Good man Stephen Ireland... (2 Viewers)

[7 - No tomorrow]

It really lays bare one of the indignities of football management, doesn't it?

A man of Trap's achievements and dedication, and he's left to basically begging some 22-year-old child every time the international games come around.

I'd say young Stevie's been called every Italian, German and Swiss curse word there is.

Trap should just phone Daddy Dick up:

"Hello?"
"CAMPIANATO! DI CALCIO! IRLANDO! GOOOOOOOOOOLLLLL ACCIIOOOOOOO!"

That would do it

Fair play, in fairness.

He's such an ugly bastard.

He's such an ugly bastard.

Quiet, we need to get him back on the Stephen Ireland squad!

 

[FiFi_LaRue]

Oh right. Apologies Stephen, didn't mean to question your parentage.

 

[Cormcolash]

It's okay to call him Daddy Dick though and laugh at his cars and shit

 

[FiFi_LaRue]

I mustn't have got the memo.

 

[Cormcolash]

Diddles was meant to drop it through your door?

Stephen Ireland's aul lad is quoted as saying that he (Daddy Dick) is due to meet with the Irish management team, with a view to returning to the Irish squad.

COME ON IRELAND

 

[xrockridgex]

If he rejoins the team will we have to find some way to ensure the title of this thread doesn't sound sarcastic?

 

[ratmonkey]

It's not sarcastic, it's patronising.

 

[binky]

I reckon it's a goer, as long as we rename the team the Republic of Daddy Dick.

It's not sarcastic, it's patronising.

I'll be the judge of that.

Come on, Daddy Dick for The Republic of Pink Lamborghinis!
