football??

    He will run the show,tomorrow against better players than,the ones you named.

    Miller,another underachieving player does he even get his game??

    Forward this thread to anyone who disputes that Skyreland fans are ignorant about football.

    Fahey is actually too good for Skyreland and the Premiership in that neither have any use for classical playmakers. He'd probably be plonked on the right wing and touch the ball about twice (although he could still win games with his set-pieces alone.)

    No way is Andy Reid a better passer of the ball. Andy Reid is just the fat man's Wes Hoolahan.
    A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.

    Very true,as Trapp said "the ball is always in the air in the EPL"
    OK,i should have said maybe,yea Reid is a joke actually,for a professional footballer.

    Trap has seen him play, and isn't even trying him out against Nottingham Forest I guess. I doubt will see him soon (read the last line of my above post)

    Trap saw him once.

    in fairness he was very good against Hertha in the first round. What happened the EL forum, is it now the Premier and 1st division one? How are tickets selling for tonights game is it going to be a sell-out?

    Won't be a sell out. Irish peole just don't care about Irish teams.

    6,000 expected according to radio this morning. I thought it'd be about half that with the kick off time etc

    (Oh and the error above should've been followed by a (sic) as I was replying to "Trap has seen him" above. I know how you like to be correct on these matters POS)

    He's a fine player, but until he makes the move across the water or some of our many midfielders playing in the EPL and CCC fall off he won't make the team. Its the said truth about the LoI.
    In the same way as many on here were stating that Roy O'Donovan was a fine player and the best by a distance in the EPL last season? Yes that same Roy O'Donovan who can't even get into the first 11 for Dundee United and hasn't scored a single goals for them in nearly a dozen appearances.

    Or possibly as fine a player as Alan Bennett? Yes that same Alan Bennett who was never good enough to get break into the Reading first team and was quickly loaned out to lower league teams where he still looked shockingly bad.

    Or maybe as fine as Jason Byrne? Yes that same Jason Byrne that couldn't break into the Cardiff first team and was promptly sold on at the first opportunity.

    Perhaps even as fine as Dave Mooney. Yes that same Dave Mooney, ah f**k it you know the rest.

    The only quality player that has come from the EPL in recent years is Doyle. The rest have in rare cases at best been very average (Murphy) or more generally been complete sh*t (see above).

    Keith Fahey me balls.

    Funny how you use first team football as the barometer to slate the others yet describe a premiership regular like Murphy as average.

    O'Donovan was ****e (always said it). He's quick though and that goes a long way in our league. Byrne is a poor footballer with a knack for scoring (never going to be good enough outside this league). Bennett wasn't in top 6/7 centre halves in Ireland. Mooney's not great either IMO but at leat give him a bit fo time. Its a fairly big step up so I think its too early to write him off.

    Fahey's a better passer of the ball then ANYONE in the Irish squad. He has loads of faults though (like most Irish players) but the aboive who said he goes missing in games is just plain lying. If anything he tries too hard sometimes and not everything he tries works out for him. I wouldn't pick him in my Ireland squad

    BTW Ireland legend Joe O'Cearuill is our 5th choice centre half.

    Getting into the first team is the first measure of any footballer's success. However even if he's in the first team that doesn't necessarily mean he's good. He has to be performing consistently at a good level.

    Anyway Murphy hasn't been a regular in the first team for Sunderland this season.

    While I appreciate that facts aren't really a massive part of your argument Roy O'Donovan has had 4 starts and come off the bench at the weekend for Dundee United. They've played 7 games and he wasn't yet there when the SPL kicked off. So 5 is nearly a dozen now is it? But yet he can't get near the team?
    The ball is round and has many surprises.

    A tip for the future if you're going to try (the important word here is try) to be clever and pull someone up over a slight irregularity in their facts (in the context of the overall argument) at least make sure that your own stated facts are sound. He has played 6 games not 5 and he was at Dundee Utd there when the SPL started.

    Don't look so smart now do you? Feel a bit stupid? Now go and stand at the back of the classroom with your face to the wall.

    He hasn't started a league game in over a month. Only been used as a substitute.
