Any Players From Northern Ireland?

[Guest]

Are any of you from Northern Ireland at all? I'd love to put together a Northern Ireland team for the 2010 Lowell World Cup (where I believe 14 of the squad of 20 have to be from Northern Ireland).

I'm just testing the water to see what the response is like, but if there's enough interest I'd be able to get some friendly matches going against other international teams.

I've (just now) set up a facebook page to gather interest - www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=177090075529

Thanks

Yes, there are a few lads from Northern Ireland with the club, but I intend getting them to play for the Irish team next year. We were beaten narrowly by the eventual winners this year, and intend giving it a lash again next year, so you won't be poaching anyone I need.

Aww now Donal. Surely you have a bigger pool of players to choose from than myself? ;D

Well any that don't make the Ireland team are more than welcome on the Northern Ireland team. Just putting it out there 8-)

there's a few lads from Donegal we could do with being rid of...

I'm confused. How can anyone born in the UK with parents and grandparents from the UK play for Ireland ?

[Yawn]

Yawn. Instead of trying to stir shit try using Google or something when you are confused.

[still confused]

Hold on. I thought Northern Ireland was owned by the uk. Surely then, that those from the north are more entitled to be playing for england and stuff, rather than Ireland, of which they are no part of?
