Ireland U18s win in Malta

[Dodge]

Only know because of the two Pats lads playing. People at Pats rate Noel Haverty very very highly (way higher than us...) and he must be good if they mad ehim captain.

Well I'm sure Haverty would have to be good in order to be more highly rated than you, by the people at Pats?

[Dodge]

tut tut tut. meaning the people at Pats think he'll end up playing football at a higher level than the eircom League

Well Jaime Duff(Damiens brother) was on that team I wonder why?because its not for his football skills.

Couldn't find a generic U18 squad, so regurgitated an older one.

I bet that Eoghan Morgan bloke defects to England.

There's plenty footage on Ronan Hale FB from the Birmimgham City TV facility of his goals so far there and there are plenty of Ronan Hale goals to be fair. I think he ended up with 27 from about 20apps there or something really encouraging, basically anyway.

Nice. We don't get many cricket gags in here

[Wangball]

Hale came to us from NI, his brother Rory is playing well in the Villa youth team and am sure he'll be with us in no time. Ronan seems to be quite the prospect, full of goals!

You're very right. On Rory's twitter page he describes himself as 'Irish professional footballer': https://twitter.com/roryh96

When his brother is called up to the Ireland squad he tweets "The movement is real..": https://twitter.com/Roryh96/status/728271499652681728

I think he might be a Celtic fan too.

[Olé Olé]

He also has tweets with support for Hibs. Still awaiting to see if he mentions anything about Conor Sammon's move to Hearts before concluding on that one.
