    True but he might not even be aware that this is suddenly becoming a story. Footballers can be remarkable unaware of what's going on around them especially as he's living in England rather than Scotland or Ireland.

    If he doesn't know he certainly will soon enough as journalists will be trying to contact him 24 hours a day to get the story.

    Either way we'll probably know for sure in a month when the squad for Macedonia is announced.

    He likely has an inkling, but still why would he say anything else? What would he say?

    "James is switching to Scotland." Media explosion. "He's staying with Ireland." Media explosion. Either way the same, and he comes across as a manager who is getting involved where he doesn't belong.

    He says it's James' decision. He says it's club football for now. It's utter wishful thinking to believe he should come out (possibly wearing a leprechaun hat) and say: "James McCarthy is 100% for Ireland."

    Martinez isn't the one fanning the flames here - it's media stirring and resultant hysteria.

    SKY Sports News text service quotes Martinez, as the Indo does, saying that he was withdrawn because of injury but they omit any reference to switching. It's not like SSN to miss out on a bit of gossip or speculation, especially when they own the rights to show this tournament.

    He's made his position clear countless times. Perhaps this accounts for his tiredness?

    He wasn't tired though, injured, RSI.

    Oh yeah I totally agree. Personally I don't think James has to say anything since he's already said it approximately 20,000 times.

    But the nation needs a Tommie Gorman style interview with James.

    Positive stuff from the Examiner. Direct quote from Trap saying McCarthy will be called upon for the Macedonia squad.

    The latest on Tartam Army Forum here http://taboard.com/forum/index.php?s...c=125814&st=90 , a fair bit of softening toward the idea in the last day on there but nothing definite either, no one ITK as far as I can tell either, they are just reading between the crumbs of the Martinez, Levein and McArthur interviews.

    I would like to think this is just McCarthy letting it all pile up on Trap, making him cap him. and If it is the case, Trap has it all coming, as he has been an idiot in this. But I think McCarthy has definitely asked for time here.

    All we had to do was make him feel wanted, should have been pretty simple.

    Hyland sounds a lot like Noely on a bad day, when his paranoia is up.

    Noely is a great contributor here, he has been in the states though that might be why. Hyland being here is (in) the thick of it!

    yeah, what's he saying?

    Is there some sort of competition among Irish hacks to see who can undermine the team's chances the most? The Tom Humphreys Trophy or something.

    Ken Early's getting involved now too, although he actually makes reasonable considered points instead of tabloidy jabs.

    I wonder if James has been getting doses of caledonia (not the dolores keane version - the dougie version) playing in his ear and a james joyce fondness now that he is miles away.
