Dunne unavailable due to 'sugar-puffed' achilles tendon

Last updated : 11 June 2003 By Dave Mervyn
Richard Dunne, whose arse is sure to warrant extra support on the Irish bench tonight, has left manager Brian Kerr short of defensive cover.
With Andy 'Gonzo' O'Brien out due to re-construction of his nose, there seems to be something wrong with each centre-back we currently have - Ken Cunningham is losing his hair, Gary Breen is de-tached from West Ham (yet still safe as a house...we hope!), Gary Doherty (or 'Dogherty' in Georgian) fancies himself as a striker, Dunne's rear has taken on the social importance of J'Lo's derriere and will soon be appearing in Leaving Cert papers and John O'Shea, well, he plays for United.
