Slash/ED - No need to worry about Barrett ,he's been playing at a high standard in the Coventry reserve team
Its a mixture of the facts that (1) I want the U-21's to qualify almost as much I want my club team to win the league, and (2) I've seen McGeady play the last couple of months and other than last weekend he hasn't been playing too well. Plus the fact that Elliott is going to be on the bench if either Reid or Duff get injured.
Iam glad to see Joey O'Brien in the squad from what I have read him and Vaz Te are the two best yougsters at Bolton has anyone seen him play and If so what type of midfeilder is he ?
I've only seen him once and he was a box to box type player. He captained the Bolton reserves last week even though half the team were first teamers and it was his first game back for Bolton since December so is highly regarded.
Cheers hopefully he will get a chance at the end of the season for them.
McGeady's inclusion in the U21 squad could be a sign that Kerr is planning to play Finnan RHM with Reid as his "coming off the bench" option.
As for McCarhy's ommission, isn't eligibility determined by your age at the start of the competition. i.e., you can't become too old half-way through the qualifiers.
Just checked. McCarthy was booked against Cyprus and France so is suspended.
Cork play Bray the same day as the U-21's play Israel so they must have requested that Doyle not be included.
Probably something similar with Cork City wanting Kearney rested so? Would he be able for competitive football before the seasons starts?Originally Posted by eirebhoy
In regards to the age issue. Once you were born on or after 1st January 1983 you are eligible to take part in the qualifiers and finals. So anyone that played in the qualifiers are obviously eligible to play in the finals if we qualify, even if they are 23 by the finals comes around.
Who is Patrick Kohlmann & how can he play for Ireland?Kohlmann (Borussia Dortmund)
This is only info i found on him click HERE

You would hope that the reason that Kearney and especially Doyle were not called up was because City wasnted them to stay rather than Givens dropping them.
If he has dropped them, Doyle in particular, he's more of a fool than I ever gave him credit for
Oh no not them again
There's no way he dropped them. You don't suddenly go from being first choice striker and left winger to being dropped out of the squad. I hope this isn't a common thing under Richardson though.
Paddy Coleman is german born with an Irish mammy. As far as I know he hasnt broken into the Brussia senior team but is a regular with their "A" reserve squad. A decent defender who should be needing to make a push for a better standard of football this year if he wants to progress. I think this is his last year at U21 but i could be wrong
Who is this guy, Trapper Tony?
As I said in just the 3rd post in the opening post in this thread, Kohlmann started against Kaiserlautern in November. Went off injured before half time though.
This site says he was born in Ireland, has dual-nationality.

Height 180m, weight 70 kg, plays "Abwehr" = Defender.
He's number 31 in the main Dortmund squad now. Has only started one game, the 1-0 defeat at Kaiserslautern. He was taken off on 43 mins, and Dortmund conceeded a penalty 71st min, which Kaiserslautern scored (from here. He's been at Dortmund since 1993, before that he played youth football for Eintracht Dortmund and Westfalia Wickede.
http://www.a2zsoccer.com/news/conten...m?file=1680611Ireland's Under 21 Manager, Don Givens, has called up Manchester United's Paul McShane and Kevin Doyle of Cork City for Friday's UEFA Championship match against Israel in Tel Aviv, Kick Off 1pm Irish time.
The pair replace Tottenham's Stephen Kelly and David Bell of Rushden and Diamonds, who both withdrew yesterday because of injury.
The squad will train at the AUL Complex in Clonshaugh this afternoon at 4.30pm.
Thats weird. I'd love to know what the situation is/was with Doyle. Pity we'll be missing captain Kelly.
What is Aiden McGeady's squad number in Ireland u-21?
The senior squad doesn't even have specific squad numbers. Whoever is in the first 11 gets a number from 1-11 basically.
BARRETT...Why in God's name is this doughnut in the senior panel.He is a terrible player cant even get a game for Sh*te Coventry.Is he having some private visits to Kerrs Gaff? Get rid of this clown.
