McGeady is scottish.
BTW playing against Falkrik doesn't match you international class.
Stuttgart88, right click on the link and select "save target as" and a window
should pop-up asking you where you want to save the file etc...
That should give you an idea of what is going on.

Thanks!! Great goal by MOTM McGeady, lets hope he starts from now on....Originally Posted by Junior
Here fishy fishy. He's an Ireland international, Pete, whether you like it or not. And he'll be a regular in the senior squad in years to come, you'll see.Originally Posted by pete

It's the standard Huddleboard response which is good training for the few muppets that frequent this board.Originally Posted by Junior

Pete was over the moon opening this thread. His mood seems to have changed now.
Stuttgart - what tricky_colour said should work. Sometimes wmv files try to open in the browser.
Tks - I actually managed to view it finally. Nice bit of skill alright
another of kerrs failings-not giving this lad a chance at friendly level-i think he gave mcgeady 90 seconds at the end of 2 games. even if he didnt have a great season last year-the lad is simply fantastic. plays the game like the duffer used to...sigh

Either does playing against Crewe,Plymouth etc etcOriginally Posted by pete
I know. SPL is combination of English Championship & English League One standard. McGeady may be an irish international but hes still as scottish as Ray Houghton.Originally Posted by drinkfeckarse
I watched him in U21 international this season in Tolka Park & could see why not in senior squad or Celtic team. I wouldn't expect any barstoolers here to know what live football is though.
You like generalising Pete don't you.....Originally Posted by pete
Man of the match today against Rangers. Lets hope his current form continues.

...and your a pric* . prawn sandwich brigade and all that you wouldn't know a good footballer if ya seen one. he was class against nesta and ac milan in the champions league, regardless of ability however, his nationality is irish i think you will find, and what the hell has it to do anyway. if rooney was playin for ireland i bet you'd be licking his ar*eOriginally Posted by pete
He was terrible in that U-21 game, but he's improved a lot in a short space of time and deserved a goal (even that one!) today against Rangers. I thought it was interesting that he played his best football of the game after being moved in behind Hartson when Thompson came on. This is the position that's been mentioned for him before, and it does seem to be his most effective. The only problem with it is that you have to have 2 defensive midfielders behind him as he doesn't do enough defensively
BBC said he was MOTM.
pure nonsense from pete (as usual)
the kid is of irish decent and the fact a catholic from glasgow's east end defines himself as irish says a great deal about scottish society.
you have seen him have 1 bad game. so what. he is an out and out winger, and they all have off days.
the reality he is keeping an player who has been capped for england on the bench and ran rings around a dutch international on saturday. says a lot about the temprement of any player to remain cool enough in the white heat of an old firm to get MOTM.
if duffer wasnt in the irish set up he would have 15 caps by now.
this guy is the real deal and is a proud irish man, regardless of birth. bu your logic, Caulfield was born in the states, so he isnt a true ca.wkie?
I thought Steven Reid did really well when he came on against the Swiss. It's good to see McGeady return to form. If you'd seen any of his performances early season, or for the U21s against Switzerland you wouldn't be so positive about him. And Duff instead of Keane? Just like against Israel? That really worked. Duff is a waste of space as an outright forward IMO.Originally Posted by kickR
I think we're arriving at a situation where we have quite a few prospects for an advanced midfield or "behind the front men" role: Reid, Duff, McGeady, possibly Stephen Ireland & even Robbie Keane. We've carried no threat from central mid for a long time and I think somehow accomodating this type of player may well be they key to winning tight games against the type of opposition we've struggled to beat since the last World Cup.
It's exactly how I'd like to have seen the last 20 minutes of the last game against the Swiss played: Clinton & Elliott outright forwards, Robbie just behind, S. Reid, Killbane & Holland as a tight strong midfield 3, Carr & Harte getting forward from full back.
From eTims.net, after the rangers game:
McGeady 8 MOTM - What a difference a spell on the sidelines makes learning your trade. Has all the trickery but has now added a new found workrate to his game and what a difference it makes. His run to chase back and catch Ferguson was first class as was his general play all game. His first Old Firm goal was a special moment and hopefully this is the start of this young man showing just how good he really is.
