QuoteI'm actually surprised that I recognise all the names, bar Darren Murphy. I didn't realise a lot of them were U23. It certainly looks a strong squad to me, based mainly on reputation.

One of the most promising young players at City, any time he has played he's been one of our best players on the pitch but for some reason Mr. Rico is not fond of playing him too oftenOriginally Posted by eirebhoy
Oh no not them again
Out of that lot, my team would be:
Murphy
Coleman Kenna Peers Powell
Kavanagh Keegan Joxer Brennan
Mooney Quigley
Murphy
O'Brien Kenna Peers Coleman
Kavanagh Keegan Murphy Brennan
Mooney Behan
would be my XI
Although you'll just have top take my word on Murphy.
I thought it was strange that no first division players featured, Cobh have a few cracking young players.
Cork City: Making 'Dream Team' seem realistic since 2007.
Darren Murphy is our best centre mid bar Gamble, Rico hasn't played him since the two Fifa clowns became available though.
Where will the other teams be sourcing their players from? I presume the English setup won't get at the Premiership starlets, and will pick from the Championship - is there any indication of what quality to expect from the other competing teams?
we should have at least 1 player on that team!!.... but we're not frm dublin i suppose!!
There's the right way, the wrong way.... and the Max Power way!! :-D
England just call it their C Team.
This is their squad:
Lance Cronin - Ebbsfleet United
Adam Bartlett - Blyth Spartans
Barry Fuller - Stevenage Borough
John Brayford - Burton Albion
Michael Morrison - Cambridge United
Ronnie Henry - Stevenage Borough
Liam Brownhill - Witton Albion
Matthew Day - Oxford United
Louis Soares - Aldershot Town
Stuart Lewis - Stevenage Borough
Russell Penn - Kidderminster Harriers
Lewis Chalmers - Aldershot Town
Mitchell Cole - Stevenage Borough
James Constable - Kidderminster Harriers
Shaun Harrad - Burton Albion
Matthew Tubbs - Salisbury City
We've been playing in these things for a few years now. played in a 4 team tournament a few months ago and this was the Ireland squad:

Italy usually pick Serie C players I think.

Someone on our forum said Behan and Kelly started. Anyone have the full 11?
Fenlon must have seen Kellys incredible lob on Friday

According to someone at the game Sean Kelly isn't playing. He's not sure who it is in defence, it is a blonde fella but not Kelly.Fenlon must have seen Kellys incredible lob on Friday

Strong enough team to be fair!
Pity Darren Murphy didnt make the bench
2-0 result.
Another example of the failure that is Don Givens
