    Centenary Shield

    Currently on Sky Sports 2. Schoolboys... Ireland playing England. We're winning 1-0 with 36min gone.
    Anyone to watch out for?
    Some of the Sky commentator's placename pronunciations have been classic.

    The right midfielder (14) is Finn Harps player Gary Merritt.

    Anyone from Dra-GEE-da? (Always my favourite one for Brits to pronounce!)

    I was at the game - very entertaining but a very disappointing crowd.

    Great to see the anthems observed impeccably too. Hope that continues for the senior games v NI and England (if it happens).
