Youre Welsh, youre Scottish, youre Irish, you play for your country.Hes played for Ireland, hasnt he. Thats it. That should be it. Hes on about making a decision hes already made the decision! The minute you pull the green shirt on and run on the pitch, hes made your decision.Once you turn up to play for Ireland and you put the shirt on, youre Irish! You play for Ireland!You cant after three games say, Im going to play for someone else. You have made your decision already, you cant make another decision.Youve committed yourself to Ireland. Once you pull on the shirt and run on the pitch, thats it!
