From Northern Ireland fans.........................
Shay is a gentleman and a class act, I watched an interview a while back were he criticised N.I born players waiting so long before opting to play for the FAI's team.
Shay stated they should opt for the FAI's team a lot earlier and not give OWC the run around, something the FAI should listen to................
Shay is a top class keeper its a pity he did not play for a top class team challenging for honours................
Obviously the FAI's dismal performance at the Euro's is behind Shays retirement, he obviously realises the team are minnows in world football.....................
So i'm sure all N.I fans will wish our fellow Ulsterman well in his international retirement..........................
Goodluck To Ulsterman Shay..........

Shay will be a big loss to ROI - been an ever present for years and will be hard to replace.
Also he is a good guy - was up in Belfast last summer doing his coaching badges through the IFA. Few of my mates met him in Rain and cutters warf said he was a good guy and talked away to everybody.
