What's our squad for this game?

It'll all be revealed when Lord Lucan rides in to town on Shergar dragging McCarthy and Wilson behind him.
Kenny
Steven Reid
O'Brien
Wilson
Harte
Hoolahan
McCarthy

Ou-est le Centre George Pompidou?
We won't have a strong team for this and Scotland will, so I fancy them for this one.
The Scots are handy enough around the middle of the field these days but pickings are still fairly slim at the back and up front. Fletcher at Wolves hasn't made himself available to Levein and they haven't much else apart from Miller. That Adam is a dinger from set pieces though.
Unless they get their fingers out its going to be a dead rubber. We could be inaugural champions of the Carling Nations Cup in 40 mins (Or all but. They would have to win 6-0 to win it)

Jinxed it

So its a straight shoot out on Sunday for the Cup!! Although a draw will do us.
I actually think Sunday might be a decent game. Hopefully some good weather as well and we might get a decent crowd.
Jinxed it is right. I was hoping for the same. I think the Scot's will win it. I think Levein will want to win this. I'm sure Trap and our lads, those who have turned up will as well, but we'll miss out this time.

A Championship: 4 years - 8 first teams - 0 financially ruined. First Division '14: 7 first teams.
Opportunity lost for new clubs/regions to join the LoI family.
Whelan and Fahey or Whelan and Andrews?
We look a bit more stable in the middle since Andrews has returned. I'm more curious to see who will start at LM. These couple of friendlies might be just what we needed before Macedonia.
Houghton reckoned that Trap will start with his first 11 against Scotland.
I assumed Trap was going to use the squad filler last night and then have as close to his first team against the Scots and Mace, before returning to the filler for Italy. That's why he's been so ****ed I'd say.
The problem with yesterdays game is that all of the good performances (Cox, Treacy, Foley, Ward) have a massive asterix beside them because the North were so bad. While Delaney was purposeful and was the more evident of the two centre halfs, I think we were lucky we were playing neighbours and naive footballers. By that I mean the way he went into tackles or how he tried to nick the ball from behind the centre-forward - a continental player will exploit that all day long.
I'd like to see Whelan and Fahey start together on Sunday. We know what we'll get from Glenn and Keith together. I'd also like to see Foley and Cox get another run out. Both are extremely comfortable on the ball.
I still don't know what the squad for Sunday is so if there is an obvious error, apologies. I'd like to see this:
Given
Foley
St Ledger
Delaney
Ward
Coleman
Fahey
Whelan
Treacy
Keane
Cox
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
I have the same problem. Not sure who we have
Given
Foley
Kelly
Wilson**
Ward
Lawrence
Fahey
Whelan*
Hunt
Keane
Walters*
* Assuming the Stoke lads have arrived now
** I assume he arrived with the other Stoke lads
Would like to see Randolph get on at some stage as well, and I think it would be well worth sending for Daryl Murphy at this stage

Leon Best is fit again so he'd be in ahead of Murphy any day.
Centre mid is tough. Andrews needs the game time but Whelan also needs some time to make sure he's sharp for Macedonia. Fahey and Foley might have to lose out, though perhaps Foley will slot in at right back and Fahey on the left of midfield.
Does anyone have a firm update on where we stand with the troublemakers??
Wilson - Injured or available? Is he here now?
McCarthy - 'Injured'
Walters - Is he available and here now?
Best- Ditto
Wilson (hamstring - allegedly) and Walters (shoulder fracture - "gutted to be missing out") definitely out.
McCarthy presumably out but FAI can invoke the (ambiguous) FIFA rules if they want.
Best - no update. Rumour was that he might be able to shake off his knock.
Is Folan to be added to the "troublemakers" list or had he made contact about his injury?
