Yeah but the clubs need their players at that time more the ireland u-21s do for a few friendlies.

Would have been nice had that been the last game of the group.

7 points would most likely get you the runner up place
Some fine maths there.LOL

Confused

I'm confused what is funny.

Is it that I'm stating the obvious that two wins and a draw would be 7 points?

As I said I'd rather say have China and Bahrain first have six points on board knowing that perhaps a draw against Mexico would be enough to possibly reach 7 points.

Though looking at the other groups

Group B has France, Brazil, Guatamala and Qatar, you'd imagine the French and Brazilians might be in the same boat as ourselves and Mexico thinking 7 points might be enough for the runner up spot.

Because you can’t possibly finish any lower than second on seven points. It would be a mathematical impossibility.

seven points was enough to get in to the second round for the last two tournaments

The only way seven points wouldn’t get you through is on goal difference.

Regretting I didn't try and book a few days off for this. Would've been a handy away trip, taking in a couple of their group games before heading over to Copenhagen for the Friday. 
Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been.

Be interesting to see who is in the squad as there is a lot of lads who could potentially be in it who weren’t in it last time: Ryan johansson, Ryan Nolan, Simon power, josh Barrett, Callum o’hare Etc

No Troy Parrott in the squad. 

Nathan Collins, Armstrong Oko-flex, Daniel Mandriou, Trevor Clarke notable omissions.   

Parrott, Obafemi, Bazunu, Doyle-Hayes injured.

Wonder will the 19s players picked miss the Euros now ? Bit of a joke of they do imo. Why play a meaningless freindly tounrament agabist second rate opposition instead of going to and trying to win a European Championship. Lads like O'Connor, Idah, Connolly, Coventry, and Knight all in this squad.

Some Jack Taylor lad from Barnet called up as well as Stephen Mallon of Sheffield Utd.

Don't know why we keep talking about this lad when he doesn't seem too bothered with us.
