Should he experiment further or go with his strongest 11 to prepare for the Czech/Slovak games? Personally I think he should give Colin Doyle another run out and go with his strongest outfield line-up and send them out for a win. Unless O'Halloran starts getting games for Villa, I think we're stuck with either Harte or O'Shea at left back. I'd go for Harte, because as bad as he is, he's better than O'Shea at left back and is a good bet for a goal.

Lads, maybe this has been posted elsewhere but I can't find it: does anyone have details re: ticket outlets and general travel and match information for the game in Aarhus? Any advice or even links would be much appreciated!
Yours sincerely,

O'Halloran hasn't done anything to merit a starting place yet. Stokes should be given a decent run upfront in the second half, same with O'Halloran, Potter and Murphy and see if they can impress against decent opposition. Wouldn't mind seeing Alan O'Brien get a run out if he gets off to a decent start with Hibs too.

I only add Kilbane as there is NO hope stan shall ever drop him
Half time subs...O Halloran, Doyle,Potter,A reid (if fit) and Murphy and Norris just to cap him
Will Roy O'Donovan be eligible for a cap now that he's on his way to Engerland??
Kilbane has been playing at left back for Wigan so far under their new manager. There's a good chance Stan will try him there for us.
Tets I seem to remember the exact same thing happening to Timlin this time last season (i.e played every single pre-season game) and, as far as I know, he didn't make a single appearance in the Prem...Have you seen him play? and does he have the ability to break into the first team this year or will we see him dropping down the leagues?
"Well I think they'll be a little disappointed with that" - Matt Holland on TV3 after 5-2 drubbing by Cyprus
ARENT steven and andy reid still injured?
I
steven reid is back in training - as for andy last i heard he was attending some specialist in germany - would be great to have the 2 boys fit and back in the team.
will robbie carry over his spurs form to ireland ? if not - dare i say should we play a 4-5-1 and leave doyle up front on his own- drop robbie ? - opinions please
also would welcome ppl's opinions on o'shea should he start in slovakia and in what position ? - if he was to be dropped - then finnan right back - who left back ? harte /kelly etc etc
They sold Quedrue but they bought Koncheskey, and Rosenior can cover left back also. Thats all irrelevant though because Timlin is a Left Winger, converted to a Central Midfielder but back playing Left Wing in every pre season game for Fulham so far this year. However at the start of the season he will be behind Clint Dempsey and maybe Lee Cook, plus Fulham have been linked with Chris Brunt, Seol Ki Hyun and Hammer Bouazza all of whom can play left wing. Not much hope for Timlin then, he should get himself a move to the Championship and work his way up like many an Irish player.
