If mick mc carthy had of been cuter he would have left Roy join the squad later. Mick wanted to equalise him. He wasn't equal, he was an odd ball captain. But ultimately what was good for Roy was good for us.

Arguably one of the best players not to play in a World Cup, sounded more like a holiday to be fair, one player done his ankle ligaments walking on their training pitch and said ‘If I was running , I’d of broken it’ , he was used to high end preparation for each club game, and this is the World Cup Finals. ‘Do me a favour, ur livin in cuckoo land’ hehe
