Richly deserved.

Well, he's got a song.

As long as he comes off totally unscathed. Fuck all else matters.

Yeah okay we get it, but the lad's captaining his country for Christ's sake...hope he has a cracker, something for him and us to be very proud of

McCarthy saw this tweet and realised...

 

[Blade for Sale]

He came to us from Brentford
He cost next to fuck all
Alonside Jack O Connell
He plays like a brick wall

And now he captains Ireland
And we're all proud as punch
If you're a centre forward
He'll have you for his lunch

Allez allez allez......

Who's we? You speak for everyone?
When we have a squad of the depth and quality of any of those the top 6 have I've got a hard on when one of ours gets a call up. Until then im shitting myself someone like Egan misses a game or God forbid the rest of the season playing for a side I don't given a fuck about.

Good to see Conor Hourihane getting a place at left back. If John Egan plays well, maybe they'll move him into Midfield or goal for the Georgia game.

Fantastic, happy for him, I think he’s been great so far this season

 

[BLADES1988]

Well chuffed for him, a whole hearted GLTTL!!! I always shit myself when the lads go on international duty because of the chance of injury, but its probably their dream to play for their country so you cant deny them that.

Ernest Needham captained England when he was our player, not sure if Billy Gillespie has captained Ireland. Any more?

 

[s4-blade]

Not sure how you go from sat on the bench to captaining the side but that’s international football for you, bizarre.

The most bizarre thing of course being that he was on the bench in the first place.

Doesn't need some work.

APPROVED!
