______________________
Looks like a strong enough squad. Obviously it's great to see Duffy back, along with O'Brien. Any ideas as to how they'll lineup?
Interestingly, the FAI article says that they will announce the new manager shortly, so I take it that McCaffrey won't be in charge for these games?

I think Don Givens is getting the job

**Razors left peg** · 18/09/2010, 1:44 PM

so who actually picked that squad if there is no manager in charge at the moment

**SwanVsDalton** · 18/09/2010, 2:05 PM

Koevermans? Looks a decent squad although I don't know much about a few of them. Who's Sean McGinty? Sounds like a Derry head...

**Razors left peg** · 18/09/2010, 2:08 PM

Sean McGinty is english born as far as I can remember. Think United picked him up from Charlton couple season ago

I too thought that Koevermans might take the reins for these games.

Isn't Sean McGinty the name of a famous College teacher?

That lad McGinty is an English born defender who United signed from Charlton. I think he captained the U17s or U19s before. Here's his United profile: Sean McGinty

EDIT: RLP beat me to it.

Doolin makes changes to the U19 squad

Injuries have forced the withdrawal from the original 18-man squad of Pat McEleney (Derry City), Sean McDermott (Arsenal) and Shane Byrne (Leicester City). Replacing them on the plane to Sofia on Sunday morning were Anton Rogers (Chelsea), Gary Shaw (Bray Wanderers) and Finn Harps goalkeeper Ciaran Gallagher.

Dennis Irwin's son is in there? And a dude from Sky's Footballs Next Star. Weird. I'm not a huge LoI fan, is he any good - the Next Star guy?

**Dodge** · 04/10/2010, 12:58 PM

Well he's not good enough for the premier division. He's on loan at Longford from Rovers. Doing OK for them apparently. He's been in every Irish squad for the past couple of years

Predator's post says the match is on at 4. Is that local time? Cause UEFA has 15:00, but that could be CET, meaning the match could be on here at 2. Does anyone know for sure?

**Closed Account** · 07/10/2010, 9:14 AM

Yes 2pm here, 3pm CET, and 4pm Local Time(Bul)
