Conor Powell

Article in the Independent this morning.

"BOHEMIANS defender Conor Powell is in Giovanni Trapattoni's thoughts after the Italian admitted that the Dubliner is in the long-term frame for the problematic left-back position."

Nothing definitive there, but it's pretty positve nonetheless. You'd have to imagine Ward would get the nod ahead of him if Nolan and/or Kilbane couldn't make it.

Good news. He's only young, twenty-two. Can't see him making the squad until he makes the inevitable move to a full time professional club in England.

Good player. Nice to see Trapa taken an interest in the LoI. But some of the morons at Dalymount seem to blame everything on him:rolleyes:

On the bench tonight for Colchester

Started his second game in a row for Colchester today, a 1-1 draw with league winners Brighton. A win would have kept them within a shout of the playoffs but Brighton scored a late equaliser. Ex-LOI players Dave Mooney and Gary Dicker were also playing.
