Great achievement for Greg

I for one am very proud that a player who plays for my great club is playing in a World Cup qualifier

Long may our players keep getting picked for their countries

I remember the buzz when a player got called up for the England C team so to have a player turn out in a World Cup Qualifier is crazy. Well done Greg.

Brilliant for Greg and the club, and a really proud moment for all of us...

...but...

If he impressed, then he's likely to miss our games with Accrington & Bolton and then Oxford in March. Not enough other players will be called up, for games to be postponed.

This is a superb achievement for Greg when you consider his injury problems over the years. An excellent call by our physio team who have played no small part in his come back.

Well done Greg.....one of SR's better and proven signings for me.

Northern Ireland and Iceland both have U21 Euro qualifying in March.

Yes, all of those games are at the end of March.

HOWEVER... there seems to be 3 Jamaica World Cup qualifying games at the end of January and start of February as well... :roll:
