    They've been signing catholics since Souness bought Mo Johnston in 1989.

    I didn't mention Catholics, I said ROI internationals.

    Be surprised if even 5 have played for them this century and more than 10 ever.

    The bigotry still runs deep up there.

    I don't see much of a difference tbh and Smallbone and Manning are mostly English. I think Martin wouldn't consider it in his purchases.

    Is Manning mostly English? From Galway isn't he?

    I think it does have an impact tbh. Otherwise they'd have more regularly had ROI internationals play for them.

    Norwich selling Josh Sainz to Porto. At least he can't score against us this season.

    Is that a 2 for 1 deal? Josh Sargent and Borja Sainz

    Never heard of the other one. I know Josh always causes us problems though.

    Was second top scorer in the Champ last season playing for Norwich which is pretty impressive given where they finished and that he’s not a striker.

    I did see a YouTube video talking about how last season was weird and maybe a new trend in that the goals scored last season across the league was very low, except for Leeds. The top scorer in the league was Piroe with 19, which is very low for a 46 game season and especially when you consider the points totals of the top teams. Made me feel even better about our strike force for this level
