He is irish, Celtic has nothing to do with this

Good post

McGeady is finished haha brilliant!!

You're the one that doesn't get it, Brown plays league one equivalent week in week out, why has no one ever signed him from Celtic? He's hardly in demand ffs, McCarthy is a classy footballer who will go on to bigger things than Everton I'm sure of it. Oh and in terms of where Keane is now in his career I would take Naismith any day of the week presently. Take the blinkers off some of you and admit that Brown isn't actually all that.

You have never dealt with the fai, only joking about the support mate!

Luckily we don't pick any from our irish league but I bet you didn't know that Coleman, McClean, Doyle, Ward, Forde, Meyler all started off in LOI so it's not all doom and gloom but our league is very poor, no denying that for a second.

Sorry I thought I was discussing McCarthy v Brown with someone, must have been a different thread....

A more effective player means a better all round one and to me that is nonsense but sure what can ya do.... One question for ya, what english division would you say the spl is the equivalent to at the moment, championship?

7 of you and thousands of us! Sure the fai still havent told the applicants their situation yet, what a farce.

Lisbon lions stand is gonna have irish scattered everywhere, seems to be where most of the SFA tickets were bought for.

Think McCarthy was runner up in everton POTY last year so he must be doing something right and he's getting better and better, you can't really believe that Brown is actually better than James, really?

The atmosphere for this is gonna be electric, both fans will make for a fantastic occasion wherever they are all from! Incidentally I am in with the scots for this, wish I wasn't now!

I just hope James doesn't let the occasion get to him, this is a key battle on the night for sure..

Yet Brown plays for Celtic and McCarthy is playing in a top6 EPL side, go on outta that!!

The Celtic love in with some of the irish is pure cringe alright.. You reckon many proper celts will be supporting ireland? If so that is ridiculous!!

I tend to agree to a point, he wasted time in Moscow for sure but he seems to have improved since joining everton, he has been so frustrating for us but he is the kinda player we can't leave out cos he can create that bit of magic. As for Brown v McCarthy there really is no contest!

Apologies if this is in the wrong section so a mod can move if needed. Anyway I'm expecting a hostile reception for these 2 in a few weeks, just wondering what's the feeling amongst the TA towards these 2 lads? Wouldn't surprise me if one of these is "injured" for this but I hope not

Problem with this game for me is that it will bring its element of irish idiots as its a big game and easy to get to, I just hope they dont ruin it for everyone, they will be a minority for sure but it doesn't take much to cause shit

Cheers for the heads up re: lager! I hear ya on the shit hole comment, you're not the first to say this, hard to know really what's the best to do but I guess the police would rather keep us all together, easier to police

Sure it wasted a bit of your day posting a nothing reply, whatever floats your boat lad

Fai letting people know this week if they got tickets or not while SFA selling tickets to the public for the past week and beside the away section, sounds like another shambles from our end but not surprised really as our association is a joke.

Good input cheers

As a fellow irish man this post really is embarrassing, funny thing is I think you're serious!

Howya lads, just wondering what the scots think of the irish having a meet up in Gallowgate? Talk of a walk from there up to the ground, police have given the approval to this apparently.
