"They are the guidelines. Lamentably I didn't make them. They've changed since I was playing. I believe it's something that should be worked out by the affiliations. Whatever Michael says and I say, we are administrators as of now however we're to some degree transient.
"It merits having a discussion about and Michael specified this to me and we were wanting to take a seat and have a little exchange. So it was a mistake for me to hear that Michael had gone on record and said it.
"This point about a religion thing being raised... what's more, if Michael was really suggesting my chance. I'm sad, it's fairly contorted and just not genuine. The selection of words was the issue.
"I've not taken one player which he has conceded. Not one player. I'm not responsible for everything. The most imperative thing for me is the senior side.
"As far as senior football, he needed to concede a few days ago in the discussion that I've never taken a player from him. I didn't understand until the point that I was finding it that Alex Bruce was the one who'd gone the other way amid my chance."
The Republic have been connected with Belfast-conceived QPR winger Paul Smyth who has effectively invested energy with the Northern Irish side.
Martin O'Neill was awed when he watched him in Title activity as of late yet focused on that he would not affect any approach. He would converse with the player in the event that he came to him, and emphasized that the last call ought to be made by the person.
"On the off chance that the player considers, 'I am content with what Michael has improved the situation me' I would absolutely keep that," he said. "For what reason would I not have any desire to address him (if an approach was produced using Smyth's side)? Yet, I am not envisioning that if that is the situation. Michael has completed a considerable measure of work with him. The player has the decision. I imagine that is essential and something that has been ignored in this. They're not being pressured into doing this.
"I've specified this to the underage mentors. Try not to constrain somebody however they won't be in any case. What's more, they haven't been.
"I surmise that has been the situation. I can't state significantly more. We have lost players ourselves to Britain. They are the guidelines.
