Sceala Irish Craic Forum Discussion:     Eligible and decides to play for Ireland. Ciaran Clark.

Great football news for the Republic of Ireland national football team today. We welcome with open arms, all the Irish, born home or abroad who want to play for Ireland. We need more Irish who choose to be here.
Ciaran Clark one of the best prospects in the English premier League, chooses to play for The Republic of Ireland.

Today and tomorrow, the Republic of Ireland have every bit as much chance of success as England do. We are both small nations by comparison to most. Irish fans live in the real world.
The vast majority of Irish fans do not expect actual flesh, as long as 100 % is given by a player we respect that effort, and as a culture we Irish call it that way.
I imagine that Wayne Rooney now wishes he thought a lot more about his eligibility to play for Ireland. He was not impressed with the conduct of the England fans at the last world cup.
Too many of the English fans live in a fantasy football world, holding unrealistic demands and expectations, one of the reasons that has too many England fans prone to turn pathetically aggressive in the gang. The English premier league is top quality, but most of the top players in the EPL are foreign, and it has been that way for over a generation. The EPL and England national football have no automatic or unique relation.
England were successful one single time, a long time ago, back in the 1966 world cup on home soil, even then it was by way of matches with dubious circumstances.
Home nations tend to perform high above their average. Look at South Korea and Japan from the 2002 World Cup. I was there and they were both brilliant, performing way above their usual performances. Korea finished 3rd, only losing 1-0 to finalists Germany. Japan losing 1-0 to semi-finalists Turkey. Turkey were only just beaten 1-0 by winners Brazil.

More Ireland eligible football players based in England should choose Ireland. We have the best fans in the real world to play for. Why would anyone eligible for Ireland, choose England over their own Irish heritage, and Ireland their true home nation.

Aston Villa defender Ciaran Clark, eligible and decide to play for Ireland. Good football news
Aston Villa defender Ciaran Clark has pledged his international future to the Republic of Ireland - to repay his mother and father for the support they have shown in him.

Clark, who played 78 minutes of last Saturday's goalless draw with Chelsea, was born in London and has captained England Under-18s.
But he has decided to commit to playing at senior level for Giovanni Trapattoni's side as an act of faith for the backing he received from his Irish-born mum and dad.

Clark told Press Association Sport: 'Why have I chosen to play for Ireland? For myself and my family.
'My family have done a lot for me over the years, since I was a little boy. I owe them a lot so I've made this decision for them.
'Richard Dunne (Villa and Ireland defender) mentioned it to Ireland and they looked into it and got in contact with me and the club. They gave me time to think about it and about my decision.
'If all the paperwork has gone through by the next game, I'll be in contention so fingers crossed that happens.'
Clark, regarded as one of Villa's brightest prospects, added: 'I was England Under-18 captain but I didn't think I was going anywhere really with that.
'When a young lad gets an opportunity like this, it is hard to turn down.'
No need to explain yourself to us Ciaran. We welcome all the Irish, born home or abroad. We need more Irish who choose to be here and play for Ireland.
