Massive game for the U17s in elite qualifying against Georgia at 16.30 today.

Win the match and we qualify for the European Championships.


This is because the 7 best second placed teams of the 8 groups qualify for the tournament. Belgium have finished their group already and have 1 point in the second place table. Only games against the teams who finish first and third count. 
We already have 3 points from beating Macedonia. If we beat Georgia, we will have at least 3 points on the table, even if Georgia finish last, or Macedonia, or indeed Poland (in which case we'd have 6 points on the second place table.
There is no way we can't finish at least 2nd if we win today, as Georgia and Poland drew in the first game.

Ireland go into the game as 3rd highest seed of the 32 teams in elite qualifying, Georgia are 23rd.
And Portugal and Germany are ranked 1st and second as they qualified automatically, so Ireland actually were the highest seeds after the first round of qualifying.

Yeah its half time. 40 mins away from the Euros, provided they don't concede twice (40 min halves at u17).

Poland 1-0 up in the other game, which has little bearing on things right now.

As it stands if we draw with Poland the next day we'll win the group and be in Pot 1 in the finals draw. Pot 1 teams are drawn into positions 1 and 2 in the groups. The worst group winners end up in Pot 2, but as long as we win the group from here, we will finish ahead of Sweden on points and Switzerland on goal difference (at least) and probably a few others by the time qualifying is over. We have enough points already if we hold out against Georgia, but unless Macedonia get an equaliser against Poland, we'll need a result in the next game to finish first.

We'll see how this plays out first.

Outstanding U17 team at the moment.

Another huge game for the U17s today. Draw with Poland and they top the group, which ensures being in position 1 or 2 in the Finals draw. Obviously that would give us a great chance in the finals of progressing from the group, like last year. Only this time hopefully we won't meet the eventual world cup winners in the QF.

Seriously impressive stuff. When you factor in how well the u-19’s are going, regardless of how today’s game goes, you’d have to say that someone within the FAI is doing a good job at grassroots level.

A brilliant win.


To see an Irish team beat the best Poland have to offer at that age level, in their own back yard in front of a large crowd, was fantastic.

Great campaign again by our U17s. Winning the elite group with 3 wins and no goals conceded LOL Clap

Going great last few years with underage teams. Is it because of Dokter ? Cant be a coincidence . Weve qualified for tournaments in 3 of last 4 of u17 and the one we missed out on was goal difference. We have also won the 4 nations cup 2 years on trot u16 level and have nearly qualified for u19 a few teams which is fairly hard to qualify for as its 8 mation tournament.

Take into it that this years u21 campaign has been best in a long time and the future looks bright.

Ryan Cassidy who has been in fantastic form for Watfords under-18’s/23’s lately is only 16 and can’t even make the squad in this age group.

Between Cassidy, Idah, McEneff and Parrot, we surely have a future first team striker amongst this lot.

A seriously talented team.

Glen McAuley too in our U18s team, has been banging in the goals for Liverpool's underage teams, was top scorer for their U18s last season.

Add in Aaron Connolly, Michael Obafemi (if he sticks with us), and the other striker at Southampton (name escapes me).

We’re on to something good in the next 4-5 years I think.

Yeah Connolly was top scorer in qualifying last year for this tournament.

Was at the 18s game today in Home Farm some decent performances in a game Ireland dominated but werent clinical enough. McAuley came on at half time and was decent just didnt get enough service, Aaron Bolger was brilliant in the middle very strong and a good football brain for someone so young.

Burke was decent aswel as was Coffey.

Of course it is.
 
The grassroots always produced (and still does) good players, but people like Packie Bonner, Don Givens etc hadn't a clue what to do with the talent that was given to them.
 
The PDP introduced by the Doktor will take 5-10 years but the results are starting to show now.
 
All we have to do is get rid of Delaney.

Decent draw although Bosnia and Denmark knocked out France.  Definitely better to avoid Group D although we play one of their teams if we get out of the group.  Belgium are normally decent but haven't impressed and just got in.  

No way home on the night of the first 2 games but the Bosnia game is easily doable as a day trip from Dublin.

Just read that the 2019 Under 17 World Cup qualifying places will actually be decided from next years Euros which we are hosting. 

Already qualified as hosts and automatically top seeds. Top 6 places to get to the World Cup which is then held in Peru. Be some trip

tough draw but not as tough as group D or A.it defiantly could have been a lot worse.

Also none of our games are on TV apparently.  Indeed the tournament may not even be on TV.

EuroSport always shows every underage tournament, unless they have lost the rights. With it being held in England you would think BT would pick up some of the games

Aye 2 out of our 3 games were on Eurosport last time, someone somewhere will pick it up.. Prob still under negotiation.

Normally in these tournaments the same stadiums are used for TV games.  The schedule of games can be tweaked slightly to suit TV coverage.  I would imagine in this case it would only be the Football League grounds.  

I believe the Eurosport contract is up.  It may of course be renewed or somebody else may take the TV rights.

Going to try and get there myself if I can - Engineering works on the trains not making it easy though !

If you're in London, there are plenty of direct trains running on the 5th, from St Pancras to Loughborough, and some even run non-stop (they go to Sheffield and the first stop for some is Loughborough).

Now there may be works coming from other parts of the country but from London, it's straightforward and not too pricey booked in advance.

It's the line West from London that's my problem : Closed for big chunks of that weekend due to electrification.

Not sure just know can buy tickets through the FA now

Per Wiki Loughborough has a capacity of 3,300.
That match is on 5.45 on a Sat bank holiday. 
Would that sell out?

The other matches are during the week.
St George’s only holds 1,500 tho.

Looks like this wont be televised anywhere in whole Cry

ITV4 are showing Englands games and ESPN3 are showing a handful of bigger games (None of ours).

Id say we'll be lucky to find a few betting streams.

I don’t think this is the squad.

Sean Cassidy has just tweeted about how he’s looking forward to playing in the Euro’s. He’s not in this squad. 


Posted By: Saints Fan

That's not the Squad for this tournament that was the pervious squad for the elite phase, Ryan Cassidy is one of the changes he has made, its all over social media so no secret on that which means another player is either injured or has lost out.

I cant imagine that 4 strikers will be brought so its hard to know who he's replaced until the squad is announced?
