    I wonder why that is?

    According to the regulations:

    Article 19.04 The mini-tournament must be organised according to the following schedule:
    Day 1: Arrival of the UEFA match delegate
    Day 2: Arrival of all teams
    Arrival of all referees and other UEFA match officers
    Organisational meeting
    Day 3: Matchday 1: Matches 1 v 4 and 3 v 2
    Day 4: Rest day
    Day 5: Rest day
    Day 6: Matchday 2: Matches 1 v 3 and 2 v 4
    Day 7: Rest day
    Day 8: Rest day
    Day 9: Matchday 3: Matches 2 v 1 and 4 v 3
    Day 10: Departure of all teams
    Departure of the referees
    Departure of the UEFA match officers.
    And:

    Article 20.05 Unless the UEFA administration grants special approval, host associations are not
    allowed to fix kick-off times before 11.00 or after 21.00 (local time).
    So UEFA don't set the kick-off times but just insist that games are played between 11am and 9pm. And teams are covered for the night after they play their last game.

    I took your word for setting of Kick-off times regarding the U21's yesterday - I shouldn't have really - I knew it was FAI incompetence!

    The42 are claiming Clarke, Doyle Hayes and Shodipo are out of the game tonight, but I can't find confirmation from the FAI: http://www.the42.ie/ireland-u21s-nor...30035-Oct2017/
    However, Clarke, Shopido and Doyle Hayes were ruled out through injury by the FAI last night.

    Only 3 Irish-born or reared and only one LOI player starting in spite of strong presence in squad.

    0-0 at half time, Ireland improving throughout the half. Best play is coming through the middle and then out to the left to Curtis, who's probably been the best player so far. Rice in midfield looks good on the ball, and he's bigger than I thought. Very little coming down the right.
    The final ball is lacking. The build up is good, players finding space, but the final cross has rarely hit the striker. Grego-Cox is battling hard but he's about 5 foot 6, keep it on the deck!
    For Norway their right full is their biggest threat, he's a big lad and breaks into our half when in possession and looks to create something.

    Surely has to be seen as a poor result at home against a side already beaten by Kosovo.

    They beat Kosovo 5-0... but played an ineligible player so the result was awarded 3-0 to Kosovo.

    They did lose 3-2 away to them but to be fair Kosovo only lost 1-0 in Tallaght and 1-0 in Germany last time out, so I'd say they're much better than their senior team and also Norway are probably quite decent too - on the back of tonight's showing that seems true.

    A win against Israel on Monday would set us up nicely in the group.
    I phoned the speaking clock to hear a voice speak, it said - "At the tone you will be very much alone"

    Ireland did everything except score, really should have gotten a win. Cullen was awarded MOTM, I'd have given it to Curtis myself, but Cullen did play well. Everyone did to be honest, the only disappointment was Charsley, he was right in front of where I was sitting in the second half and he never really looked interested in the game. Sweeney at right full got forward more than he did!

    They were playing up front beside each other, so I really didn't understand why we were crossing so much, given all of the Norway back line were huge. Grego-Cox reminded me of Jay Tabb, lot of ability but his size might count against him

    FWIW I thought Whelan and Donnellan worked well at centre half,

    I watched the game on Eir sports and agree with most of your assessment Tets. Curtis definitely looked the most promising attacking player and I agree Charsley was poor (despite delivering the best cross of the game). I though Grego-Cox was very disappointing though, ran around a lot but was very poor when he did get on the ball and missed the best chance of the game. On the second half performance Ireland probably did enough to win the game, but they took a long time to get going. It looks a promising group of players overall.

    2-0 Charsley 35min - not watching but would be a great result on the face of it if they can keep it up.

    3-0 now. Peno Grego Cox.
    Eir Sport have brief highlights. RGC missed a sitter earlier, Curtis chance wasn't much harder.
