Meanwhile, Carruthers was sent off for two dangerous tackles and Jack Grealish - who turns 18 tomorrow - has just come on.
I would leave but the Iceland u21's aren't playing tonight.

As the irish free kick was ballooned way over the German bar, out of the stadium, the commentator says something like 'i'm sure the locals are use to seeing that'.
Only when Shamrock Rovers visit
Match report. Looked like a strong Irish side too.

is Kenneth McEvoy injured or suspended?
He scored for a Spurs XI a few days ago in a bounce game against QPR: http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news...-2-qpr-011013/
According to the papers this morning Anton Rodgers is on stand-by.
And there has been an attempt to bring in Cork born Colorado Rapids defender Shane O'Neill

I think Rodgers has just returned to no man's land, somewhere between Newry and Dundalk.
Deputy Harry's comments could pass as unintended sarcasm, a dig against Trap.
" The new senior manager, in my view, will need a tighter and more forceful link.There has to be a stronger association there with the underage squads. I’m not saying that he has to be at the Emerging Talent Programme every Monday night but he should at least attend a seminar. He could talk about certain styles of play there.”
If he only he had said, 'at least he could/should be able to, talk about certain styles'.

After a strong performance at the FIFA Under-20 World Cup, Colorado Rapids defender Shane O’Neill is on more than one national team radar. The 20-year-old Irish-American has been doing interviews with Irish media, saying he would welcome a chance to play for either team.
“I think it’s just whoever kind of gives me the opportunity,” O’Neill told MLSsoccer.com on Tuesday. “I’d want to play for both; I think I said last week I’d be excited to play for Ireland, but I’d also be really happy to play for the U.S.”
O’Neill, who scored the U.S.’s only goal in the 4-1 loss to Ghana in the Americans’ last match of the U20 World Cup, grew up in Boulder, Colo., but he was born in Midleton, Republic of Ireland. His family moved to the U.S. when he was 1 year old.
Irish U21 coach Noel King has been in touch with him, according to the MLSSoccer.com story, although O’Neill said he “definitely” considers himself to be an American.
“I definitely grew up here completely, so definitely American,” he said. “But at the same time, your Irish heritage, everything at home is pretty Irish: drinking tea all the time with my mom and all that kind of stuff. I went back to Ireland every summer for the entire time, and all my family is back there.”
O’Neill signed with the Rapids as a Homegrown Player in June 2012, and he has started 20 games this year for Oscar Pareja’s side after making just a four-minute appearance in his rookie season.
Mom? He's a a yank alright.
But he drinks tea...

I'll let him off if it's Barry's, but if it's that Lyons ****e, then he can bugger off.

0-0 at half-time , the ROI with two great opportunities according to UEFA.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
Still 0-0
Stream here I think http://link.ltv.su/165780/en
Was surprised a Romanian got booked for that tackle, looked fine to me, it seems like you are not allowed to tackle theses
days, it was poor pass and the Romanian was always gonna be there first but he got booked for trying to get the balll!
Anyway 0-0
Was that Forde? who went on a run? Dunno the teams.
Seems it was, I have found the game info now.

Looks to be heading to a 0-0, seems like the game is a non-contact sport ref giving fouls for the slightest contact!
I'd classify that as a great point earned away from home. They've been decent at under 21 level, narrowly missing out on the play-off's in two of the last 3 and winning one of those groups.
Need to beat them in Sligo on Tuesday.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
