He's a possible one cap wonder for England. It's criminal Ireland didn't figure out his nationality links earlier however.

I think its almost inconceivable the FAI didn't know he is Irish qualified. 
Its the one and only thing they are good at.

Is he even eligible though, his ma said he had Irish connections so could mean sweet FA in grand scheme of things. Anyway we have plenty of homegrown talent coming through no need to be worrying about someone who probably isnt qualified and more than likley isnt intrested.

There was a second tweet asking if he had Irish grandparents. He apparently does. 

I don’t think he’ll play for us either way

Was there an actual need to create a thread for this given there's an eligible players thread it could have been thrown into.

 Won't play for us. A waste of a thread. And we all know the internet only has a finite amount of space.

Irresponsible.

I doubt she's clued up on International qualification rules......could be a case she has a grandparent who is Irish so technically he has an Irish grandparent but not enough to meet the criteria

He had very recently been playing for the England U-20 side when he declared for Ireland alright. 

Cyrus Christie also turned down an England U-21 call up to play for us. Further in the past you also had the likes of Kilbane, McAteer, and Clinton Morrison turning down England underage call ups too in favour of lining out for us.
We're decent enough..

Clinton Morrison was very keen to play for England at one time and that didn't go down well initially. He did subsequently commit and fit in well for and became popular with the fans but I doubt if he would conceivably have turned down an England cap.

Well believe it, because as I've literally just said, he turned England down in favour of representing us. That hardly tallies with you claim that he was "very keen to play for England at one time" considering he was lining out for us as a 21 year old?
