    It's an U-21 side for us as well. The stats I posted just show how many young players we blood in the first team.

    Could he have been adding money from earlier stages? Doubtful, but...
    You can't spell failure without FAI

    There's no money for anyone but the winners afaik.

    We've used 33 players in the first team so far this season, it'd be difficult to find a team of players who haven't featured!
    We're not arrogant, we're just better.

    well done UCD going tru the whole comp only losing once (to us as it would happen)

    Overall though i think just like the under 21 comp of the last few years teams get weaker as the season rolls on. While you might have a strong team starting, if your not getting first team football or junior clubs with money comming in poaching players leads to teams fielding kids near seasons end. I've watched teams walk through the league stages but all the time losing players, and by knock out time your looking at the subs and frindge kids or a full under 20s side as UCD met a few weeks ago. College have something else to hold the players for the duration of the comps, college!

    Not if they graduate half way through the season.
