    if it helps, just remember - their names are spelt and pronounced differently
    All goals, yellow and red cards tweeted in real time on mastodon, BlueSky and facebook

    Two different people with completely different names so not sure why it confuses you?

    On another note no sign of Ledwidge / Brennan in the squad so I wound imagine they are with the Ireland u17 squad ? Colin is taking his time announcing the squad

    https://www.fotball.no/landslag/norg...r-mot-england/ hodge and okoflex played for brits 17s today. Obviously We are qualified as hosts so wont have competitive Games in october while brits will So likely both will be tied to brits but would have the ability to switch back later in their careers. Find It bizarre that okoflex lived here played for St kevins only moved at 11 and then left at 16 to go to celtic and still wants and Is eligible for england. He must have barely made the residency criteria. Thought He was excellent in victory shield last season for us

    Goals from the 3-0 win over Turkey. Some run in the build up to the third goal!

    The two sides meet again today.

    Okoflex and Hodge are in brits latest friendly squad. The brits play us here in a friendly tournament in November that will be really sticking it to us when okoflex lines out for brits in his home city

    squad for this week's games. very surprised to see Hodge in has played extensively for England. no okoflex . Cirkin who it seems was born in Ireland in brits squad. Not clear yet if okoflex is in England squad from checking this http://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/eng...75615/page-264 which is always on the money he played and scored for Celtic reserves today. The two man Utd forwards sotona and odubeko never seem to be picked for our 17s

    Strange with those two indeed. Probably a mystery like how Ryan Nolan, despite captaining Inter Milan at youth level, never gets picked for any Irish squads.

    Really disappointed not to see any of the double winning Finn Harps lads in the squad. They easily beat Shamrock Rovers 3-0 in the league final, yet Rovers have four players in the squad.

    Thought that was strange myself. Is there logistical issues with lads with school, etc, travelling down? I thought the days of squads being Dublin + a couple of players from elsewhere were behind us.

    Meant to mention it in the U23s thread - Goalkeeper Harry Halwax was on the bench for Derby U23s on Saturday - so with Bazunu and Corcoran, that's three very promising goalies in this squad

    No idea. Only two of the squad were invited to an assessment day in Dublin recently. There's some seriously high quality players in the squad too. Don't think Colin O'Brien was at either the league final or the Mark Farren Cup final.

    There was an article today in the Irish News about Betis youngster Anselmo Garcia MacNulty who has joined up with the U17s. He was up in Belfast learning about Belfast Celtic and Patrick O'Connell the former Real Betis manager...
