Have to admit, I've never heard of Green either. Happy for Ward and Fahey; excited for Meyler and McCarthy. Wonder how many of these faces we'll see in the final squad for Algeria and Paraguay?
I looked up some of his goals for Derby on youtube. Looks a tidy enough player. Think he's injured at the moment, though...
And he's 27. Not exactly a spring chicken. Not sure how I feel about it anymore. If a certain Mr.Stephen Ireland gets sold from Citeh as I expect them to do so this off-season, I get the feeling he might wanna re-up his profile by opting to make himself available for the Green jersey.
Meyler went off with a serious looking injury vs Manchester United today. Looks like he could be out for quite some time - really unfortunate.
Starting XI to play a League of Ireland U-23 team at Gannon Park tonight: ------------------Westwood------------------ McShane (c)---Duffy-----O'Dea--------Nolan OR Cunningham Lawrence-----Green-----Fahey--------Long--- ---------------Best------Sheridan---------------- I have a strange feeling the LOI lads will win this.
U23s lost 1-0 but played well. From a Rovers point of view Billy Dennehy played the first half and Chambers and Duggan the second (which will please our manager). In the press conference Trap name checked Billy. KOH
