Woo, go Powell, go Paddy!

Meh, doesn't look like that strong of a squad on paper tbh. But I suppose it's the best of whats available in our league atm.

Delighted for Stephen Mulcahy, the only 1st division player included. He has been playing well for City

Nice to see Billy Dennehy included as well.

Great stuff, but the squad's so thin they could do without them being involved.Hopefully they'll come through it injury free!

Greg Bolger should never have got in there, Davey Mac or to a lesser extent Shane McFaul should have gotten in there ahead of him.

Very well, when not injured. Scored the winner away to Bohs.

Congrats to Gary and Padraig

Anyone else surprised that Shane McFaul wasn't selected?

I am. Also surprised that McAllister and Maher were not picked also. Doolin obviously isn't picking players based on current form.

Looks like a very poor side. Shocking that McFaul's not in it either.

That side looks like a really good 'footballing' side to me.
Will be interesting to see how they get on.
Will the U-23s be doing the English scouts work for them?

Great to see four of our lads in there.

Also suprised that Mc Faul and Mc allister didnt make it. From what iv been hearing though, they are both on standby.

Hopefully all come back injury free. We have enough injuries so far this season. Dont need any more.

He is too old.

Its the best side out there with the constraints. Very attack minded with no defensive midfilders in there. Should handle the English with ease.
