does my pal at St. Johnstone deserve a callup?

More heartache for Kevin Foley who hasn’t been included.

Don’t think so. He wasn’t very lively when he was introduced. Efe Ambrose headered the keeper in the chest, forcing him to drop the cross on the goal line and Cummins tapped it in for the winner. He was “a johnny on the spot” as English tabloid reporters used to write back in the 1990s.

Judge. Was Hogan mentioned anywhere as a possible?

Yeah, he was mentioned by @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy half an hour ago and by O’Neill in the squad announcement press conference.

Never heard of him. One for the things I learned today thread.

I’d trim:

Forde, Pearce, McShane, Ward, Quinn, Gibson, O’Kane, Pilkington, Hayes, O’Dowda, McGoldrick and one of Murphy/Doyle

I like Doyle though, always have. Even if he’s gone a bit off the boil.

I still have some horrific memories of Murphy, which will probably never leave me.

The oirish are midgets.we need some height

Can he head the ball??

Yes

Shane Long is small but has a tremendous leap

he is shit mate

They have the same amount of goals this season and Long is in a harder division. Has Slab ever scored for Ireland?

Slab has been injured

listen mate, I don’t want to continue this any further- only a bogball fan would think long is better than Slab, therefore stick to the bogball
