Happy days - Worthing, Bognor and Eastbourne aren't that far from London, so I'll be heading down for those for a nosey.

Worthing's ground is quite nice, and had has a good-sized modern stand in it.

Better be a decent City contingent in the squad now....

No, its for pro's and semi pro's.

England select from top Conference players and Wales from LOW.

Scotland choose Highlands league while ROI use EL Under 21's. In forst year they didn't with Vinny Arkins, Paul Osam, Tony Gorman, Jason byrne and others hammering England in Kettering Towns ground. Sweet night that was!!!!!

Do you mean U 21's as in players that would be reserves playing in the U 21 league? Or the likes of Quigley, Dicker and Ward playing senior competitive football?

Since 2003, the second year of the event the FAI have selected players from the U21 league so Dicker, Ward etc would not be included . The reasoning being we are in Summer Football.....................................and the top players are needed by their respective clus
