    Unbelievable stuff. There is such dross being reported recently and the journos need to be held accountable. I had a pop off Dan McDonnell recently over his Harry Arter not returning to Ireland story. He DM'd me to say that the story was from another journo, his name was just put to it but the journo has been reprimanded privately. Judging from the convo, it was Kevin Palmer- a man who has had a story or two Rice also. Neil O'Riordan and Palmer have lost a lot of credibility, if they had any.

    To be fair, in my opinion Dan McDonnell comes across as a fairly considered and accurate journalist when it comes to reporting on and breaking stories. I was surprised when his name was attributed to that Arter not returning story in the hours prior to the October squad announcement. If it was actually another journo's misreporting then I'd be more than a bit miffed that my name was associated with it.

So I’m giving no faith to the Declan Rice sound bites. His Ireland career is with O’Leary in the grave, as far as I’m concerned.

    When you google "daily star declan rice" one of the first links is an exclusive that he's definitely going to switch to England.
    Also, it's from October.

    Mick McCarthy has spoken to his father and is to sit down with Rice this month. You'd wonder did the previous regime not try hard enough to get him on side.

    The previous regime wouldn't go after any player unless he came to them first. They had the complete wrong way of doing things.

    From all the word we have heard though I'm sure his old man would be absolutely honoured to answer the phone to Mick. And I'm sure his old man was utterly honoured to answer it to Roy Keane too. Given that his dad and uncle(s) have been pushing him in our direction then I'm not sure if Mick will make much of a difference. It will be an indictment on the previous regime if it's a factor in his decision.

    Given and Robbie Keane strike me as more personable chaps than Roy too which might be a help!

    criticism needs to be balanced.
    rice was with our underage teams long before mon should have had anything to do with him. mon also appears to have met and spoken to both declan rice and his family on a number of occasions. no irish manager should have to plead with any player..... especially one he has already capped 3 times!!!!!!

    Interesting point by Dion Fanning on the Second Captains. He thinks Robbie Keane will play a big part in Rice talks, as Mick has confirmed. He refers to the theory that Rice's agent is pushing him to play for England but he reckons Robbie is "well-connected" in the agent game and "commands respect" of agents with some of the big deals he has been involved in. Fanning also states that Keane is very relevant and a PL years highlight package would feature him quite a bit and he didn't do badly out of playing for Ireland.

    You could also argue that Dion Fanning is yesterdays man in the world of journalism (much like Philip Quinn actually), and time waits for no man in football.

    I would prefer if Mick brought Coleman our captain to the meeting instead of Robbie
