Ireland - City til he dies?

[Anonymous]

A great signing for Donny if it happens , Ireland is still only 26 , and is a good player .... sad to think he's fallen to Championship level though , he had the talent to have been so much more.

Actually he didn't or he would have.

Self evident really.

Well he joined a club who have struggled since his arrival , but he was still their player of the year in 2012 , and in between he went out on loan to Newcastle , who again were struggling ...... he has also had some bad luck with injuries ....... i still believe that he is a good player ,and if he has signed for Doncaster it is a 'coup' for them ... there will be few better footballers in the Championship than Stephen Ireland.

I'm sure he is a United fan.

You've got to presume it's too late for him to turn it around but I'd be very pleased if he did.

About an hour ago on the transfer forum I said it wasn't definite that the Arsenal rumour about Stephen was true, however I can now confirm that it is and i'll also throw into the ring that Liverpool have also enquired (that much I knew 2 weeks ago) and will outbid Arsenal if it went to a bidding war.

Stephen is obviously flattered that two big clubs are interested in him but reiterates that he wants to stay here for the rest of his career, infact City til I die were the words he used.

What City need to do is get there act together and nail Stephen down to this club for the long term future, give him the contract his performances warrant, we're talking about our player of the season here not a fucking squad player or a kid coming through. He's City for life, he's worked his bollocks off to improve himself and its not gone unnoticed by two of the Premierships biggest clubs so its about fucking time City did something about it.

Over to you Blues....

Well in fairness back then some people thought the fruit loop was the new pele/maradona/ronaldo/god/jesus

Just because his surname is Ireland doesn't necessarily mean he is a rag! If someone was called John Cockney or Billy Surrey or Dave Dorset or Jack Singapore (you see what I'm doing here?) that also doesn't mean they are rags

(although you would be right to be suspicious)

He has admitted he was a rag growing up, and said something a year ago about his support for them.

Yeah, because you were all over the original thread telling the op Ireland wasn't going to make it, weren't you ;-)

He is.

Before the Munich Anniversary derby there was a little section of the pre-match build up on him where he spoke about Cantona and Keane being his idols when he was growing up.

Hahaha!

I remember how much shite this kid caused on these boards! Just glad I stuck to my views that he was carried quite a lot by players we had at the time.

He flattered to deceive as the case has proven.
