Just on that, according to UEFA.com, players who were born on, or after, the 1st January 1986 qualify to play for this year's U-21 Championship.
Assuming that players born on or after the 1st January 1988 will qualify for the next set of qualifiers, this is the list of those players in England and Scotland who have started 1 or more games for their club

Code:

Player Name Club Date of Birth Age Home AwayTotal Michael Spillane Norwich 23/03/89 19 14 18 32 Anthony Pilkington Huddersfield 06/06/88 20 12 16 28 Jamie McCarthy Hamilton 12/11/90 18 11 12 23 Scott Davies Reading 10/03/88 20 13 10 23 Stephen Gleeson Wolverhampton Wanderers 03/08/88 20 11 11 22 Jimmy Ryan Accrington 06/09/88 20 11 11 22 Owen Garvan Ipswich 29/01/88 21 6 10 16 Aidan Downes Yeovil 24/07/88 20 7 9 16 John-Joe O'Toole Watford 30/09/88 20 9 6 15 Sean Scannell Crystal Palace 17/09/90 18 6 7 13 Michael Liddle Sunderland 25/12/89 19 6 7 13 Damien McCrory Plymouth 01/01/90 19 7 5 12 James Berrett Huddersfield 13/01/89 20 3 5 8 Andy Jackson St Johnstone 09/01/88 21 3 4 7 Cillian Sheridan Celtic 23/02/89 19 4 3 7 Keith Treacy Blackburn 13/09/88 20 3 3 6 Brendan Moloney Nottingham Forest 18/01/89 20 4 2 6 Anthony Stokes Sunderland 25/07/88 20 3 2 5 Julian Kelly Reading 06/09/89 19 2 3 5 Eddie Nolan Preston 05/08/88 20 1 2 3 Lanre Oyebanjo Histon 24/04/90 18 3 0 3 Karl Moore Man City 09/11/88 20 3 0 3 Alan Power Hartlepool 23/01/88 21 2 0 2 Andy McNulty Inverness CT 16/01/89 20 0 1 1 Alan Judge Blackburn 11/11/88 20 0 1 1

Note: some of these players are out on loan, I've just listed their parent clubs
Onynajo has started more games than this, but since I don't include non-league games in Irish Abroad, the 3 games he's started have been in the cup

Seriously???? I thought we've been doing pretty well
Even Ray Houghton has been saying we are the better team. Yes Germany have hit the woodwork a few times but we have created some great chances of our own

Me too, though Redmond is having a 'mare in goals. He could do with being subbed. At fault for the goal and he made a feeble effort at saving the last effort that hit the post.

Yet again we have a team of teenagers (avg age 19?) against a full team of 21 year olds!

Just seen the German goal, poor keeping to say the least.
Hard to believe anyone could get beat from that angle. (about 2 degrees from the touchline!!)

Good start to the second half. For all the German's strength we are showing more guile.

Watching the game on Sky and I notice that there's an electronic scoreboard in the St Anne's end. Is this the first LoI ground with such a thing?
