Why do the FAI always leave these things to the last minute.

how do you know it's being left to the last minute? It just hasn't been announced to the public.
Maybe he's waiting to hear if he's being called up by Trap.
Hows it goin, Andy!!! Hope you get the nod. Maybe leave the guitar at home, eh?Quote:

Stan Collymore is way too old to start training with us. Anyway, he's got 3 caps for England.Quote:

I would like to see as many new faces as possible. Players like Coleman, Duffy, McCarthy, Meyler, Wilson, Cunningham are a must for this squad. Would like to see a few granny rule players too if possible.Quote:

Cunningham
O'Dea
S Quinn
Sheridan
Tracey
Garvin
Wilson
Tabb
Mc Carthy
Meyler
Yeates
Walters
Best
Cox
A Rooney
If possible Darren Ambrose
The majority of the training camp will in my opinion be mostly the squad of players who played in the world cup qualifiers, minus some of the senior players.Quote:

if that was the case (and I don't believe it is) why were Cunningham and McCarthy brought into the squad for the Brazil game?Quote:

Whereas the likes of Garvan, Cox, Treacy, Ward, Quinn etc. won't be included.

I would prefer to see some experimenting, but the fact that you have put Liam Mackey's words in bold from the Cork examiner saying that FAI sources have told him the above doesn't really prove anything.Quote:

I think there's scope for the likes of Coleman, Meyler, Wilson and McCarthy to play their way into the squad on a permanent basis.Quote:

I wouldn't be so sure that he will start the first few games but he has every chance of making a few competitive sub apperances and then playing himself into the starting 11 at the expence of Andrews.Quote:

Coleman, Cunningham, Duffy, Meyler, McCarthy, and Wilson have all made huge progress in the last six months but haven't been in a competitive squad. Even better is the fact that they fill the full back and centre midfield positions where we are weakest.
Whos Paul Green?

Paul Green info: Born in Pontefract West Yorkshire on 10th April 1983 (now 27). Was a trainee at Doncaster Rovers and then made breakthrough to senior team.Now with Derby county.Right sided midfielder.
He's not Irish as such, but he's a good Catholic boy. ;)Quote:

disappointed that seamus coleman didnt make it. should have been included.
He could be involved in the playoffs with Blackpool by then. I presume that's why he wasn't included.Quote:

eh because this would be a great chance to see him in action within an ireland squad and it is really a get together to have a look at some new faces. IMO coleman is better than all 3 anyway, going to be a star.Quote:

We have 5 more experienced right backs and with the exception of McShane probably more talented. We simply don't need him at the current time, it's unfortunate for him that he's playing in a position we're so well covered for. I think if he was a left back he would be in this squad.
Because he might be better than the rest? Its a training squad, there are no limits to the number of players for each position. Even then Foley plays regularly at right midfield and he already knows what the rest can do.Quote:

I don't think so, I just don't think there's any likely use for Coleman in the squad for the foreseeable future. It's not a summer camp where you call up anyone and everyone whos halfway decent just for a bit of craic. Trap's planning his squad for the next campaign, hes looking at newcomers and fringe players who can challenge for a team place and putting them through their paces. He's already going to be trying out a new right back in Foley in this camp as well as giving much needed game time to fringe players Kelly and McShane there. There's no room for another and I don't see a situation in the next two years where we'll have that many injuries at right back where we'd need to use him.
Colemans one for the future but he has a lot to prove at the top level before I think you can reasonably expect him to leapfrog the likes of Kelly, McShane etc.
Why did he call Greg Cunningham up for the Brazil friendly and then not include him in the training camp? Is he injured? You'd think this would be the best time to see new left-backs in action? Well at least he included Ward :P
