That I know, but I'm sure I saw a quote from him slagging off Givens, saying he doesn't even drive, which would be another classic fib

The motor was supplied by a company called Overfinch who specialise in customising Range Rovers. If you look at a good quality image of the photo you will see the 'Range Rover' lettering on the bonnet has been replaced by 'Overfinch' (in pink of course!)

In fairness, great player but after what has happened the last few months this guy does himself no favours. The guy is in serious need of some guidance. If anything you would think he would be keeping his head down and keeping a low profile for the next few months.

the hamster is drunk at the controls of that lad's brain.

**BigmanCas** · 25/02/2008, 2:50 PM

he never ceases to amaze me, this guy.

**NeilMcD** · 25/02/2008, 3:13 PM

Too much money + great football brain + no common sense = Stephen Ireland

Pink Range rover + superman underpants + skanger haircut = Off his head !!!

Definitely in need of some serious guidance and brain-cell transplant ....

But hope that he comes back to play for us - when he gets on that pitch, he seems to gain some IQ

Couldn't agree more. Yet another shining example (Beckham being another that springs immediately to mind) that football intelligence does not corellate to actual intelligence.

I think that goes for 95% of footballers these days!

See any post match interview!

Obviously, you bought the "miscarriage" yarn, just like everyone bought the dead grannies one before it, twice.

When you're determined to walk out on your country's needs for a couple of days, subsequently carry on playing for your club as if nothing had happened, refuse to play for your country again (even against Brazil), until the very week a new boss is appointed, there's clearly more to this "miscarriage" mularkey than meets the ear.

You got any proof to back that up? Other than hearsay, conjecture and circumstantial evidence, of course.

Beyond reasonable doubt!

He has not missed a single game for City during the period of mourning for his Grannies miscarriages

He was not available for the games in Dublin in October, mind you in fairness he had a load of mother's mind masses to attend

He informed the FAI he was not available for selection at present and HAS never changed that stance FACT

So I would say that there is enough to prove that he has no interest in playing for his country, probably because the lads would slag him about his pinkee (pink jeep)

**stojkovic** · 26/02/2008, 8:36 PM

He says he was 5 when he played u11s. Impossible.

Fair enough, but I meant the allegations mypost is raising against Stephen Ireland's claims that his girlfriend had a miscarriage. He'd really want some proof to back that up.

what of my comments are untrue, come on or is this a Cork thing, I mean we've had Roy Keane, Stephen Ireland, the Cork Football and Hurling teams, is it that there should be one rule for Cork sportspeople and another for the rest
