With Paul Doolins first game as Irish Under 23 coach coming in mid May in Waterford. Waht team do people think he'll pick for the game against England at the R.S.C. ?
Seamie Conneely,Paul Sinnott and Karl Sheppard from Galway United should all be included.
Doolin was in Belfield for the Galway game I think though he wouldn't be picking many from either side based on that game!
Hands off our lads! They have enough games to play as it is. Seamie still plays for NUIG as well.
At Harps we would have 3 contenders in Packie Mailey, Stephen McLaughlin and Ciaran Gallagher.
What's the story with the international set up lads ? Can a player who is 23, play for the Under 23's, or are they
allowed a certain amount of overage players ?
Shaun Kelly and Ross Gaynor should get a chance.
David McAllister.
yep would like to see him in the team, he has settled into the pats team well,Quote:

Eleven Ronan Finn's :)
I was sitting beside Doolin in Tolka the other night, he wasnt really impressed with any of the players on show, he got a phonecall from someone who was at the Fingal Dundalk game and he didnt say nice things about Shaun Kelly
Have to agree,shaun had some season with us last year and solid stuff this season,one of our best players both seasons.Quote:

Harps have Packie Mailey, Liam Mailey, James Doherty, Johnny Lafferty and Stephen McLaughlin who are all contenders.
Players that are born after 01/01/1986 are eligible to play in it.Quote:

Never seen any of them so I@m not commenting on them as players but I@d be amazed if Doolin picks anyone from Harps.Quote:

Duno what game that person was watching as he was our only defender that performed well the other night and he was taken off as Foster went with 3 at the back for the last 15 minutes, the 3 being natural central defenders in Burns, Breen and Hatswell.Quote:

Fantastic professional Doolin it seems.
Like I said apart from Cherrie and JJ he was our best player and has been most consistent so far this season.Quote:

Any other suggestions? Will First Division players be in the mix? Don't think they got in the last time.

Vinny Faherty and Gareth Coughlan

This is Paul Doolin we're talking about possibly the most negative whinging son of a gun in the entire LOI. It shouldn't surprise you that he's giving out about something or someone. It's lucky that this competition doesn't actually mean anything as he'd be the last man I'd put in charge of a squad that's about development of younger players.Quote:

Darren Quigley
Robert Duggan
Seamus Conneely

Kenny Browne
Shaun Kelly
Garry Breen
Evan McMillan
Stephen O'Donnell
James Chambers
Ronan Finn
David McAllister
Shaun Williams
Eoin Doyle
Ross Gaynor
Gary McCabe
Paddy Madden
Karl Sheppard
Vinny Faherty
Billy Dennehy
Padraig Amond
Why did you pick him and not the younger keeper currently keeping him out of the Fingal team? (Brendan Clarke)Quote:

Agreed. I doubt whether Doolin knows anything about any of them in any case, and even if he did I can't see him picking anyone from a mid table D1 team.Quote:

Not a bad shout at all. I would doubt Evan McMillan would make it, he's not been playing very well when I've seen him. Is Shane McFaul eligible? He's looked good recently.Quote:

You obviously didn't see him in Terryland a week ago, because he was absolute muck. He flapped at all the crosses, and had his kicks charged down on 1 or 2 occasionsQuote:
