text commentary for final qualifier against Scotland in Limerick: http://www.uefa.com/under19/season=2...011/index.html
Just kicked off, Scotland took an early lead after only two minutes
Two up. Day-day bye-bye.
Three now.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
Bye bye Mr. Doolin...

4-0...
To be fair this is the first time in years we have not got to the 2nd elite round phase and he did take us to the semi s with the group that had hendrick in it even without brady when deulofeu from everton destroyed us . this scots side got to the euro 17s semi finals 2 years ago so must have bit about them. The group looked awful light and as much as people hate to hear it havin a lot of league of ireland lads in the squad is usually a sign of a lack of dept in an age group. Next years group for example is unlikely to have many lads who are not in the uk involved.
Longer-form match report/opinion piece here for anyone who's interested...
Ireland U19 0-4 Scotland U19: Ireland eliminated after miserable showing at Markets Field
RTE headline was "Ireland Fail To Shine".
That's a bit like Emperor Hirohito's "developments not necessarily to our advantage" after Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
I saw that alright and was equally nonplussed!
Ireland "go easy" on the Scots
the 18s won 4 nil today http://www.fai.ie/ireland/match/5550...391?tab=report
Great to see kinsella back. they left out alot of the lads who were first choice for the 17s in the euro finals hopefully building dept for the 19s qualifiers next season, Think doolin deserves to stay but will be under pressure if does not get this group to the 19s finals next season. Mcdonagh looks like a giant in the photo!!
Squad named for friendlies in September against Wales: http://www.fai.ie/ireland/news/u19-2...les-friendlies
Ryan Johansson of Bayern Munich is included. If he plays in the U19 qualifiers in October - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_U...ation#Group_10 - will that mean he's tied to Ireland, since he's already played for Luxembourg's U17 side?Republic of Ireland Under-19 Squad

Oh that's interesting! One for the experts... I think you are right though, as of today. There was some talk last year of relaxing this somewhat but my understanding is that you can switch once, and that the switch applies to moving from any other nationality / age group regardless of whether the fixture was competitive or not.
Aside from that, do we know much about Tom Gaston? I don't think I've seen the name before. Looks Irish anyway:

That really is a heck of a forward line (and doesn't even include Ryan Cassidy) - bit light in midfield so it's good that Johansson has come on board.
