Ireland U21 squad announced

**Diarmo** · 15/03/2008, 11:16 PM

Didn't realize he was injured. But I seriously think that because we're having so much trouble at LB for the seniors we should start looking at Painter. As far as I've heard from Swansea fans, he's rated pretty well, and he has some Premiership experience.

By the way, how's Sheehan doing at Leeds?

Republic of Ireland Under-21 manager Don Givens has been forced to make two more changes to his squad Tuesday’s UEFA qualifier against Montenegro at Terryland Park (7.30pm).

John-Paul Kelly (Bohemians) and Seamus Coleman (Sligo Rovers) have today been called in as replacements for Chris McCann (Burnley) and Jim O’Brien (Celtic), both of whom picked up injuries for their clubs on Saturday.

Goalkeepers Darren Randolph of Charlton Athletic and Derry City’s Darren Quigley were ruled out and replaced by Shane Supple of Ipswich Town and Bristol City’s Stephen Henderson.

Irish Under-18 striker Sean Scannell (Crystal Palace) was called up to deputise for the injured Keith Treacy (Blackburn Rovers).

Ireland meet Montenegro in their final home match of their UEFA qualifying group.

Manager Don Givens said: "We have been playing well but the ball hasn’t been going in the back of the net for us. That is something that we are hoping to rectify next Tuesday.”

He added: “Terryland Park is a wonderful venue and we are really looking forward to playing there. It would be marvelous to get a big crowd to the game and to create a bit of a noise for the players.”

Tickets at gate? How much are they?

**Carrigaline** · 25/03/2008, 8:26 AM

Tried calling the FAI and Galway United to find out what was the situation with tickets. No response from either

I assume it's tickets at the gate.

According to Galway United, tickets can be bought at the gates. €10 for an adult, OAP's and children under 16 get in for free. Kick-off at 7:30pm.

See you there

.
Not much promotion of it in Galway, haven't seen one poster, don't have a clue how much tickets are. Got a text from the FAI about it this morning didnt mention price though.

**KoemansCC** · 25/03/2008, 10:48 AM

No promotion in the city at all or on any websites, told a few of the lads in work that it was on and they are all going now, otherwise they were oblivious...

Just back from a training session in the Clayton Hotel and all the squad were there relaxing in the foyer waiting for the bus to go for a kick about...thats where there based if anyone wants to bring their kids for autographs or anything...
