Mannus not taking up N Ireland call-up

Wednesday, 12 May 2010 17:37

Alan Mannus not taking up place in Northern Ireland squad.

AlanMannusShamrock Rovers have contacted the Irish Football Association to confirm that Hoops goalkeeper, Alan Mannus will not travel with the Northern Ireland squad on their upcoming American tour.

After discussions between Mannus, Hoops boss, Michael O’Neill and Northern Ireland manager, Nigel Worthington, Mannus has decided not to take up his place in the squad.

Northern Ireland will take on Turkey in Connecticut on May 26, and then travel to Chile for a game on May 30. While the Hoops are due to face Bohemians in the Airtricity League on May 29, and Derry City in the EA Sports Cup on June 1.

O’Neill said: “I feel sympathy for Alan at having to miss this opportunity; however he did not want to miss any Rovers games, particularly at this stage of the season. He has been in fantastic form this season and I am sure he will be included in future Northern Ireland squads.”

Mannus added: “Although I am disappointed to miss out on the tour, my priority at this time is with my club. I look forward to being included in future Northern Ireland squads.”



He would have missed the Boh's game had he went. Fair play to the lad, he's been really solid this year

Had he not been capped 4 times already I would have said Trap should call him up whilst they're away, would make me laugh anyway!

I think O'Neill and Worthington are old team mates, so maybe MON just had a quiet word in the ear

For a Mickey Mouse tour of America this is the right decision and if it was another L of I player called up for the Republic, I'd say the same.  Good news for us.
