    Along with former irish u16s Egan-Riley and Barry. Barry has always entertained the possibility of ultimately representing ireland... Himself and Delap are the two stars from that squad.

    Conor Gallagher came on as a substitute tonight for England at the Euro Under 21 championships (which England look set to crash out of in the groups). As he turned 21 last month this appearance has made him ineligible to play for Ireland at any level.

    Not the biggest story of the weekend but anyway. I wonder if he'll ever break into the England first team.

    No, he's ineligible. A competitive appearance at underage level after your 21st birthday ties you now with the new rules.

    A bit mad that Gallagher is tied to England while Bazunu is not tied to Ireland despite playing a senior world cup qualifier yesterday, but those are now the rules (not that there's any prospect of Bazunu switching - just mentioning it because he is still eligible for Nigeria).

    The rules are very difficult to balance but I think they've more or less got this right.

    I think the stranger one is that Gallagher is tied to England for an U21 game but Nathan Redmond isn't for a full senior game, albeit a friendly.

    I think I’ve posted here before about him but Peter Kioso nabbed two for Northampton Town last night. He’s 21 and his wiki says he’s from Swords but doesn’t seem to have ever featured for us underage. He was on loan with Bolton in the first half of the season where I saw him play in 2 games and he really impressed me. Good attacking right back. His stats are decent and nice to see him stepping up to L1 with apparent ease.

    Anyone got any more info on his national status/allegiances? His parents are from DR Congo.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Kioso

    A few more links here - some speculation in the last paragraph of the second link...

    18 year old Darragh Burns scored again last night for St Pats. Second in four games. 18 years of age.

    Darragh is from Dublin but his father is from the north and Darragh has been involved with them up to 19s.

    Kioso I think previously mentioned a preference for DR Congo. However, and I'm not meaning to be unduly disrespectful to that country here, from what I know of the place it's not somewhere that is a particularly accessible place to build an international career. Potentially more hassle than it's worth is probably what I'm trying to say. So I wouldn't be surprised if he took an Irish call up if offered one. However he's overage for the 21s now so it would have to be a senior call up and I don't think he has shown enough at a high enough level to get one of those so far. Unless there are an absolute raft of calloffs for the June games.

    I believe he declared for the DRC but had a change of heart in recent times.
