Says so on aertel. For some tournament in Madeira. That would be their 2nd or 3rd squad?

Republic of Ireland Under-21 Squad
Colin Doyle Stephen Ward
Darren Quigley Andy Keogh
Keith Keane Mark Yeates
Gerard Nash Roy O'Donovan
Paul McShane
Marcos Painter
James Hand
Shane McFaul
Gary Dicker
Michael Collins
Michael Timlin

Stephen Ireland
Stephen Foley
Stephen Bradley

Will Quigley start? I can't identify the other keeper(s) in that list.

Don Givens was on the radio yesterday. I'll try to get the snippet later. He had lots of good things to say.

Is it Gerard Nash, for the keeper, thats been playing really well in Ipswich's first team lately... Any info on Shane McFaul or James Hand? Worrying sign that only 5 (Not including Loanees McShane, Yeates etc) are in the premiership though.

Is it?

McGeady is at Celtic and there's some eL regulars there like the aformentioned UCD players. If any of them can make the step up a la Kevin Doyle then it's been more beneficial that they spent their early years playing competitive football as opposed to underage or reserve English football. I really hope Quigley won't be passed over for a new keeper.

Yeah, but with the way the scouting system works these days, if we are to get a Keane, Duff or Given out of this squad they would be with a premiership team or else making a first team impact at their lower division team to such an extent that we would all know about them by now. As for Celtic, I think the likes of Miller proves what the standard is like up there. McNamara was one of their best players for years and when he left went to an average championship side. Buying a burnley left back to improve their squad?
