ya well maybe if they started giving tickets to those who went to the u21 gamse a ticket for the senior game on wednesday, a hell of a lot more people would be going
Tomorrow night in Turners Cross, Cork at 19.45, the Republic of Ireland U21 team take on France U21's.
My phones, e-mail and PM's have been bombarded with people looking for tickets for the senior game on Wednesday but none have expressd an interest in this game.
The game is live on Sky Sports but everyone should make an effort to go if they can.
The Ireland squad is;
Wayne Henderson Brighton & Hove Albion
Darren Quigley U.C.D
Kevin Foley Luton Town
Stephen Kelly Tottenham Hotspur
Paddy McCarthy Leicester City
John Fitzgerald Bury
Alan Sheehan Leicester City
Stephen Paisley Longford Town
Willo Flood Coventry City
Stephen Dawson Mansfield Town
Gary Dicker UCD
Liam Kearney Cork City
Aiden McGeady Glasgow Celtic
Jay Tabb Brentford
Kevin Doyle Reading
Daryl Murphy Sunderland
Roy O’Donovan Cork City
Have Boot Disk, will travel

There's enough talent on parade for this fixture to sell itself, if we had enough people with a genuine interest in football.Originally Posted by paul_oshea
I know it's awkward for many people with family and career commitments but for those who can make it, this is a game not to be missed!

We went to Troye for the away u21 fixture v France, only an hour or so on the train from Paris, cracking performance by Ireland in front of fifty Ireland fans, which was stark contrast to the thirty five thousand the following night.
Its crazy to see people be what society wants them to be but not me.
I'd genuinely like to go and generally get more supportive of the youth teams but I haven't a chance of getting down to Cork for 19.45, never going to happen.
I've a good chance of getting there, will there be any tickets available on the gate?
i'll be there.i had 2 tickets for the senior game but the gut churning, indeed sickening olé Olers( aka premiership lovers) have made me decide to give up my allocation
That's understandable, Donal.Originally Posted by Donal81

Should be.Originally Posted by Cowboy
Contact the FAI, there's a lot of complimentary tickets floating around.

I don't think the FAI do U-21 games in Dublin anymore as been very poor attendances in the past. I can't remember last night had one in Dublin.
There will certainly be more people at the cross tonight than would go anywhere else in the country.
The Switzerland game is pencilled in for Tolka.Originally Posted by pete

Revised squad is...
Wayne Henderson Brighton & Hove Albion
Darren Quigley U.C.D
Kevin Foley Luton Town
Stephen Kelly Tottenham Hotspur

Willo Flood Coventry City
Stephen Dawson Mansfield Town
Gary Dicker UCD
Liam Kearney Cork City

Based on previous games i'd guess line up will be:
Henderson,
Foley, Sheehan, Kelly, Fitzgerald,
McGeady, Dawson, Flood, Tabb/Kearney/O'Donovan
Doyle, Murphy
That would be great if the u21s match was on in Tolka for the Swiss game. What night is penciled in for?Originally Posted by Peadar

Cool I fly back from Cyprus that day , I think it will be straight from the Airport to Tolka so. I have been to a few U21 games and its worth the trip if you can make it in my view. I was very impressed with Stephen Elliot anytime I saw him play for the U21.
In Trap we trust
You going Peadar???
Sitting pretty!!!
I thought Joey O'Brien would be making the under 21s now though he still qualifies for the under 19s. What's happenned to Potter, Whelan and Timlin does anybody know?
Whelan and Potter injured. Pity as they're our first choice central midfield pairing.Originally Posted by youngirish
