How can Bamford be Championship player of the year yet not make the Championship team of the year? Very illogical. Should have went to Murphy. Congrats to Westwood, Keogh and Murphy.

Mignolet was ahead of him at Sunderland, plus he had a bout of flu prior to playing Man City a few seasons back and didn't play when he was down to start and Mignolet ended up playing with a broken nose or something along those lines so he royally f**ked up his chance of being Sunderland's number 1.

Good keeper, should now be our number 1.

Amid all the delight with the German victory, and the disappointment of the Poland game, only briefly noticed that Rob Elliot (& not Westwood) was called up for the Poland game to replace Given. 

What exactly is the craic here then, is the only fella playing every week gone to Ireland's number 5 ? Is there a fallout, has he retired, will he not play for MON, or is it just that MON won't pick him ? 

Surprised there hasn't been much of a reaction over this, if Trap had pulled a similar stunt, the Trap out lads would have had a field day. As for Given, Longs goal V Germany would never have happened had he (or for that matter Forde) been on goal, neither of them can simply kick the ball as far, or as accurately as Randolph or Westwood. 

I still think this decision to persist with Given will bite us in the arse, should he return for the playoffs. He was extremely flat footed again for Ozil's disallowed goal, he didn't budge when Muller hit one just wide (low, and to the corner) in the first half, an accident waiting to happen. 
Picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.....

I've said this in numerous threads now over the years posting on YBIG but I've suspected there's been a major fallout dating back from the FA Cup tie with Sunderland where he refused to play with a cold despite the fact Simon Mignolet had a broken cheekbone - It's pretty obvious, KW has not started a single competitive match for either Sunderland (When MON was in charge) or Ireland (Since he took over) since.

The fact he played Sheff Wed's last game and played today also proves he wasn't injured over the Int. Period and it was pure spite to not call him up but call up David Forde. 
It's just made been so obvious there's something happening behind closed doors given all the evidence.

It is plain as day that O'Neill has a beef with Westwood great professional that O'Neill is.  Given will play in the play-offs along with Whelan as O'Neill is a stubborn man. The sight of Given in goal makes me mad but even madder at O'Neill cos he picked him. Our set-up is a sad joke!!
