Givens Announces Squad for Under 21 Qualifier
Date: Wednesday, 02 August 2006
Section: International Teams
Manchester United's 18-year old midfielder Darron Gibson has received his first call-up to the Irish Under-21 squad for the UEFA Championship qualifying game away to Greece on Wednesday, August 16th.
Don Givens’ side will play Greece at the Panionios FC Stadium in Nea Smyrni (kick-off 20.00 hrs) before hosting Belgium at Terryland Park, Galway on Friday, September 1st (kick-off 19.30 hrs). The top team in the three-nation group will advance to a play-off in October where they will contest for a place in next year’s Finals, to be hosted in the Netherlands.
Derry-born Gibson made his competitive debut for United last season and has received praise from his club manager Alex Ferguson for impressing during the current series of pre-season matches.
Goalkeeper Darren Randolph, defender Darren O’Dea and attacker Anthony Stokes join Gibson in Givens’ squad having all been promoted from last season’s Republic Under-19 panel.
Kevin Deery has been rewarded for his consistent displays with Derry City, including last week’s victory over IFK Gothenburg in the UEFA Cup, with a call-up to the squad.
Ireland made it through the pre-qualifying stages of the competition in May by beating Azerbaijan 4-1 on aggregate after a two-legged tie.
There will be a limited number of complimentary tickets for schoolboy/girl clubs for the Belgium game. Contact Aisling Fennin 01 7037504 for details.

Greek channel, Mega TV, will be showing delayed coverage at 10pm our time (midnight over there). I'm pretty sure if you phoned up the likes of Frazers they'd put it on for you. You know it's on tomorrow though?Originally Posted by NeilMcD
Yeah I was thinking of catching some of it before the game but it looks like now it might be after it. Not sure I could bear Frazers to see it though.

Anyone with a satellite pointing at 13°E would put it on for you no doubt. Gleeson's in Ringsend show Saturday Celtic games on a Polish channel so they might be able to show it. If you phone around I'm sure you'd get a decent spot somewhere.
Did this result get overlooked?

Looks like it! it was lost in the mire of yesterday's result...Fair play to them, Given's is an absolute eejit but that is a pretty damn good result away from home to be fair! Worth keeping an eye on a few of these lads this season....McShane, Timlin, Whelan, Foley, Flood.....would have to be better than the ****e that we were served last night!!
I was one of the few guys jumping about the place when I heard the result on the loudspeakers at the game last night. I was delighted for the lads, great 3 points and sets us up nicely for the game in Galway, Pity it clashes with the Germany game.

Looked it up:
makes him 22.....Glenn Whelan (born January 13, 1984)
Yeah I noticed how nobody on the east terrace even batted an eyelid when this was announced...more interested in booing "rival premiership players"
They would hardly have done worse last night against the Dutch!Same here.

Roy O'Donovan ran the show against the Azerbaijans but somehow Givens didnt even give him a game.
Does anyone know how Deery played ?
