Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  E kii ana a Martin O'Neill e kore e taea tana whakaaro e nga kaiwhakahaere o te Pirimia Pirimia e kore e arotake i ana kaitakaro. I kōrero te kaiwhakahaere o te Reipa o Ireland ki te kaitiaki Aiden McGeady, kāore i tākaro i te meneti kotahi mō Everton i raro i a Roberto Martinez mai i te mutunga o Hānuere. Ko te kaitākaro 28 tau te pakeke e tūmanako ana ki te whai wāhi atu mō te kapa Irish i roto i tā rātou whakataetae whiringa toa Euro ki ngā kaihautū o te Rōpū D, a Poland i Dublin i te pō o te Rātapu. Ko te winger o Everton a Aiden McGeady i tukinotia e tana hoa kapa o Ireland a John O'Shea i te whakangungu i tenei wiki. Ko McGeady, kāore i tākaro mō te Toffees mai i te marama o Hānuere, e tawai ana ki te kaiawhina o Ireland a Roy Keane. Engari ko O'Neill, ko tana kapa tuawha e toru nga tohu i muri i o raatau hoa whawhai, i kii: "Mehemea ka whakawakia e au nga kaitakaro takitahi i te taumata karapu ka whakarongo pea au ki nga korero he. <unk> He mana katoa a Roberto Martinez ki te whiriwhiri i tana tangata e hiahia ana ia. Mēnā e whakaaro ana ia kāore a Aiden i te tākaro pai ki te whiwhi wāhi i roto i tana kapa, kei a ia tonu te whakaaro. He āhuatanga rerekē tātau i konei. I ētahi wā kāore pea i a tātou te kōwhiringa motuhake mō ngā kaitākaro i taua tūranga. <unk> Engari he mea nui a Aiden ki a mātau, ā, ko te huringa o te taiao pea ka whakaara ake i a ia.<unk> He maha ake ngā whāinga a McGeady mō tōna whenua i tēnei tau <unk> e rua <unk> i āna mō ngā Toffees <unk> kotahi. E mea ana te kaiwhakahaere o Ireland, a Martin O'Neill, e kore ia e whakaawetia e ngā whakaaro o ngā kaiako o te Pirimia League mō āna kaitākaro. E ai ki te kaiwhakahaere o mua o Sunderland me Aston Villa he mema nui a McGeady o tana kapa. Ko tana whakataetae toa i Georgia i te marama o Hepetema kua awhina i a Ireland ki te noho ki te whakataetae mo tetahi o nga waahi tohu tohu e rua mo France 2016. I tāpiri atu a O'Neill: "He mea whakamā mai i tēnei taha kāore a Aiden e tākaro ana. He mea nui, tino mīharo, mēnā ka haere mai ngā kaitākaro ki konei i runga i te hīkoi o te tākaro i ngā wiki e rua kua hipa, engari e mōhio tonu ana koe e kore rawa e pēnei. <unk>Ko tāu e kore e hiahia ai ko te haere ki tētahi kēmu me te toru, e whā rānei kāore i te nui o te whutupōro. Engari ki taku whakaaro...
Ka tākaro a Ireland ki a Poland i te whakataetae tohu Euro 2016 i te taiwhanga o Aviva i te Ratapu. E kore a Martin O'Neill e whiriwhiri i tētahi kaitākaro i runga anō i te āhua o te Pirimia. Kāore a Aiden McGeady i puta mō Everton mai i te marama o Hanuere. Engari e kite ana a O'Neill i te winger hei mema nui o tana kapa.
