His performance in this game was possibly the worst I have even seen professional football (and I've seen Paul McShane play) - quite how he had the cheek to earn a living from the game let alone win 100 caps for Ireland I really don't know

Most people on here will enjoy this - except for Peter who will moan about us giving the ball away for one of their chances
Paul McShane? The bloke out of Hi-De-Hi? :-\Quote:

Naturally I would.
I respect of international caps we have an admirable number of utter shít****s with many caps.
McClean, the latest incumbent of the role, will surely go on to 100.

Might as well have been - I refer of course to the Irish centre half of no discernible talent.Quote:

There will never be another player like Dennis. Ever....
