Nephew of Gary Kelly, Ian Harte became a regular member of the Eire
squad, playing at left-back, while Uncle Gary was temporarily out. At
Leeds, it was the other way round for a while. Harte was in the
starting line-up under Howard Wilkinson, but in George Graham's first
season he had to content himself with a place on the bench.
In the 98-99 season, he once again became a regular starter and
although a few doubts remained over his positional and tactical nous,
he played well and scored an excellent free kick against
Southampton.
He became first-choice left-back - and is also the man for dead ball
situations - taking free-kicks, penalties and corners. He has an excellent
left foot but is reputed to be less strong on his right (but every time
someone says this he proceeds to produce a 25-yard right foot screamer).
He was dropped by DOL for a month or so in 2000-01, but the need to
play Dom Matteo - the only other left-sided defender - at centreback
meant that Harte came back into the side, where he continued to
score some hugely valuable goals from dead ball situations.
In 2001-02, his contributions from free kicks - and open play
continued, but his defensive play still looked suspect. Whenever we
played in Europe, it was clear that the message had got across to the
continent: run at the left back. He was finally dropped for the Boxing
Day visit to Bolton - but injuries to Dom Matteo and other defenders
saw him back straight away - but his form didn't improve. This reached
its nadir at Cardiff in the FA Cup 3rd Round game, where he found
himself outpaced and outplayed by Division 2 players and was benched
for the next match.
He was a regular starter in Ireland's World Cup squad in 2002 - but
was frequently substituted, was shown up for pace by the Saudi Arabian
players and had a dreadful penalty miss against Germany. Still, he was
retained by both Terry Venables and Mick McCarthy in the left back
slot as the 2002-03 season kicked off.
He was scapegoated by a few Leeds fans for goals conceded in
2001-02 and 2002-03 and his confidence appeared to have totally
evaporated and he looked set to be sidelined by the arrival of Teddy
Lucic and Dom Matteo being released from centreback duties by the
return to fitness of Lucas Radebe. But still more defensive injuries
and the sale of Ferdinand and Woodgate gave him the chance to restore
his reputation and play a more straightforward game. The arrival of
Raul Bravo on loan indicated that Terry Venables was still not totally
happy with the left back slot - but Ian took his chance to win back
his starting place and convinced the manager and fans that he was the
man we needed in that slot.
Under Peter Reid, Harte was restored to the side as the regular
left-back but continued poor form defensively and increasingly wayward
set-piece kicks saw him dropped to the bench and then to the reserves
with Salomon Olembe playing out of position at left back but
acquitting himself admirably. During Eddie Gray's caretaker period,
Harte was given another chance and was part of the side that snatched
a win at Charlton. He held on to the left-back slot through the
remainder of the 2003-04 season, but with nearly 300 appearances under
his belt he was sold as part of the Everything Must Go To Keep The
Club Afloat sale in summer 2004, winding up at newly-promoted Levante
in the Spanish Primera Liga.
Marianne says: hey, I'm from the Netherlands...and I see Ian play
in the game Valencia - Leeds United. I find that Ian is a great
player...a matter of fact he's very handsome too....I like the way he
plays and I hope to see Leeds in Holland sometime..
Dierdre says: Hi. I saw him playing with Ireland + thought he was
so sexy. I have pictures of him on my wall. He is my fav player of
Leeds+Ireland. If you see this Ian I am your number 1 fan. I LOVE YOU
and why did you have to get married? I think his free kicks are class
+ so is your hair
cat says: he's a brill player.
zoe n kelli say: Ian Harte is soooooo sexy!!!!!
Sanna says: Ian Harte is a great player and he is so
cute!!!!!!!!!!!
Sema says: He is very handsome so sexy I love you Ian Harte!
Keri n Lou say: Ian is a great player and a very nice guy. Me and
my mate Louise were in a pub last Saturday and Ian was there with
Harry Kewell and a few other people and they came over and started
chatting. By the way girls Ian is even better looking in real life
than he is on TV.
Axinia says: I think Leeds will always need a player like him. Good
luck! In fact in Bulgaria where I'm from there are many fans of
Leeds.
Ainsley Okoro says: Great left peg. Shame he can't defend to save
his life, though...
Sergei says: He is a great player!!!
C***t says: He is the best player and he is very CUTE too. I ---
LOVE --- YOU --- Harte.
Samantha says: Ian Harte is the fittest and most sexiest person and
Leeds are lucky to have such a gorgeous player like him. Hope to see
him play soon. I LOVE IAN HARTE 4EVA.
Toby says: Ian is probably one of the most improved players at
Leeds United and seems to have made the left-back spot one his own.
He caught the eye on a regular basis last season and is now looking
the typical modern full back: good in defence, exciting going forward
and possessing a lethal shot.
Helly says: Ian Harte is a babe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! n we luv him 2
pieces.
Maria Jose says: Ian is a very handsome and sexy. I like the way he
plays and I love you. I wish you the best in this life.
Emma says: Ian Harte is a footballer and that is what you should
appreciate him for, not for looks. He is one of the best free kick
takers we have so don't just like him for looks - appreciate his
contribution to Leeds and Eire just as much. I am a big leeds fan and
if England don't win the World Cup I hope Eire do. I'm 13 female and
from Leeds and yes i have met all the players.
Russ Sampson says: Ian you are The Premiership's BEST free kick
taker much better than David Beckham. If you see this keep going I
know you are good enough to play anywhere in the world. Ian you are
the BEST!!!
Jo + Helen say: Ian Harte is soooooooooooo fit!!!!!! Get your fit
off.
Kate says: Ian is the best player on the team, we couldn't ask for
better free kicks from the football genius. A truly amazing, talented
player (and very sexy too)!
Nikki says: Ian Harte is soooooooo fit LEEDS are lucky to have such
a talented player. Keep up the good work and take LEEDS to the
top. He's the best free kick taker ever.
Jan van der Vyver says: I'm not being funny, but if there's a worse
left-back in the Premiership I'm a Dutchman... Oops, sorry, I am...
Anyway, Harte has no pace, no positional sense, can't head and can't
tackle. You lot may choose to turn a blind eye to that, but 19 other
Premiership managers haven't...
Turk says: His shoots are very well.
Gillian Cuthbert says: I think Ian Harte is sooo sexy AND talented
and those who say otherwise obviously need your eyes tested!
Sean says: Ian Harte to me is the most improved player in the Leeds
squad. He has the most deadly free kick I've seen. He makes us Irish
and Leeds fans proud.
Deirdre says: to that Jan van der Vyver you weren't laughing when
he was in the Ireland squad when they beat holland 1:0 HA HA. And he
did very well in keeping hasselbaink out of the box. I'd just like to
say to you IRELAND ARE IN THE WORLD CUP AND HOLLAND AREN'T thanks to
us.
Hazel says: Ian Harte is a very very talented person in Leeds. He
is so cute and sexy too. Just can't imagine how Leeds would be without
him.
Jack says: Ian Ian Hartey you're worth 50 000 000
Faruk says: I am a Turkish boy and I am a fan of Galatasaray. My
favourite player is IAN HARTE. I like him much. Always my nick is IAN
HARTE. I want to have HARTE's t-shirt but I can't find it in Istanbul
can you send me one? If you want to send please mail to me. Sorry my
english isn't well:)
Chantry says: Just out of interest - has anyone met him? I work
down at Elland Road on matchdays, and my first day working down there,
I'd just been trained to do my job, and I came out of a door, and I
almost walked straight into Ian. I started to say sorry, but kinda
stopped in the midst that my "dream guy" had just walked past me. He's
a real nice guy, my bro sorta knew him when he dated a girl he knew.
Although he's my fave-ist player, he isn't very good at tackling, but
he is a class player. I watch Leeds every home match, or at least half
of the game, and enjoy every minute of it!! I'd just love to meet him,
to find out what he's really like. I'm half Irish myself, and just love
the accent!!
Louise from Manc says: Ian Harte is a class player and Leeds will
do well to hold on to him for a very long time.
Laura says: Ian Harte has to be the most talented and sexiest of
all the players in Leeds and Eire. His free kicks are 10 times better
than Beckham and he makes the Irish proud of him. He is soooo sexy.
Loz G says: Ian Harte Ian Harte you are so fine if you werent
married youd b mine. Your free kicks are ace and so is your bum your
better then any player for Scum!!!!!!!!! I LUVE YOU IAN AND LUFC
RULE!!!!!!!!
Martin says: Excellent freekicks. He is very important for Leeds
and hes a goalscorer too, and that's fine. The best defender to the
left in the whole league. Keep him!
Jolie says: Ian Harte is the best freekicker in the Premier
League!! His legs do miracles!! From a Leeds United Fan in Norway.
PLA Leeds United FanClub says: Ian Harte is one of the best
defenders that I ever seen. He has good skills and he has best
freekick. I love him and do not want him to go out from Elland
Road.... love Harte forever
Silas says: Tremendous left peg. But as i say, he's got no pace, he
is no good tackler of the ball and he does silly mistakes. Sorry Ian
but you are the weakest link in the Leeds back-four.
Diana from Romania says: I think Ian is one of the best free-kick
takers in the world. I saw the 3-0 Deportivo game and Ian's free-kick
was just perfect. Definitely made my day. I'm very proud of Ireland's
World Cup qualification and of Ian's performances even if I'm not
Irish. Keep up the great work, mate.
Nic says: Ian Harte is the best player and he is the most sexiest
player in football. I've got pictures of him all ova my bedroom
wall. I LUV IAN HARTE!!!!
Ian Harte says: he is the best lufc player. No Competition!
EC says: Ian Harte played brill @ the Ireland vs U.S.A. match.He is
a seriously class player. He is really cute too just like his uncle
Gary. I wish him really gud luck the Nigeria match.**
Gabrielle says: I think Ian is the best free-kicker in the
premienship,even better than Manure's no.7 (beckham)Although I also do
think he's handsome ......:):):) It's him as a footballer that you
must appreciate.'Cause if you're a girl and watching football, thy'll
think it's because of their looks.I once met him~!
Sarah says: I LOVE Ian Harte to bits,not just cos he's so cute,but

Ingrid, Norway says: I just watched the Ireland-Cameroon game, and
the first thing I noticed was how gr8 Ian Harte was! I`ve never heared
of him before, but he was ace!!! So sad he had 2 go off, he`s a
brilliant footballer!
Tara says: I have to say, I don't even really like soccer all that
much (I am from the USA with Irish roots). I watched the game the
other day and was so impressed by the Irish team (I only watched b/c
it was Ireland). But mostly I have to say I was impressed by Ian
Harte. He was aggressive and seemed to really be everywhere. I can't
wait to see them play again. (and the fact that he's gorgeous doesn't
hurt!)
Valerie says: Hi there everyone, I'm an 18-year old girl from
Belgium who absolutely adores soccer. I'm a big fan of both Ireland's
and England's national teams and I always enjoy watching Ian play. If
any of you are interested, you can e-mail Ian on Harte@icons.com. You
can also read his personal diary and experiences on the field on that
site. Anyway, congrats to the Irish lads on playing a draw against
Germany,actually they deserved to win!! Cheers to y'all!
Christo Kolev says : Ian Harte is the best left player in the
world. He is the best free kick scorer and my favourite player from
all around the world. I love him.(altough I am a boy)

Jeremy says: Great freekicks. He is very important for Leeds and
hes a great goalscorer too!!! i live in canada (victoria,bc) and i
came to watch ian play!!!
Lauren (Ians buddy and biggest fan) says: You call yourselves Leeds
fans!!!After the blakburn game the stick Ian got was totally uncalled
4. Ian is truely loyal to LUFC and would never ever dream of letting
the side down. Sure he made a mistake but that is no reason to go and
hurl abuse at him. I bet it would have been diferent if it woz Kewell
or Dom. And I didn't hear you all shouting at Smithy wen he missed
that penalty. I have known Ian since he played for St Kevins in
Drogheda and we are still good friends and let me tell you after the
blakburn match he came up to me and said is that wot they really think
of me and he was well upset. As I said above you call yourselves Leeds
fans. I think it is now time to stop pin pointing 1 player and to get
behind the team. After all 'we're all in it together'.
James in Drogheda says: Gussy Raey would be proud of you Ian. He
will know exactly what it means....
Ben Linnick says: Ian Harte is the best player I have seen in a
long time he is better than any brazzilian I have ever seen and he
will continue to take the soccer world by storm I idolize him good
luck Ian.
blgoc says: exactlty lauren if u were a true leeds fan u dont boo
players. he was playing really well before that
Carly says: Ian harte what can i say?! hmmm you are the most fitest
and sexist players of all time and i love you!
angela from dublin says: People say David Beckham is the best free
kick taker in England Ian Harte is far better because he is irsh and
also he's better looking
Lauren (again!) says: THANKYOU Blgoc!!!! But I see our messages
still didn't make any difference. A man sat behind me at the Arsenal
match was still shouting obcinities at him. So I turned round and gave
him the biggest mouthfull about not being a true leeds fan. He mumbled
sorry and he didnt shout at all after that. Ian reads this website
daily. He says he likes all the female attention!! And i'm sure he
wouldn't mind me saying this but he says thankyou to all of the people
who stood by him after the Blackburn match etc. It's people like Ben
Linnick and myself and Gary from Drogheda and blogc who are true Leeds
fans. So I put it to you again LEAVE IAN ALONE!!! He is really looking
forwrd to the Liverpool match and he doesnt want a handfull of fans
wrecking his confidence.
Carly says: Well wot can i say!? I LOVE IAN HARTE
Barbara says: Ian Harte is the only talented defender ireland
has. We're proud he is Irish and goodlooking.
Mel says: I think it's terrible fans shouting abuse at their own
players.Just ignore them Ian!
Sarah_leixlip says: I met Ian Harte not so long ago and not only is
he better looking in real life (if dats possible), but he was also
sooooo nice and friendly and not up himself like alot of
footballers. I also say i have to totally agree that your not a real
Leeds fan if you boo one of your own players.Us real Leeds fans would
never dream of doing anything like that!!
meryl says: Ian Harte lives in a village rite by me. I work in the
pub where he lives, and I've seen him a few times at work, and served
him. He's a lot betta lookin in real life!
Kelly Harte says: Hi I dont know much about football, but Ian's my
cousin and its nice to see so many people like him(awwww bless)
Mel says: I have to disagree about Ian being the best defender
ireland has, as much as I like him he makes too many mistakes. He
should be moved to midfield. Besides all that his cross against Man U
was world class and his free kicks are top!
clareXXXXXX says: well wats da craic i think ians da man hes deadly
player and da nicest on da leeds team and da irish and hes pure
fine!!!!! im from ireland {monaghan} and love leeds and ireland!!!!!
im saving real hard 2, get over and c a match!! c ya all soon

insane. I know this because she is my friend and is sat beside me She

McPilt says: I like Ian Harte verry verry much , Im just 12 years

Stevo32 says: hey! ian, why don't you play against spurs?? i was

roy keane, should he come back??
Lauren says: Please ignore the Chris comment. I DO konw Ian and the
only Chris I know is the one my sister is married too. Mind you i

Katie says: omg!! i love you ian
sarah_kildare says: I cant believe u know Ian, Lauren!! u are
soooooo lucky, i never get to see him play because i live over in
ireland and cant afford to go over!!! Please say hi to him for me im
his no.1 fan!!!! i love him to bits.xxxxx
Bridget says: Ahh! Lauren, you can't imagine how much i wanted
to... sadly the distance between me (in brisbane) and melbourne is a
bit further than most journeys in the motherland. Crazy and ironic as
it sounds i think i'll just come to leeds and meet the whole gang at
home! By the way maybe u could pass on to Ian that the recent
performance and on field behaviour of the Irish team has got me going
to germany in 2006 to cheer them on :D
shadi says: Ian is the good player & I love you very very much
Silvia says: Ian Harte is the best now and forever. He is a real
Irishman
Yeejie says: Check on http://iharte.cjb.net for more ian harte
pictures and wallpapers.
lisa says: oh my god how fit is mr harte!!! i watched him all
through the world cup for ireland and thought he was fab. im irish so
are you ian-lets getit on!!!xxx
anwar says: he is nice player of football
Leeds TRUE fan says: For the person hu sed ian got a lot of
stik!!!! Ian is no doubt a lovely lad HOWEVER his current form is not
gud enuff 4 leeds if he wa strue 2 leeds he wudnt chicken owt of every
atacker or winger runnin down the left tahts not harrys job! its ians
n if he dusnt do it proply y shud he get paid n not get stik? we all
want wats best for leeds and unfortunatley sumtimes ian slips up and
its pretty frequent whereas smithy rarely slips up and yea he missed a
penalty why did hartey get teken off cos he were crap b4 u defend him
look at sum leeds tapes i bet u if u see a batch of leeds tapes at
least 4 of the oopositions goals are harteys fault! Granted hes a gr8
free kik taker n a penelty taker but he just cannot get the form! and
thats not wat anyone wants in football when this new spanish lad gets
up here then hartey will have no place! the leeds fans only want wats
best for the club if it were called lets get as many goals against us
as possible harety wud b gr8 hes not strong or solid n he dusnt
communicate whereas DOM dus hes a very gud quality player and hartey
has just not got the flair ne more! if ne of u were true leeds
supporters ud no wat i meen!
Mel says: I agree he isn't performing well. I've only seen him
tackle once this season, and it's about time he scored a free kick.
sarah_leixlip says: we ARE all true leeds supporters but we want to
give support to the players aswell, so next time you question how
committed we are to leeds take a look at yourself and ask if a real
supporter wud constanly have it in for one of thier own players!!!
Laura Cooke says: I totally agree with Lauren's comments. How can
anyone that boo's a player call themselves a fan? Ian Harte is a world
class player and deserves a lot more credit than he gets. If you're
reading this Ian there's always more people supporting you than theres
not. You're truly brilliant and I hope you never forget that whatever
happens you'll always have a band of loyal fans. You shoulg get your
own website like MattHolland. love you loads!
Lauren says: To the TRUE Leeds fan I have been a Leeds fan since
the day I first arrived on this Earth so don't u cum to me and accuse
me of not being a true fan just because I don't agree wiv u. Sure Ian
can sometimes lose concentration but you dont need to giv him
stik. ALL players mek mistakes and you cant deny it but you are all to
busy arse licking Smithy and praising him up to notice his mistakes. I
have watched tapes Lots and lots of tapes (probably becuase I have
taped EVERY match over the past three seasons) adn yes I do agree that
SOME of the goals are because of Ians mistakes but if I recall last
season at home to the Scousers then Liverpools 2nd goal was due to H
lacking in concentration.Also tell me y venables persists on playing
Kelly down the left flank wen he is not a left footer. So because of
this Kelly has to stop and move around the ball so he can cross on his
right. This now means that he is not sheilding the ball hence the
opportunity for the opposition to get the ball. (No offence to Kells
coz he is a gr8 bloke) Dom is good but he has grown accustomed to
playing in the centre. Finally as I sed in my other messages you cant
pin point one person if the team plays bad They are all in the same
boat and have all got to do the same job.So if you can all get your
head out of Smithys backside then you will all realise this. Ian is a
part of LUFC so get used to it. In my opinion the teaam doesnt want
fans who giv individuals stik they want people who appreciate them as
a WHOLE. GEDDIT?!
Lauren says: Thanks Laura Cooke. U r wot I call a true Leeds
fan.
Emma(HARTE) says: i think that ian harte is the sexiest player of
all time.come on if you think hes ugly you need a pair of
glasses.watching him run on the pitch shaking his ass is the
bomb.guess what girls hes ONLY MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
grainne says: just wonderin if its true that Ian's wife is pregnant
Neil "i hate V-Bomber Viduka" Wood says: Raw power - yep i love him
as well. the goal against pool was stunning - wombles - amazing -
also scored on his debut against the scum which can't be bad.
Aleshia says: Well to all you 'fans' of ian harte,im sorry to tell
you but im from Drogheda (where he came from) and now that hes all
rich and famous, he forgot where he came from and thinks that hes a
cut above everyone else, unlike his uncle gary (who everyone in
drogheda LOVES to bits) He has no respect for us and frankly we have
no respect for him now! Yeah hes good looking but theres no
personallity there at all. I met him and asked him for an autograph
(when i did like him) but he just walked right by me as if i wasnt
there! Hes SOO ignorint!
sarah says: i love ian sooooo much. 1 more thing was that really
his wife talking up there?? hi al, hi sinead f!!
Anna says: i think ian's friend lauren is so right, i hate when
people put ian down, put yourselves in his shoes, did anyone even
think how he would feel, that poor finer had 2 put up with all the
crap from so called 'leeds fans', yeah my ass. that's all i have 2
say!!
Emily says: is ian's wife due this month? (january)
Sarah says: i totally agree with lauren, what the hell is that
'true leeds fan' goin on about. ur hardly a true leeds fan if that how
u r goin to treat its players.i think u should stop blaming 1 person
and think about the rest of the team 4 once. as soon as a goal is
scored it automoticly becomes ian harte's fault. u r so narrow
minded!
Ian Harte says: Hi Ian Harte here. I just wanted to thank you for
all your support. It really does mean alot to me. One thing that i did
want to say was that unlike one of the postings say i'd never forget
whereb i came from.I love Drogheda. Anyway thank you all so much and
i'll post again soon, Best Wishes.Ian.
Rachel says: I'd just like to say to Aleshia that im from drogheda
too and thats SUCH a lie!! i met him on the street one day and he was
a lovely lad and he was really friendly and id just like to say to ian
that nobody else thinks of you like she does. everyone loves you to
bits here and thinks the world of you. your amazing and we love you

Christine says: OH MY GOD!!! i donno what that girl aleshia is
going on about!! to be honest, ive never met ian but i know loads of
his realtions and theyre a lovely family, every single one of them. i
kinda know the the captain of ians football team in his old school and
i know that he thinks VERY highly of ian and that hes sound. i think
that its a disgrace that someone would say that about you when
everyone knows that thats SO not true. well, everyone else in drogheda
loves you ian, dont mind her!! please dont think that other people
think that of you ian, we all love you to bits and think the world of
you. keep up the good work and were always proud to say that your from
drogheda. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (",)
ally says: who is that bitch who was putting sexy ian down? i think
he's really fine, and ur on ur own with ur STUPID comment. u bitch!!!
Samantha says: HI YA!!! just wanna say that you are wonderfull

down but you just have to remember that you play for your country and

see their idol and they wanna be you SO much. your amazing, your
SOOOOO fine, you have a beautiful wife and a baby coming, you do have
a good personallity. all you have to remember is that you are a
legend. you are 'ian harte' and we'll ALWAYS love you no matter what
happens
Lauren says: Hey id just like to say tat Samanthas message almost
brought me to tears. It's great to see people supporting him!And to
add to Aleishas comments Ian is NOT like that at all n I shud no. If
he is as arrogant as u say he is ven y on earth wud he spend three
hours signing autographs whilst out shopping?!
Sarah says: what is dat aleshia one talkin about? i never met ian
but i'd LOVE to! he seens really sweet and kind. did u ever think dat
maybe he DIDN'T SEE U? get over it, at least u met him. go on ian
don't listen 2 her, i think ur brill and such a BABE and loads a
people think so. gud luck on monday. xxxxxxx!!
Sarah says: Hey every 1 I'm soo happy that soo many people have
stood up for Drogheda n shown that we feel very proud 2 have a
footballer so skilled & fine as u Ian. I dunno what da f**k that
b***h was on about. what does she no. I'm glad that it was made clear

Sarah says: well if she has had her baby, is it a boy or a girl?
Kim H says: HI bro. Just to say hi and i miss ya. Im Ians sister,
back here in drogheda. I just want to point out the fact that ian does
love his town, so Aleshia dont go saying things you know nothing
about!(plus you cant spell Ignorant!) I saw Kelly Harte wrote saying
she was his cousin??? Sorry Kelly, never heard of you! We actually
have no other relations with the surname Harte! As for Lauren? You
said you went to HIGH SCHOOL with Ian, HIGH SCHOOL? are you
american....... Ian left school when he was 15 to go to Leeds, so yes
I think your making it up... sorry to burst your bubble, but come into
the real world! To everyone who has supported Ian... thanks a
million, i truely hope you will continue to do so.... to those who
havent.... open your eyes! Thanks.
gabrielle says: hey, does anyone know if the baby is a girl or a
boy?? and what they called him/her? congratulations ian. i` m sure
you` ll make a great dad. hey leah, i did meet him once in malta. he
was with gary kelly. he did`nt say much though,he was very

pop is so good looking and would die for him, he is the best free kick
taker we av got so we ad better no get rid of him. i love u soooo much
the real #1 fan says: listen every1, or at least, those of you who
think they 're hartey' s biggest fan. you can get this idea out of
your head coz I AM ian' s biggest fan. my room is full of his
posters. the most common name in my diary is ian harte. i' ve been his
biggest fan since i was 8 years old, now i'm 14. he' s the most
gorgeous man i've ever seen and i love him with all my heart. i
wouldn' t have brought up this subject, but as there were some
postings signed as ian harte' s biggest fan..... .... if you see this
ian, i would like you to know that, whatever you're going through, and
whatever hard times in your football career you' re passing, all your
loyal fans will never let you down. we all love you very much if you
ever leave leeds, i'll go crazy!!! ......sorry if i sound a bit
boring.........hahaha!!! i love you ian. keep it up!
josh seargent says: harte has the most fantastic free kick i have
seen if he played for england they would win the world cup every time
because he is a top quality player and leeds would not be the same
without him so terry do your best to keep him!!!
Laura C says: Hiya Congrats Ian and Laura on the baby. Was that
Julieanne above Gary Kelly's wife? Fair Play to Kim for bringing
people back to reality! Ian you're the best!
Lizzie says: This is to the dilusional person who thinks they are
Ians biggest fan. What makes you so special? There are loads of fans
on this website who are much more dedicated to him than you ever will
be so dont go blabbin all your bulls**t.

ian the fans just wanna know and congratulate ye.
Gabrielle says: hey ian, would you please tell us what's going on
at leeds!?! we've sold most of our star players coz of financial
probs, but things seem to have got worse. it's about time leeds win a
big game. but no matter what i'll always be there to support leeds.

drop dead gorgeous and I would say most of us agree.

Yvonne says: Congratulations on the baby. Kaia will have a great
daddy!! Good luck with Leeds!!
Sharon says: is it true that leeds r giving ian harte away on a
free transfer???? Oh yeah, he's not that good looking, Shay Given is

Louisa says: Congrats on the baby & I thought it was so sweet you

Rachael says: Sharon i totally agree that Shay Given is the finest
person EVER but ian is good looking and he is a class player too.luv
ya ian. x X x X x
Sarah says: hiya ian. i think Kaia is a gorgeous name for a little
girl. as alvinia (hey ally) said i can't wait to see you on that pitch
again. don't take any of the criticism u were gettin to heart, coz you
are the finest and you can do it just as good if not better than any
of those players. i also agree with some girls that shay is soooooo
fine, but so are u ian. i wish you, laura and kaia the best of luck in
the future. lots of luv Sarah xxxx
Max says: I'd just like to say Congratulations to Hartey on getting
his first goal in a year. I've been so annoyed at the treatment he
has received from the press and certain sections of the fanbase - of
course he lost his form; if Ronaldo had people telling him he was crap
week in, week out, missed a penalty in the World Cup and found himself
continually on the subs bench, his form would suffer! So for him to
end his goal drought (I gather he even tried a long range shot which
nearly made it 7) is absolutely brilliant. His determination to take
the penalty instead of Viduka was totally vindicated (Mark had already
scored a dozen goals this season, so to deny Hartey his chance would
be selfish; and he did get a hat-trick later on anyway). Let's hope
we see a few more from #3 before the end of the season. Maybe a
free-kick like his last one against the Scum (Mar '02). Well, no
pressure, I'm sure he'll deliver when the time is right. And also
Congratulations on becoming a daddy - that will certainly have
improved his morale (even if he's suffering a bit of sleep
deprivation!!!)
Elizabeth says: Congratulations on the goal yesterday. You are
unbelieveable scoring a goal at the first match you are in since the
birth of your daughter. It just shows she has a positive impact on
your playing. I hope you will be playing at the Ireland against Russia
game because I will be in the front screaming for you.
*Aoife* says: ust wanna say congratulations Ian and Laura! Great
news and I hope Kaia's doing well!
Sarah says: hey ian! u did great on saturday when u scored the
penalty! we all knew u could do it. i hope this helps bring your
confidence back and we are all behind u . love ya!! Sarah xoxoxo
Mel says: Congrats on the baby!!!!!!!!! That was a great penalty!
good to see you scoring again!!
Carol says: Hey Ian and Laura, Congrats on the birth of
your little baby girl. Bet she's really cute I'd say all the boys will
be fightin over her in a few years time! Don't worry coz your Daddy
will sort all the bad guys out no problem! As for the rude comments
made by some people here, just ignore them coz Ian we all think u
rock! All the best xxxxx
rachel says: hi all. just wanted 2 say congrats 2 the lucky
parents.xx And Kim i was just wondering how old u were and if u have
any other siblings. and on what date was Kaia born? thanx.
Ian fan says: Just a little message for Ian!! Congrats with Kaia
and congrats with your goal, knew you could do it!! Keep on the good
work!! Bye bye luve!!
Nicky says: Hiya Ian.. congratulations on your goal.. you well
deserved it.. was the best game of the season for you.. keep going
like this... Love Nicky
gaby says: does anyone know why ian pulled out of the ireland
squad??? if yes pls tell me! tnx.
Kim H says: Hi bro, just saying hi! looking forward to seeing you
all.... love you millions. Kim x
Nicky says: Gaby, Ian pulled out because of domestic reasons, the
birth of Kaia!!
Elizabeth says: Who said Ian pulled out of the Ireland squad coz I
heard he just skipped the Albania and Goergia game to look after
Kaia. Kim, if you know the truth can you please let us know.
anne-marie says: i think ian harte is the greatest i never miss any
of games that he plays. I have loads of poster of him and think he
looks dead fit in the leeds kit!!!!!!!!
Flo says: congratulations on the birth of Kaia!! And you are the
greatest player!!
Nicky says: Common Ian show us a similar performance as you showed
us against Charlton some weeks ago!! You are a brilliant
player... show it!!
Roisin says: Ian Harte is the finest and the best footballer in the
world! Congratulations on the goal against Charlton, it was savage and
it was a great result too! Congrats on baby Kaia, if she looks
anything like you, she'll be sooo cute! Don't mind all the other bad
comments especially the one from Sharon (don't worry i know her, she
used to think you were fine but now her mind is taken over by Shay
Given, who let in 6 goals against Man Utd) Your back playing Savage
for Leeds! Welldone :o)
laura d says: hey everyone. i live in a part of louth called
annagassen its right between drogheda and dundalk and everyone through
the county are really proud of ian . i often see people goin around in
leeds number 3 s . he just shows that many great talents can come out
of smallest county in ireland . hartey~1
Sarah *Harte number one fan* says: Hiya..Ian congratulations on
becoming a dad :D I'm sure that you will be great..Kaia is soooooooo
lucky, and to anyone who is posting bad stuff about Ian why bother?
You must like him if you can spend your time on here sending stuff or
just not have a life. The only bad thing I will say about Ian is that
when he is having photos taken near all the players cars he doesn't
smile, but I'm sure that can be fixed. Ah well keep up the good work
;)
Sarah says: hey ian, hard luck on saturday. to answer gaby's
question, ian pulled out of the ireland squad for that game coz his
wife had just had a baby!!
Phillier says: Congrats to Leeds on their two nil win over Fulham
tonight. I dont know if Ian was playing but if he was, he only brought
the team down. Leeds are gonna get religated cos of him clowning
around and mucking up Leeds chances. He is so crap, and did you see
his shit penalty against Spain in the world cup, it was fucking brutal
and he always aims for the same spot , so every premiership goalkeeper
knows which way he will kick the ball.He should quit fotball b4 he
ruins it for everyone.
Loreloi says: Does anyone know any good websites dedicated to Ian?
Sharon says: Roisin (hiya!) Shay given is the finest and i'm gonna
get to see him play against norway on wednesday! it was ians first
goal, nothing great it was only against charlton i mean, no wonder he
scored against Dean Kiely, i can understand him missing in the world
cup cos it was against Iker Casillas and he's a top goalie ( yes
roisin u can believe wat i'm hearing, u were right)even roy keane
would have scored against dean kiely! but to all u leeds fans, u have
to admit Shay is fine!!
Roisin says: Kim, do you know if Ian has an email address? Thanks.
Sarah says: Hey every 1 sorry bout dat i read in da drogheda paper
they called their baby ciara and it's Kaia sorry.... Dat wasn't me
dat called ian a s**t head dat was another sarah!! hey laura d 4m
annagassan i live near u between dunleer and clogher just thought i'd
say hi!! See ya at lansdowne on wednesday i can't wait c ya den
hopefully you'll be over say hi Kaia and Laura, See ya wed, Loads a
love Sarah xxxxxxxxxx
Sarah says: Hartie may have number 3 on his back, but whats a
number?? He's our number 1!!!!!!!!
Nicky says: Ian please get the defence sorted out... and urge your
fellow defenders to do the same... it would work so much better for
Leeds!! Common show us you are a good player.... I will keep
supporting you!! Love Nicky
Sam Senior says: Ian Harte is a god a free kicks but absolutely
s***e at defending, y dont reidy play im at left midfield an play
harry up front.
Sarah says: to philier or whatever weird name u have, what do u
think ur doin commin on ian's website and putting him down like that,
who do u honestly think u are??????you must have a really sad life if
u spend your free time on his website and u don't even like him, you
weirdo! and have you not gotton over the spain penalty yet, GET OVER
IT it was nearly a YEAR AGO. why don't you get a hobby and stop
ruining this fer everyone else. oh and to ian u are sooo lovely and
don't take any notice of those stupid comments. luv ya xxxxx
Jordan says: to Kim Harte: Hi Kim, It was good to see you at the
blackburn game on saturday. Keep smiling sweetie love J
Chloe says: i know that guy (Phillier) was just giving his own
opinion but did he really have to do it on ian's own website!!!! have
a heart will u??
Roisin and Aoife say: Phillier! Will you ever just F**k off,
obviously you don't know what your talkig about cos me and everyone
else think he's savage and he played savage against Fuhlam! And if you
think he's so s**t why are you wasting your time on his website?
Weldone Ian on the match against Norway, ye all played brilliant!
Pitty they took you off but i suppose they have to give other people a
chance! Hey Sharon! Ian Harte is way finer than Shay! I know you'll
kill me on Tues but common admit it, he is finer! Aoife said soooo
much finer! Luv Roisin and Aoife, Talk to you later!
Nicky says: Well done Ian on your goal against Arsenal... you and
Harry and Mark saved the club from relegation.. well done!!!!!!
Carol says: You were brill against Norway the other nite and today
against Arsenal you were even better. Fab goal Ian keep up the good
work! Your biggest fan Love Carol (",) XXX
Elizabeth says: Congrats on the goal Ian it was brilliant. I am a
Man United fan and the rest of my family supports Arsenal. Its great
Man United have won and its even better that Leeds are staying up. I
hope you score more like that in the future and Leeds will definatly
go all the way to the top next season. Love you loads and congrats
again.
Sarah says: hay, congrats on sundays win, u did BRILL, i missed the
goal, but i'm just so happy for ian. you did REALLY well, tell harry
kewell that he is a sexy finer!!!!! luv ya xxxxooooo
Sharon says: Oh my God, Ian actually scored!! Never thought i'd see
the day when he'd score twice in a season!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A. nonimus says: That guy Phillier is my brother. I wont say my
name but I was writing on this website and he deleted what I wrote and
wrote all his own stuff. I am sorry if it offended anyone and I will
tell him what you said. I personally think Ian is the greatest and he
did brilliant against Arsenal. Keep up the good work and dont mind my
brother he doesnt know what hes talking about.
Sharon says: hi Risn, howz u? okay, because of the agreement u and
me have bout ian and shay, i'll just say this, I think Shay is
sooooooooooooooooooooooo much finer. I didnt know who to support the
other day, cos i want arsenal to win cos i hate man utd, and i wanted
arsenal to get the cup, but i didnt want leeds to get relegated cos
there are 3 irish players! Ian, Gary and Stephen! I hope West Ham are
relegated!! hee hee! i know theres an irish player with them but i
think bolton deserve to stay in the premiership, if you ever watch
there games, they try so hard. Loreloi, i dont know any good sites
dedicated to Ian, but i know a few sites dedicated to irish players,
if your interested? shay given, niall quinn and kevin kilbane and
robbie keane
Mel says: Your goal was brill Ian!!!!! And it couldn't have come
at a better time!
kelly says: ian harte, alan smith and harry kewell are all
babes!!!!! kelly-louise LUTON

Aresanl supporters
Nicky says: Again.. congratulations on your goal.. just as you seem
in striking force the season ends.. ah well... there's a next season
IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE...!!
gaby says: hey ian! it's gr8 to see ya score finally. you deserved
it a lot. i think u can score much more free kicks easily. but anyway,
i don't think there would have been a better way 4 u to finish this
difficult seoson! keep it up u're the best and we luv ya!
Kelly-Louise says: i didnt know ian was married, but you are still fyne and
you are a wicked player. im a leeds fan and im half irish so i watch
you play all the time, keep up the hard work and dont stop showing of
them gorgeous legs of yours
kayleigh says: ian harte is the fittest player in the prem by
far!!!!!!!!!!!
Sharon says: time, and i think they deserved to win, cos they
played better football!! yeah, i know man utd played good too but if u
were at the top of the league, u wouldnt like the cup to be taken from
you!!! What am i gonna do?? the premiership is over :( no more Shay
or Robbie or Damien!

BSLC says: Hiya Ian! It must really annoy u dat evry1 seems2 luv u
4 ur luks & not d footie but I'd like2 say dat although I do think
u r d finest guy on earth & not even Colin Farrell is a patch on
u, I really admire ur footie technique 2. Ur free kicks r d deadliest
in Europe & u have scored 13 out of 16 penos 4 Leeds whicd just
proves ur skill & brilliance. Fair enough ur defending woznt d
best early in d season but against Arsenal u proved ur up there with
the best of them.Not many peepl seem 2 realise Ireland wudnt hav
reached the world cup without u but thanx 2 ur 4 stunning goals we
made it. i woz so happy 4 u when u scored after 7 mins against
Villa-wot a way 2 end a miserable (no offence) season. I'm a big Leeds
fan & proud! I woz so happy 2 read about Leeds cumin 2 play in
Dublin in August & if it goes ahead I'll definetly b there! Ian u
r mega fine & r definetely Irelands most underrated
player. despite wot u may think the peepl of Ireland are behind u all
the way& are proud 2 call u 1 of our own. Ian, out of all the
footballers in the world I admire u the most (not just 4 ur luks) but
4 ur skill & determination& most of all the sense of pride u
seem 2 hav in ur club & country. Congrats 2 u & Laura on the
birth of Kaia and Good Luck next season (Leeds 4 da double!) &
hope 2 c u in Dublin. Ian if u choose 2 leave Leeds u'll be sorely
missed by all but hopefully ull be at Elland Road for many seasons to
cum. Loadsa luv B ;)
Jenni says: Ian u've bin on fire these last few games! Ur a gr8
player + ne1 who sez otherwise dusnt know wot theyre tlkin about
babes. Keep up the gud work 4 nxt season cant wait 2 c more of ur
brill goals. Love ya loads xxxxx
gaby says: hey guys, i wasn`t followin any media lately and i heard
someone at school say kewell has been linked to man u(re)! is it true?
cem says: I am from turkey and my favourite tem is LEEDS in
europe.. Ian harte is my favouite player... nobody can saved his
free-kicks... He is a prof. for this subject..
Sarah says: hey Ian and Laura! hope wee Kaia ia doing wel i'd say

message board and lots of pics!
Sharon says: Thanks Mel, I was on the website, its good!! go to
www.shay-given.com its the official shay site his brother kieran set

loadsa pics on it!
kayleigh flynn says: hi! i no killian brennan who is frm Drougheda,
and he says he is a really nice bloke! theyr mates aparently!! he is
sooo bloody fit! *ian i mean* and should start for us tonight!!
Lee Casewell says: Dear Ian Harte I think you are the best defender
for leeds and also you have skill and passion for the club but your
free kicks can be a better I mean somtimes they go high off target but
altogether you are the best.
Mel says: hey ian! i bet you are glad ireland won even if you
didn't play cos it was a really important result!
Artemis says: Hey I was wondering if any1 had heard a rumour
linking Ian with Parma??!
Kim H says: hey there all, havent been on in a while, Jordan i was
at that Blackburn game, where did u see me? Oh and i also know Killian
Brennan from Drogheda, whoever it was that posted it above! dont
personally know him tho, but know of him. see ya
Nicky says: Hi Artemis, yes I heard the rumour as well, but I think
it was just that - a rumour - don't think he is going anywhere this
season... and I don't hope so either!!
Carol says: Hey! I hope not coz I think he's contract in Elland Rd
is up this year. It might be true but then again u did say it woz just
a rumour. So girls don't worry bout it afterall we do have pics to
swoon over!
Sharon says: Harry Kewell is either going to Liverpool or
arsenal. One of them clubs is taking him for 7 million. and i heard
that real madrid are interested in John O'Shea, anyone heard bout
that??
Louise says: I heard in an interview with Ian that was taken while
Laura was pregnant that he still has three and a half years left on
his contract so I dont think hes going anywhere.
Bridget says: hey sharon, i've been keeping an eye on the kewell
speculation cause not only am i a liverpool fan im also from
australia... the latest as of monday 7th is that "According to the
BBC, Kewell has decided that Anfield is his preferred destination of
choice this summer - despite overtures from the likes of Arsenal,
Chelsea and Barcelona. " but i guess theres still heaps of politicing
to go, nothing's been settled.
Jordan says: FOR THE ATTENTION OF KIM HARTE Hi Kim, I was sat in
the West stand not too far away from you and you family, we knew it
was you because you look like Ian. Like your Burberry Bag too, I have
the same one!! Hope you will go again next season, it's really good
that you all come over and support Ian,he's a lucky man! Take care,
Have a good summer Love J
Sarah_Leixlip says: does anyone know wot ian said in his interview
with the june edition of leeds, leeds, leeds magazine
Megan says: Hello Everyone and Ian....My name is Megan. I am 15 yrs
old and i live in the united states. first off, i wanna start by
saying that ur an excellent player. u have alot of potential, i
think. u are very nice looking!!...u are a great player and i hope
that u have a nice future at Leeds.
Lucia Lewis says: I'm putting Ian in my fantasy football team so
he'd better be at his best and score some goals for me...I think he
will! Oh yeah, and he's totaly gorgeous too.
Laura C says: Just back from the Dublin Tournament. absolutely
deadly! Hartey is such a legend. Shame bout the result after a
brilliant performance. Just wonderin KIM HARTE what was Ian's goal
celebration about today(if u were there) and who does Ian room with on
international duty???? Thanks a mil!
The dutchman says: when whill he leave the club Or is that no
option
Ciara says: Congrats Ian on your free kick against villa. It was
class. Pity about the penalty. Hope to see you getting your 50th cap
for Ireland next Tuesday against Australia. You are a great player
with a lot of potential and you are good looking to match, what more
could a girl ask for. Good luck with the new season.
Gaby says: I just wanna wish Ian the best for the coming season!
Good luck to him and all the lads!!
Nicky says: Ian, good luck upcoming season!!! Love Nicky...
Hollie says: I just heard the team to play Australia on the radio
and Ian wasnt included. I cant believe Brian Kerr isnt going to start
him for his 50th cap. Its only a friendly for Gods sake. Poor Ian, he
would've looked so cute playing opposite Harry and Mark and
all....
Niall says: well done to ian for coming off the bench to win the
game for ireland with two goal assists.what a ball to set up morrison
for the second!
Mel says: Ian played well da uvr day for ireland well done!
Kim H says: Hey guys, its been a while. JORDAn yes it was me at the
game.. mad...i will be over again this season, so maybe you'll see me
again. Laura C.. i never made it to Ians game so didnt see the
celebration, i had to work sorry! To Ian, have a great season, love
you x x x ur lil' sis Kim x
Barry says: Where is Ian Harte, no premiership appearances this
season,!!!!!!!!! Why? My fantasy team needs him! Any ideas?
Sharon says: Kevin Kilbane said that Ian was a world class player
and he doesnt know why Peter Reid wont start him, and Alan Smith said
that its really bad at Leeds cos they all fear for their careers cos
any of them could be sold at really short notice. but at least that
will stop by Monday cos tomorrow is the final day for selling and
buying players. Oh yeah, Harry Kewell scored his first goal for
Liverpool today!! Yay!!!
Laura says: i will kill peter reid and john mckenzie if ian harte
is allowed to leave the club.
Cecy says: I'm Cecy, I'm from Argentina and I love Ian Harte
because he's very, very, very sexy and he plays VERY GOOD, I think
he's the best Leeds's football player.... Ian I love you!!!
Gaby says: I think there are too many defenders at ellend road at
the moment. that puts more competition and pressure on them. it`s
creative mid-fielders we desperately need right now. hope ian plays
soon. can`t see why peter reid is leaving him out.
Mel says: it was well excitin wen ian got a free kick against
russia da uvr day den carsley took it 4 sum bizarre reason! Den Matty
got in da way of anuva! Y didnt they jus let ian take it! Ian played
so well against russia hes definitely gettin his old form back! Yay!
Owen says: Hiya all, - Can anyone PLEASE tell me where Killian
Brennan is now playing his football after his release from
Peterborough United????? Posted 15/09/03'
Clodagh __ Limerick says: Love Ian Harte. I personaly think dat da
critisism ian is getting is very unfair.Leave him alone!!!!We're proud
2say dat your Irish Ian.i think you and your uncle Gary Kelly are both
lovely people.luv ya!!!!
John Harte says: HI, Does Ian have a website? I'm currently tracing
my family tree. My family originate from limerick.
Michelle says: Alan Smith Is the most fittest footie player in the
universe and any1 who thinks he aint is absolutley CRAZY!
no1fan of hartey4ev@ says: ian harte has made such a contribution
to the leeds team over the last 6 year swhen he has been playing.ive
had a season ticket for leeds for the past 4 seasons and im only 11, i
love watching hartey play !He was booed off the pitch at blackburn
last year at half time when he got substituted,i was there and i
thought it was absoloutly ridiculous.true fans wouldnt do that.
Lars Kamperman Leferink says: Hello!! I'm from Holland. From
Deventer. English is very difucult for me. I hope so you can
understeand me. I'm a big fan of Leeds. My favorite player is Ian
Harte. His free kicks are beautifull. And de mental from him is very
good. I love his football. Leeds united: Simpley the best!!!
Sarah *Harte number one fan* says: Hiya! Ian where have you been?!?
Leeds is lonely without you....have a word with Peter and tell him to
get you back on the pitch! what ever people/magasines/newspapers etc
etc, are saying to you IGNORE it you know we all love you. P.s Hope
Kaia and Laura are doing well
Mel says: Its about time Ian Harte got back in the team! Things
arent going well, so why doesnt reidy try & change things around a
little, Ian's a really good passer & free kick expert he could
come in handy. Go on reidy!!!
Andrea xx says: Hello Im Andrea from Mexico n I just love
Irelamd....my fav team of course is leeds United ITS THA BEST!!!!

Sharon says: What tattoo's do Ian and Gary have?? i think robbie
keanes one of the cross on his arm is horrible!!!
Jenny Frost says: Hi Nicky, do you know of anywhere I could see a
picture of Ian's Tattoo?
Nicky says: Hi Jenny, I have one or two pictures of the tattoo, but
dunno where I got them from! Suppose you need to search really
hard.. if you want I can send them to you as well, but you need to
give me your e-mail address for that! xx Nicky (jabba says: I'll pass
it on)
Sheridan says: Owen: Killian Brennan just signed for Dublin City FC
(eircom League Division One champions)
charlotte says: hiya guys,just wanna say i dnt actually support
leeds i support southampton but if i didnt leeds would be my team jsut
the fact ian harte plays for them ..u r so gorguz its hard to beleive
ur real i wish u wud cum play for saints..and ur wife is the lukiest
women ever she is def on a par with mrs bekham keep it up sexi ian ur
mazin and i love yaxxxxxx
Loz says: Ian Harte is a pivitol cog in the leeds united set-up.
he'd give up his wages for the cause. a true pro. not sure about the
penalty he conceeded in the sun's comic strip though
rosie says: ian harte is so fine
Tom James says: he is the best left back in the world its pretty
obvious!!!!
john davies says: i once met him at a pub in ireland his car had
just broke down and me and the lads pushed it into the river as a joke
he took well like a true champ
john davies says: i can remember once when he was running up my
street and went head first into a lampost he was rushed to hospital
and had to take a 2 month break from football
Kim H says: What are you on about John Davies? where you making
them stories up from?
Celine Munnelly says: Ian Harte is absolutely FINE love him 2
pieces ........is he really married????
Mary says: Kim r u serious dat ur man is makin dis up? Wat a
SPA!
J says: How are you? Ahen are you next over in Leeds?
Anne-Marie says: I am your number one fan and i love you to
bits
anna joyce*** says: Ian Harte is such a cutie and I think everyone
should cut him some slack and let him build his confidence and become
as good as he was. He is such a finer and I'm lucky to be the same
nationality as him. Go Ian
Lorna -Dublin says: Just wanna say Ian Harte is a brilliant player,
and is much appreciated by Irish fans!! He's done us proud.....
Fiona says: Just wanted to say congrats on the goal and the win
against the Czechs. It was a great free kick and lets hope that your
good form has returned.
Mel says: Ian was brill for ireland the other night, his class free
kick and defending showed us what ian is capable of doing every
week.
Anne-Marie says: Did you see his goal last Wednesday against the
Czech Rep? I was at the match and I went mental when he scored
because he is the best footballer in the whole world and I love him. I
forgot to say I have Ian at the back of my Ireland jersey.
Jennie says: HI Ian Just want to ask what do u think of Roy Keane
coning back?
Toni Galea says: Ian Harte is 101% fine n he is a wiked left
bk!!!
Ross says: I think its about time Harte got a decent run in the
team & a chance to find his old form back. Any 1 else noticed how
rarely Leeds score from set-plays when harte is not in the team to
take them??? Domi could easily be switched to left wing to accomodate
Harte in the team.
carlia says: oh laura you had a baby girl like me i bet shes gorge
my friend was talking about leeds the other day and i thought of you
luv carliaxxxx email me with a pic of her id love to c her

to get a operation?
prince chindah says: david isabetter free kick taker than any other
player in the world.there is none like himand idon't think there will
be.
Caoimhe M. says: Ian Harte is so gorge and incredibly talented and
has the sexiest body in football!!!!!!! I love him to bits.. im from
ireland!!!
Steph Harte says: Does anyone know how old Kaia is now? (sept '04)
or when she was born?? i really love ian harte as well. i can't
believe he's really gone to Levante. i can't watch him play now!!
Ste says: Absolute joke - and to think at one point we couldve
flogged him for 8 million - what a laugh - he shouldve been a forward
and he'd have been shite at that.
