The lad with the beard? Is he Irish?

Wouldn't O'Shea be the real Messiah. Many thought his career was nearly dead, didn't see him as having a great future for Ireland, but now he has risen from the dead and can do no wrong. An overnight sensation in the David O'Leary mould!
Agh the mind boggles.. yet another idiotic comment I have to read on here...! I'm sure if Martinez was anti-Irish the 4 boys wouldn't be getting regular action. Here's a trick question for you... name one other EPL outfit who has ever fielded 4 of ours in a game?
Keep up the good work Roberto, you doing a cracking job!
Never eat yellow snow!!
Glenn Whelan is training with the squad today, whilst James McCarthy and Stephen Ward are nowhere to be seen.
Is that another wangball style sensationalist joke? Please say yes.
Lads, are we getting a bit carried away with this game? I bought the UK edition of the Irish Times this morning and the sport section has not one single mention of the sport of football let alone a mention of the match itself. Upcoming rugby games against Georgia and Australia get plenty of coverage.
Thats what happens when you read the Irish Times.

And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
good bit of coverage on their website: http://www.irishtimes.com/sport/soccer
I have to say I admire and resent Glenn Whelan's desire to get fit in almost equal measure.
I think with a poor CB pairing having whelan in front of them might actually be a good thing.
It might make us a lot poorer from an offensive viewpoint, but defensively it will make us sound.

If McCarthy doesn't make it, it would probably be best to have the option alright. Otherwise I'd prefer to be without to be honest.

Can't see the logic in this for the life of me. Yes our CB pairing is not the best, and Whelan's lack of mobility only adds to the danger. He is one of the worst midfielders every to pull on the green shirt. Can't run, can't tackle, can't beat a player, hits his fair share of aimless passes. Can't fault his desire to play for his country, but he offers a helluva lot of nothing towards the Irish team. 100 per cent a passenger for Ireland, and I don't care what he does or doesn't do for Stoke.
Mark1-5, what was your take on his performance in Germany? A lot of people round here reckoned he did well, and we looked more solid before he went off. Just curious.
Personally I think Whelan is limited as get out, but has good positioning and is a leader/talker on the pitch. So not without his merits, even if he wouldn't start in my team.
Ou-est le Centre George Pompidou?
Something similar to our last game at Celtic Park would be amazing!
One of the worst to put it on over sixty times?
