I Never Felt I Would Be Part

I Never Felt I Would Get To The Stage Where I Would To Have To Actively Think About Retiring From International Football As I Always Thought It Would Pass Me By.

I Am Hugely Proud To Have Played For Ireland.

I Became More Confident Within Myself And Matured As A Person And Become A Little Bit More Opinionated - Maybe The Lads Might Say A Little Bit Too Opinionated For Their Liking But That Is Just A Natural Progression For A Player.

I Wouldn't Even Mention Myself In The Same Breath As Someone Like Big Paul.

I Find The Growing Intervention By The Football Authorities In Strictly Footballing Matters A Rather Worrying Trend.
