theres no way in a million years i'd start him ahead of ger o'brien...the way his class is continually overlooked and dismissed on this site is astonishing

he is an absolutely superb full back and has been imo our best player this year

*edit just noticed there the first poster in this thread didnt even have him in the squad, unbelievable!!!

havn't seen much of o'brien tbh, but coleman has been very good this season. he's only just turned 19 last month and has already appeared for the under 21's. i think he deserves a start, of course i may be bias, but i honestly think he's been the best this season at right back. :o

I thought OBrien was overage as his date of birth must be wrong where I looked

OBrien is a super full back, and your right one of Rovers players of the season

Coleman is a very good full back also - but not on the same level as OBrien yet

You seem to be a bit of a **** but I actually agree with you on this.

There are 3 games in the space of a year - by that time I'd say half the squad will no longer play in the league.
Why are the games not in the space of 2 or 3 weeks?

Even if they are still in the league they wont be eligible...like Behan who only makes it by 2 days this year

Jeez lads - if the players want to have these games, then what harm ??

For most, if not all, it'll be the highest level of Irish cap they'll ever receive !

Too much moaning. Let's just let those who get selected and want to play enjoy the experience and pick-up a few caps for their collection.

can we pay at the gate?Get to Bray early and buy a programme;). First 50 to buy a programme gets a free ticket to U-23 match.
