QuoteEurosport showed the u16 final victory against Italy. Billy McNeill was the co commentator, I think the hard Scot was clearly over emotional when the final whistle blew.
Yeh it's usually on Eurosport. I watched most of Scotland's U19s on Eurosport last year. They got to the final.Originally Posted by Dr. Ogba

yeah I remember that. I may be imagining things but didn't Andy Reid captain that team?

Don't know but I doubt it, wasn't he was the baby of the team?
I always wondered about the legality of the goal from Keith Foy's free kick. The Italian wall was well flattened by a sideways rugby style shove to create a nice gap.
Shaun Byrne from West Ham captained the team. As far as I remember the team was -
Joe Murphy
Jonathan Douglas
Keith Foy
John O'Shea
Jim Goodwin
??? Think it was Brendan McGill or Thomas Butler
Shaun Byrne
Liam Miller
Andy Reid
Graham Barrett
David McMahon
That's close for the one that beat Italy, just take of Douglas and put on Thompson. And McGill played.
Disapointing long term return on lads that won that trophy.Injuries played a part in some of those lads not reaching their potential but still disapointing.
BTW I presume Conor Clifford will be starring for Chelsea in the FA youth final opposite the Man City lads?
I remember being really excited watching McGill - reminded me of Duff in the u20 championships, he was a small tricky little winger and was quite impressive in that final. Last I heard of him he was plying his trade with Carlisle during the Roddy Collins years....

Shaun Byrne was capt
Nope
Chelsea: Rhys Taylor, Seth Nana Ofori-Twumasi, Jeffrey Van Homoet Bruma, Patrick Van Aanholt, Benjamin Gordon, Michael Woods, Miroslav Stoch, Jacob Mellis, Morten Nielsen (Adam Phillip, 62) Sergio Tejera Rodriguez, Gael Kakuta.
Subs not used: Niclas Heimann, Thomas Taiwo, Daniel Philliskirk, Frank Nouble.
O´Shea was the one who had his ManU future marked out then.
It's ironic that he is playing for a top club, got the medals and looking at a few more but 99% of us would pick Andy Reid meandering around the low levels as the one who is reaching potential.
Kickoff times and venues now available here
http://www.tff.org/default.aspx?pageID=679
France 4pm local time Sunday 4/5
Switzerland 4pm local time Wednesday 7/5
Spain 8pm local time Saturday 10/5
Turkey is cirrently 2 hours ahead so assume 2pm and 6pm Irish time.
No real chance of the Swiss game being on tv as it is in the small stadium and head to head with Turkey v Scotland. However our games v France and Spain are in the bigger stadium and have Scotland v Serbia and Spain v Switzerland as the opposition so must be good candidates.
Think Clifford is a year younger than the lads in the youth cup so he should be in the team next year
Its really not that complicated!!!
The Ireland v France game at 2pm BST on Sunday May 4th and the Ireland v Spain game at 6pm BST Saturday May 10th will both be shown live on eurosport. The Swiss game on May 7th is not live.
Both semi finals on May 13th and the final on May 16th are also live should we make them.
