Why? They're hardly going to sell a good squad player for half what they paid for him a year ago.Originally Posted by TheOneWhoKnocks
how big is this game overall?
i'd say it's our biggest game since the sweden home game in the last qualifying campaign. we desperately need a result. realistically a win. can we achieve it?
i've booked my flights to dublin for it but needless to say match tickets aren't even on sale yet. never really understood the idea of holding off on general sale til a few week before the game. maybe once upon a time it made sense.
Squad to be announced tomorrow: http://www.independent.ie/sport/socc...-31211882.html
Also, McClean in talks with New York Red Bulls
really hope he doesnt got to NYC. Won't do his international career much good i dont think
Folding my way into the big money!!!
I don't think it would harm his international career to be honest. I think he would tear it up over there. I would however be concerned that he is just far too good for MLS. He should be aiming for a low PL or high Championship switch.
I don't think it would do him any good to be tearing it up over there.
Would rather see him in a more competitive league, obviously a Premier league club would be the ideal
Folding my way into the big money!!!
Oh me neither Fixer, I just don't think it would harm his intl career, especially in the short to medium term.
As I said, he's good enough to aim for a move the PL or Championship but....looking at it from his perspective....a move away from the fishbowl that British footie is for him might be attractive to him...minimal poppy type controversy in NY.

I think it's absolutely ridiculous that Adam Rooney has been called up ahead of Eoin Doyle. I would include Madden & E. Doyle over Rooney & Cox all day long.
Deserved for Alan Judge though.
You would think Sean Kavanagh or Tommie Hoban would warrant inclusion, considering the woes at LB.
Sean Scannell is, perhaps, unlucky there are better players in front of him.
My guess at the final squad, assuming it'll be shortened to 27 players ahead of the games:
Forde Given Westwood Coleman R Keogh O’Shea Wilson Christie Pearce McShane Ward McGeady McCarthy Arter McClean Pilkington Hendrick Whelan Brady Judge Meyler Hoolahan Keane Doyle Walters Long Murphy
Team to play Scotland:
Given
Coleman O'Shea Wilson Ward
McGeady McCarthy Whelan Brady
Hoolahan
Long

Where are the supposed new granny rule players who O'Neill stated in his last press conference that we might be pleasantly surprised with??
“I’m following up on a number of leads, I don’t want to sound like a detective. There’s one or two might come to fruition before the Scotland game and you might be pleasantly surprised.”

Alan Judge and Adam Rooney. Spose Arter counts as well.
They are not what he was implying. He was referring to lads like Callum Wilson...

Ah sorry, I replied before you edited.
Do players from Dublin count as granny-rule now CD?

LOOK AT THE TIME OF THE EDIT, NIGEL.
I am moderately intelligent sometimes, I swear.
Enough of the excuses, typical Shamrock Rovers fan!

Delighted for Judgey, hope he makes the cut.
Rooney over Doyle "ridiculous"?
