Does anyone have a quick and handy fixture list for the under 21's, and if they do could they post it?

I'm moving to Dublin in a few weeks with three other monaghan lads and I'm hoping to see a few senior games and under 21's games!

The U-21 system is now completely changed. It starts off with 14 groups of 3 teams and each team plays one home and one away match. The winner of each group goes through to the Playoff round. We won 2-0 away to Greece a couple of weeks ago so are favourites to top the group.

We play Belgium next Friday night in Galway. If we win that we'll top the group and get one of the 14 playoff places. For the playoffs, the 14 teams are just randomly drawn together to form 7 matches. They're 2 legged matches and are played on the 7th and 11th October. If we win the playoff we qualify for the finals for the first time and that isn't until next summer.

So there isn't really many fixtures and I don't think any friendlies have been arranged yet.

Ah... Galway would be quite tricky, Do the Under 21's play many games in any Dublin venues - preferably Richmond Park as I live on the South Side.

Maybe if you write them a letter they can switch all the games to your back garden :cool:
