Well I signed Pablo, & i took the time to read the header letter & IMHO you are spot on with everything you say.

**eirebhoy** · 25/08/2005, 5:37 PM

I agree with most of that but on this point:

"Is their any reason why Brian Kerr cant call up 3 or 4 Eircom League players for every International sqaud just to train and gain experience with the squad?"

He called up Jason Byrne to train the squad. He put him on for the last 2 minutes to get him a cap. I'd snap an Ireland cap off your hands in seconds. You either give an Eircom league player 30 minutes or the fans will moan so he can't really win.

Online petitions are crap anyway. Better of sending a plain letter.

Think you need to check this for typos

**superfrank** · 25/08/2005, 10:17 PM

What muppet wrote "Don Givens-England-God Save The Queen"??

I'm afraid Pablo they won't take it seriously if this happens alot. I signed anyway, I don't like Givens.

I think I cocked my signature up cos when I pressed Approve My Signature it read "........ O/'......"

Regardless of the subject this is one of the most abject pieces of writing I have ever read.

Not sure what it is intended to achieve, but I know where it will end up. In the bin, where it deserves to be!

Almost as dismal as your spelling :-)
I have no objection to Givens being replaced.
re, the petition
It is a poorly constructed rant with at least 7 misspellings.
The whole last paragraph is unnecessary, it is a diversion from the petition issue which is I believe "Givens out".
Or is it Givens out, Kerr is ignorant and The Fai is a shambles.
Those last 2 allegations do not support the petition issue

You only have three points to make about Givens
1. Givens is not alone in bringing players on
2. Givens is active against the interests of the EL "pimping" players.
3 Team never qualified

Nr 1. Did Givens suggest such praise was deserving?
Nr 2. Pimping suggests that he makes money from encouraging such moves.
Nr.3. Is his record any worse? what is the goal of the u21's, is it to bring players on? is it to qualify?

"The game (U21 v France) will be played at Turners Cross, Tuesday 6th September, kick off 19.45 hrs".
Looks like Don will be visiting Cork soon enough :-)
