i see an article in the sun today (monday)about him saying how steve staunton was tryin 2 contact him all last night to ask him to join up with the ireland squad for their upcoming trip to the US. Staunton kept ringin him but gartos fone just kept ringing out and staunton was under pressure to call sum1 in before the 10pm deadline last nite so he called up Alan Bennett of Reading (ex-cork) instead.
Garto said he is absolutely devastated and that this is the lowest point of his career. Im gutted for the lad because he was a quality player when he was with us and hes come on leaps and bounds in the professional set up of Drogheda. Hopefully hel be given another chance if any1 gets injured on the tour
Glad he didn't answer the phone now as the game would have been off and we would have missed out on 3 points
Gartland must be even more gutted now after missing an Ireland call up and then getting himself banned instead. Realistically I don't think he's good enough to get a call up. Shelly is a miles better player.
