John O' Shea answers your questions for him

Darragh

Hello all,

Thanks again to everyone who posted a question (or 5) in this thread for John O'Shea. He was in Dublin as part of his deal with Carlsberg to promote the HERE WE GO AGAIN poll which centred on the most emotional moments Irish fans have had supporting the boys in green.

I didn't have very long with John as he was under time pressure but I asked and he answered as many questions as we both could. Some of them are quite interesting answers too.

Thanks again! Let me know what you think, good, bad or indifferent.

That's brilliant Darragh, really great interview

John comes across as such a sound bloke !

JPA

Good stuff.

Xavi6

Really good interview, and the questions chosen were great imo (especially my one!

)

Another success for boards.ie, make sure Darragh that you hurry up with the next big name for us to grill!

chopperbyrne

Much better than the Duff interview.

Leaving out usernames was a good idea.

Roll on the next one.

Nice to see he looks out for Waterford results.

FutureGuy

Brilliant interview. I suggest we get Luis Figo for the next one so we can ask him about that nutmeg

After years of therapy he managed to block it out of his mind, I don't think it's fair to remind him

I know you are probably very busy, but will there be a transcript of this? Sorry to be all old school on you, but youtube etc is blocked at work and i dont get online much in the evenings!

Daysha

Brilliant interview, well done Darragh.

Nice to see my question included too (the about SAF's role in his versatility)

I'm sure you can spare ten and a half minutes in the evening.

One of the things I will be doing in future is also podcasting these things. It's on the list of things to do, but, as you can imagine, it's going to take a while.

Re the transcript, it would take me ages. I'll see what the boss thinks about adding it to the list, but I won't promise anything.

wahey asked three of my questions in a row and although JOS was a bit vague on the first two (only mentioning Wellbeck as impressive youngsters) he has moved up a notch imo for how he answerd the third one about his footballing heroes as a kid by mentioning McGrath followed by Maldini who are also my (defensive) footballing heroes/favs.

He looked much more at ease than Duffer and seems like he could be a bit of a laugh tbh, he even plays FF but hasnt picked himself!

fair play Darragh, there was far more of a flow to this interview too with follow on questions that made it slightly more like a conversation than just a massive list of questions

No problems, it wasn't an actual request as such, just something i was wondering you were planning to do.

Only if you say so.

Did i imagine it, or did Darragh accidentally insult John O'Shea with someone's smart ass two left feet jibe (just after asking him what hand he was)?! Quickly sidestepped with 'two great feet' or something!!:D

I think he did! I thought John might smile but he didn't.

Great interview. Top man O'Shea, always honest, whether on the pitch or off.

Yep, he didn't like it one bit.

A the poor lad (Darragh I mean:D) was nervous so we will have to forgive him.

GLaDOS

Woo, got the first question

Excellent interview, JOS looked a lot more interested than Duff and seemed to actually enjoy some of the questions.

Keep it up Darragh

dannydiamond

Great stuff and thanks Daragh,he seems like a nice bloke.
It was funny when he was talking about the playoffs and said they were two one off games.:pac:

Mikeyt086

He's only 5.5 in Fantasy Football so not picking himself is bizzare!

All his friends have him though so he can sabotage them if necessary
