Just came across this thread when looking for something. The Under 19 squad 5 years ago. Shame to see how few actually "make it" from that age.Originally Posted by Dodge
YoungIrish's descriptions of some of the prospects was also interesting, McShane in particular. To be fair though, most of his selections are still playing at the top level or not that far removed.
Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
Wow some of them fell by the wayside faster than Ger "Mad Crosser" Crossley.
I dont even know if Paul O'Shea would recognize Simon Madden or Harry Arter if they came in to give him his daily 4 PM Backrub.
No Somos muchos pero estamos locos.
The fickle hand of faith sees three of them playing for Longford Town in the 1st Division , football is a tough career and just shows how few have made the leap from promising youngster to full time pro
with the happy ending.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
Rooney still doing OK. Dissapointing to see the huge amount failing to break through to "Top level".
