Title: WCOAP 2011 - Official IRELAND Team Thread
Post by: Chipaccrual on July 15, 2011, 20:36:41 PM
APAT are very pleased to confirm that John Murray will captain the team from Ireland.  John is one of the most experienced and succesful players in APAT, and after leading an Irish team to a medal position in the recent APAT Home Internationals Championship, John will look to impress his captain skills on the world stage.

Yes, time is running out but I believe we still have a short time left before we have to finalise the team.

Before we make any commitments, I want to give Liv a chance to respond to my query regarding her Irish ancestry.

The Irish team is ready and I"ll be announcing it later tonight.

There were several players who I would have loved to have in the team, but there were only a few places and I can"t fit in some of the ones I would like, which is horrible.

Obviously that means that we have a great team.

Details later.

That"s a very good team.

If for some bizarre reason Wales don"t win (not sure how that could happen of course) then I hope Ireland do.

go team ireland.
this means a heads up seat could be up for grabs.
obviously there are a couple of prerequisites in this auction
a) face value money wise
b) UNDYING PUBLIC SUPPORT FOR THE IRISH TEAM
c) turn up at DTD dressed in green and white

only irish-at-heart need apply
