Interesting to see what happens with Jack Colback this summer. He will still have a season left of his six year Newcastle United contract and he has already accepted there…

Another embarrassing Martin O’Neill episode as he comes out with petulant insult for Alan Shearer.

Martin O’Neill “He is a talented player and that talent would be my concern more than anything else.”

Martin O’Neill mentions Ciaran Clark injury when naming latest Republic of 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.”

Martin O’Neill: “Not great – Rob Elliot has got a serious injury, so it is a real disappointment and dampener on the evening.”

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.”

Martin O’Neill could potentially stop Rob Elliot playing for Newcastle United against Leicester if he doesn’t join up with Ireland.
