Newcastle striker Daryl Murphy had a disappointing Thursday night in New Jersey.

Newcastle striker Daryl Murphy ruled out of Ireland match with calf injury, completes NUFC trio.

Yet to even get onto the bench in a Championship game for Newcastle, Daryl Murphy has now been sent home with a calf injury.

Daryl Murphy & Ciaran Clark are two of seventeen players called up by Ireland from Championship clubs, making up just over half of the Ireland squad.

Martin O’Neill is a big fan of this summer transfer “It has been a big boost for Daryl Murphy at club level getting a glorious move to Newcastle.”

Rob Elliot has revealed he is still heading off to France this summer and also has every confidence in Rafa Benitez…and the Newcastle squad.

It appears that Rob Elliot would only have been called upon in an emergency, if the likes of Ireland’s Randolph or Forde got injured.

Press Association on Wednesday afternoon confirm Rob Elliot won’t travel to Bosnia but no news as yet about the home leg on Monday.

Roy Keane: “If the players aren’t fit, then of course they stay at their clubs but it is ironic that they all seem to get ruled out for 10-14 days.”

Former Newcastle keeper Shay Given’s injury has led to Rob Elliot been called up to the Republic of Ireland squad for their crucial game v Poland.
