The likes of Gamble, Stuey Byrne, O'Neill, Bradley and O'Donovan should definitely be called up.
As far as I know it will be basically an eircom League select.
More to the point, will many eL fans be in attendance?
well im gonna try nd go anyway, but will this not affect the league? as the season will still be on..........
According to our esteemed senior manager Mr.Staunton, Ward and the Derry City lad with the 21s whose name presently and inexplicably escapes me will probably be included and "a few more" player from our league are being looked at. I'm starting to think that there won't be as big an eircom League presence as I'd like...
If memory serves, he said that the squad would be 18 or so guys too old for the U21s but not in the seniors, and a few of the senior squad thrown in (presumably the likes of Alan O'Brien, St Leger...).
I don't think Stephen Kenny would be happy with one of his players playing yet another game. I assume Kevin Deery is the lad in question.
That would be him.Quote:

Foyzer for Ireland!(B):p
Especially 4 days before the Cork game on the last day of the season. We have cover for him anyway, good cover.Quote:

Would say that there will be a mixture of players from the eircom and england with hopefully a eircom league majority would be a travesty otherwise IMO.
Anyone really think there'll be an EL majority?? I think that's crazy talk to be honest. 5 max if we're lucky. Stan hasn't got the desire to bring in those players. It'll be Joe Soap from a League One side ahead of any el players. Maybe Wes will get a look in
Will see what Devlin is all about on this one anyway. Dont go holding you breath now people y'hear !! :eek:
It's a pity Vinnie Arkins hamstring fell off him. He'd be worth a look.
I always enjoyed b internationals, good to see players you've always thought good enough representing their country and being looked at closely by the management.
It's only a cynical ploy by Stan from de Town and his mate Pat Devlin to see which eL players are worth shipping off to England with a nice fat agent's fee.
Stan will only pick eL players that Don Givens or pat Devlin are advising.Quote:
