DJ Pulls Out Of Ireland Squad

Last updated : 07 February 2005 By Brian Cartlidge

The Blues midfielder had been named in Northern Ireland manager Lawrie Sanchez's squad for the interntional match against the Canadians at Windsor Park but has had to withdraw with a groin strain he sustained in the weekend game against Manchester Utd.

Blues will still be represented in the international friendly in Belfast as goalkeeper Maik Taylor is included in the Ireland squad.
