wes houlihan, shane long ,noel hunt ,stephan ward, roy keane, paul mc grath, curtis flemming, roy o donovan (in scotland now) darly murphy, alan bennett,john o flynn (top scorer for barnet and several champinship teams looking at him) niall mc glynn and paddy mc court playing for celtic, anto stokes came from shels to name but a few.
by the way murphy had plenty of offers but would only leave for a championship or premiership club and has to be garenteed a regular place. also believes bohs can push on in europe.
gary deegan and murphy both turned down moves to kilmarnock as well.

I think we are getting off the topic a bit, but now that we are on it from that list I would give you Shane Long,Stephen Ward and Darryl Murphy. Houlihan was too good for the league here and is now in an out at norwich.
Alan Bennetts move has been a disaster.
Noel Hunt has been a sub more often then not.(did well in bari tho )
John o flynn hasnt done much IMO
Roy O Donavan has been a failure
Paddy McCourt isnt getting a jersey at celtic and has played THREE times for them
Stokes played underage for shels but he isnt doing well either and has had disasterous loans this year
And keane mcgrath and flemming are a different era, were talking about things as they are now, summer football etc

dont think those players have been capped,until then i guess you cant say they have been a success seen as though the thread is about an uncapped player in the LOI..

lads if trap aint gonna go to games in england, were hardly gonna see him down in the morton stadium of a friday night.. We'd all love to have top football over here and attract/keep better players but unfortunately for all concerned if you are playing at home you wont get in the squad |

McGlynn was capped with NI wasn’t he? Regardless of being capped, a lot of those players have/are holding their own. Dave Mooney is another. He’s getting in at Norwich and scoring the odd goal at the moment. |

Don’t think he was the best in the league, near enough though. But he is scoring goals presently in the Championship, what’s wrong with that? |

mooney wasnt getting a sniff at reading agreed but he is flying at norwich scored 3 from 8 including 2 in a row and one match winner. dont forget he has being playing nonstop since jan 08
and john o flynn. barnetts top scorer with 18 not bad for a team in 16th position. he will sign for a chapionship team in the summer in my opinion. norwhich and ipswitch were interested last time i heard.
so your talking through your swiss

to be fair he has a point,these were the very best players in the league and none of them are setting the place on fire over there..

I give up, Mooney had a 12 month purple patch first with Longofrd and then Cork but to say he was the best player by a mile in the LOI is laughable. The credibility of some posters views of football is seriously in doubt IMHO |

right well if norwhich stay up and mooney signs a contract with them i would consider that a sucsess. i do believe he will play for ireland. he needs a good run in a team. this is his debut season and as i said he hasnt had a break in over a year. you have to give the lad a chance

Don’t think anyone expected any of these players to "set the place on fire". The Championship is most certainly a big step up from the Premiership. Doyle has just done exceptionally well to take to the league so well. Give the likes of Mooney and Fahey a chance. They need to get used to the league over there first. |

the point is that the players in ireland are not good enough to play for ireland, and that they need to play regular higher standard football to be considered for a place in the squad.
The best players we have who go over are failing at lower english clubs, so the argument that the best irish players in LOI should be in the squad is poor in my opinion.
yis all had a hooly when lapira got a cap so if murphy was played instead of westwood or heary instead of foley does nobody else think it would be wrong?

Would love to know how many League One / League Two games that people actually see, couldn't be too many, logically speaking.

put it this way, can you image jeff kenna registering himself as a player if he managed anywhere in england?!
i hate to say it but the standard of our league is not as good as the leagues in england, and that is the reason why people in the ireland management will not call up players from it because they do not think the bar is high enough so even if you are the best in the league you are a big fish in a small pond.
