Just a reminder of who was involved in the last international break - Rodak (Slovakia), Moore, Vaulks, T. Lawrence (Wales), Arnason (Iceland), Wiseman (Gibraltar), Ajayi (Nigeria), Manning (Rep. Ireland))... and Vuckic (now with Real Zaragoza) is in the current Slovenia squad. Interesting to see how many will be making an appearance this time. Plus we have two CURRENT Millers called up for Jamaica and one for Rep. Ireland U-21.

I'm sorry and I know I shouldn't but every time I see 'Wiseman' and 'International' in the same sentence I have a little laugh to myself!
 
He's got 11 more international caps than David Artell (7 caps, also for Gibraltar). Wiseman has three England U-20 caps from 2005 too - that's probably why we signed him on loan in 2006

Not seen any news about the fitness of Vaulks.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's the end of the current international break. Good results for Nigeria and decent ones for Wales and Slovakia, not so good for some of the others

Mexico 2 Iceland 1 (Friendly)
ARNASON not in the Iceland match squad.

--------------------------------------------------
Here's the first one of this international break...and a new player on the thread!

Malta v N. Ireland (Friendly)
Adam THOMPSON (now at Leyton Orient) starts for N. Ireland
He's just been booked.
HT : 0-1
Subbed 85 mins. No goals or "assists".
FT : 0-3

Possibly more ex-Millers in international action on Tuesday (01/06/21).
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Additional - Ryan Manning has already been named in the Rep. Ireland squad. Kieffer Moore has been named in the Wales squad today, but not Will Vaulks or Tom Lawrence. Florian Jozefzoon has been named in the current Suriname squad.
Semi Ajayi is not in 24-man Nigeria squad for their upcoming friendlies. Haris Vuckic is not in the Slovenia squad.
No information about Rodak or Wiseman yet , but they are likely to be in their international squads.

So... that's N. Ireland, Rep. Ireland, Wales, Iceland, Suriname (plus probably Slovakia and Gibraltar) .
(Plus current Millers in Rep. Ireland, Jamaica and Rep. Ireland U-21 squads)

Adam Thompson - is that an awful long time before appearances for Northern Ireland are am I missing some of his games?
 
No, there really was a big gap!. Like many signings of the current RUFC regime, he had a fairly awful record of injuries. He hardly played for us anyway ... and it could be a sign of how desparate N. Ireland are for players. Sounds like he has done ok for Orient in L1 , although it looks like he only played six games before (guess what?) he got injured again!

France v Wales (Friendly) 2005 k.o.
KIEFFER MOORE is on the subs bench for Wales

Update 1 -Wales have had a player sent off, so Kieffer might not get on the field now.
HT 1-0

Update 2 - 2-0 now
MOORE on as sub for Bale (58 mins)

Update 3 - FT : 3-0. Sounded like Kieffer did ok, considering Wales only had ten men.

Just realised that ex-Miller BLAIR TURGOTT , is in the current Jamaica squad.. Came on in the 88th minute for us in a 3-0 win over Shrewsbury in 2014. He was on a one-month loan, but I think that was his only appearance ! He is now with the Swedish club Ostersunds. Getting the feeling that the Jamaican FA are having difficulties in finding anybody who is willing to play for them now.
