Whatever happened with Benni? Is he still here or did he get deported? Is he still playing?
Still in Ireland and still a hoop.
Played for tallaght IT last night.
Won his appeal against deportation, my understanding is he is safe for the moment, but the issue may arise again in the future.
Ok what is the story with ITT?
Are most of the Rovers U-18 team studying there or what??
Thanks, good to hear. If he is any good I'm sure Gareth Farrelly will snap him up soon enough ;) just joking. Fair play anyway glad he's still around.Quote:

So some of these students would be 17 while others could still be 16 therefore making them available for U-18 schoolboy football!Quote:

:rolleyes: ;) :cool:
trust the shels fans to know all about school :cool:
trust the rovers fans to know nothing at all about school ;)
touche!!!
If they were smarter than the average under 18 year old - then what are they doing playing for Rovers - surely they should be out looking for a proper worthwhile job? ;)Quote:

I was just making the point of how young someone could be and still be in College whilst playing U-18 football!
