The boy is only 17, it’s embarrassing an adult would make such a comment at a youth game. McGeady and McCarthy got abused because of the nation they played for. It’s not as if someone like Arfield gets booed at every ground because he plays for Canada. Again, This McCann story has nothing to do with Scotland. WGS , him again , continually chose not to select Arfield , so Arfield chose Canada. A bit different ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt that could be debated at great and tedious length, however - "Ireland's Dominion status was terminated with the passage of the Republic of Ireland Act 1948, which came into force on 18 April 1949 and declared that the state was a republic.[47][48] At the time, a declaration of a republic terminated Commonwealth membership." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your great grandparents (all 8 of them??) more than likely emigrated from what became the RoI, similar to one lot of my wife's grandparents. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really boils down to do you think you will pull off a khaki green north face in your middle age. I thought it was the " ultras' " decision !

Lex Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Ben Doak confirmed to Liverpool last night. Next Kenny Dalglish or next Islam Feruz? Great move for the kid anyway, he's done the right thing by getting out of Scottish football as soon as he could. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDoddyKane Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 It will be interesting to see how he does. I wish him well but I think under Ange its the best time in as long as I can remember to be a young player trying to break into the first team. As I think if you are good enough in training Ange will play you no matter what age you are. I think I have read of Liverpool signing up quite a few promising young players from around the leagues. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Go to Liverpool train and play with Champions League winner. Impress at Celtic get a game in the Champions League and get howked by six goals. It's a no brainer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish the lad well and understand why he has gone to Liverpool but the last bit is self loathing pish. A proper season or two in Scottish football is hardly going to hold him or anyone back, ask the likes of Tierney, Robertson,McGinn and Van Dijk.

Yes he left Celtic and believed his own hype and was really badly advised, Doak could turn out exactly the same so for his sake i hope he has better people advising him as Feruz fucked it, silly amounts of talent akin to the Ravel Morrison story.
