    So it's a school international? That explains why England and Scotland were wearing different kits than their national teams last Friday. Does it count as an international? Still counts as a great to represent your country at any sport at any level.

    Technically its not an international as its open to pupils attending school in the individual countries, and there's no nationality barrier. There's been a couple of Nigerian lads who have played for the Irish schools side, and one of the more famous examples is Ryan Giggs who played for England schools as his school was in England.

    Still a great honour though. Particularly for the lads who stayed in Ireland and look to finish their schooling. The Ireland u18 team tends to be made up of lads at academies in England and Scotland (with a few home based players obviously). That fact means the impressive Irish performances thuis year are even better IMO

    So you don't have to Irish just attend school here to play? I can remember the the Ryan Giggs thing alright.

    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.

    irish are generally dominating. Looking good. that right winger looks decent. (im only watching in patches as i am at work)
    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    0-0 at the half. England attacked a bit more in the last ten minutes. Ireland dominated possession in the first half and looked very comfortable on the ball. Unlucky not to have a goal or two. English keeper looks good.

    We're 11/5 with Boyles to win. I haven't been watching- are we worth a punt? Draw is 11/8, England win 13/8.

    from what i have seen - if youre going to bet, go small on the win or large on the draw.

    We looked very good, but I'll leave it at that, as I don't want to jinx ye.

    Some intersting stats:

    In our last 10 meetings with England at this level we have only lost once, winning six of those games.
    We've beaten Wales and NI so far this season, draw with Scotland.
    England beat Scotland but lost to NI.

    So I've decided to put a fiver on us at 11/5.

    Good chance at each end there. Nice break by the Irish lads.
