O’Brien deal done with Pompey

[Eirambler]

I remember the magazine, it was fairly good. They used to keep an Irish in Britian list, like the one at the top of this forum.

And then it just disappeared off the shelves...

I seem to remember that it was a Wexford based crowd that were running it. Tuff Paddy, any ideas what happened?

It hasn't been updated in 4 years yet they still seem to be paying their annual fees for the domain name. It would have been something like £100 a year back then probably.

Celtic had been linked with O'Brien and now today been linked with Upson. Most people on the Celtic forum's were delighted O'Brien went to Pompey yet they all want Upson. I just said two words: Kenny Cunningham. O'Brien has probably been better beside Cunningham than Upson has been.

/edit - Here's what one Celtic fan had to say when I mentioned Cunningham:

Ive been to loads of Birmingham matches - I was practically a season ticket holder at St Andrews. I couldnt believe what a good defender Kenny Cunningham was - absolutely outstanding. Yet Upson was getting all the credit. Upson is left sided, which is an advantage for a centre-half and he has pace to burn. But he is not the best defender by any means. He gets caught out of postion a lot - I think he's way overpriced.
I would have liked O'Brien despite what some others have said - but that is not to be.
