Was just wondering how many Irish lads there are still floating around that have drifted off the radar after promising starts?

What had me thinking this was the Bosman transfers thread - saw the likes of Colin Doyle and Joey O'Brien. Doyle started in nets for Birmingham the year they came up into the Prem as I recall, but had a shocker on the opening day of the season at Chelsea and just totally disappeared.Disapprove Then O'Brien was looking really good for a while at Bolton, got injured, and that skinny Hunt fooker (don't even know where HE is now!) took his place.Disapprove

I'm sure there's a good few others....

dominic foley
 
always remember getting a train home after a game a friendly game i think before world cup 02 and was sitting across the way from foleys whole family, half way back to cork his old man got a call from mick mccarthy and they chatted for about 10 mins about the game,i think mick's gesture was fantastic, he took time to talk to a parent after a game even though the lad was in his twenties and it was a senior game for ireland.
But fumble in a greasy till

And add the halfpence to the pence

And pray to shivering prayer, until

You have dried the marrow from the bone.

Joe Lapira. Thought he was going to be the next big thing there a few years ago but was apparently abducted by aliens.

Chris McCann looked like he was going to make a breakthrough into the International team until he got injured. Hopefully he'll be back soon.
