Following their relegation, Aston Villa's year ended with another bad record, as midfielder Jack has lost all 16 games he has played for the English club, maybe from from Irelands point of view its just as well he  declared for England Mischief

He handled the whole international thing very badly and was probably badly advised.
His personal carry ons would,nt endear him either.

I cant remember if england capped him in a friendly but i hope so.

I hate to see him do a U turn now citing his love for us and realised he made a mistake straight away.

He can revive his career himself.

I sure some foremites remember Tony Grealish who played for the  Republic in the 80s, he gave his all for the cause.sadly passed away a few years ago when he was just 56.

Genuine whole hearted player.

A whole hearted player who gave his all for us , think he made his debut against Wales in Jacks first game as manager .A proper terrier , chased everything that moved .R.I.P.

Wasn't he in the brighton team that lost to Man Utd in the FA Cup ?  Very consistent player - A good pro as Giles would say

M Robinson was on that Brighton team ,another Englishman who gave his all for us ,he went on to play in Spain .

Robinson was class - in the socks down tony galvin style  - those boys could run a full back !  just looked up wiki and Gary Howlett also played while Gerry Ryan was sub - and Moran and Stapelton on the Utd team

This globalisation thing hasn't been very kind to Irish soccer
