That was terrible, the Irish should be ashamed. Also, obviously Chelsea fans making hissing noises when playing Spurs means that every English person is an anti-semite.

Said the same multiple times, Lee is very respected in the game and he's done fantastically for us with the tools he was given. Genuinely nice guy as well

I think the problem is, he did a terrible job with some of the last parachute payments we got.

How many of Darnborough’s signings have we actually turned a profit on? Even with the Allam restrictions I think that’s a poor record if you are involved in recruitment.

I think he’s got better but when you think of the likes of Stewart, Mazuch, Toral, Kingsley we wasted an awful lot of money.

Don’t think so…think OLM is a east hull lad like myself whilst Ehab lived in swan land & went to a private school

I moved west and went to Wolfreton and Ehab also went there, but we certainly didn’t sit next to each other, I’m seven years older than him. I knew his sister at school, she was in the year below me and was a very popular girl.

I don’t know where that story about Ehab and Darborough came from, they didn’t know each other until he came to work at City.

Not defending them, but it was relayed by a disgruntled Scot groundsperson who was outside the dressing room after their defeat. Secondly, it was condemned outright by the public and the media in ROI, some saying it completely deflated their enjoyment of the victory and heading to World Cup. It was a major topic over there for the following week, the vast vast majority considering it shameful. It was wrong, the team apologized. None of them were even born when that shower of militants were doing their terrible stuff. Just putting a more balanced viewpoint on here...it was wrong, it was not meant for outside consumption and the gravity of their singing was not even aware by them. That is my take from reading about it and I sure ain't trying to be an apologist.

I don't think it was relayed by a 'disgruntled Scot groundperson and even if it was,does that make it any different'? There was actual footage from the dressing room all over the online Daily's...

Incidentally,it's still available for viewing.

There’s also a difference between the IRA that existed during the war of independence of 1919-21 and the Provos in Northern Ireland, a nuance that many aren’t aware of, including edgy youths.

Ehab was in my daughter's year at Wolfreton, not disliked but very average ability wise she remembers.
 
Tetteh is off to Metz, is Mikautadze the other way too much to ask? We were interested last year and could be the player who now wants to join?
 
Ryan Woods was a notable omission from the squad today. Injured or is he going, like Tetteh?
