Trap names 26-man squad
Giovanni Trapattoni has named a 26-man squad for the Republic of Ireland's forthcoming World Cup qualifiers.
Stephen Ireland's international exile looks set to continue after the player said he was "happy" with his current situation and the Republic of Ireland manager today said: "My feeling is Stephen Ireland will not return.
"The squad will be cut to 23 players before the Bulgaria game."
"So far in this group, Bulgaria have drawn all of their three World Cup qualifying matches. I have no doubt they will be invigorated by the appointment of their new manager, Stanimir Stoilov, and they will come to Croke Park looking for a win to kick-start their World Cup qualifying campaign.
"Bulgaria have a strong tradition of football in their country with many well known players in their squad so we are under no illusion as to the task that awaits us on March 28.
"This game represents a real opportunity to open a significant gap at the top of the table in Group 8.
"For the next six months we will be playing away so strong support in this last home game until October will be vital. Every point gained will be valuable in the race to qualify for South Africa."
The Boys in Green take on Bulgaria later this month and travel to meet Italy in Bari on April 1.
Ireland squad:
Goalkeepers: Given, Kiely, Westwood,
Defenders: Bruce, Delaney, O'Shea, Foley, McShane, Dunne, Kelly, Finnan, Kilbane, O'Dea.
Midfielders: McGeady, Duff, Gibson, Whealen, Andrews, Miller, Stephen Hunt, Keogh.
Forwards: Folan, Doyle, Keane, Long, Noel Hunt
