All Ireland u21 football championship 2015

[ross4life]

Criostoir Davey,Kevin McDonnell, Cian Breheny would be a few Sligo seniors that will line out for their U-21s on Wedneday i can imagine then all the Henrys Cathal,Kevin,Liam,Stephen who are all good footballers.  Sligo have given us good competitive games at both minor,U21 the last two years and i would expect more of the same in Kiltoom. Hopefully weatherwise its a good night for football & of course we win.

How dare you have the temerity to suggest that ye're boys won't just roll over in the face of the Rossie juggernaut, Seanie

Coming from the Globetrotters themselves that's some going Mac.

Keep yer rhubarb nose put of this 
I'd be surprised if we don't do the business but expect a full blooded challenge from the Shliigos.

[Shrewdness]

I didn't say that i expected Sligo to roll over, only that i expect Ros to win... No need for that attitude Seanie.

Interested to find out, perhaps the Kerry men can shed some light. Are those players on the 'extended Kerry panel' not expected to take any part in the U21 championship? Are they on a fast track to the Kerry senior panel as such??

I would assume that they are just part of the training panel - Conor Keane came on in the league for Kerry this year so you would think he's the player closest to the senior setup.

Looking at the Kerry squad and surname and clubs is like playing a game of spot the relative  - the Spillanes of Templenoe are the ones that obviously jump out.
Does anyone know if Niall Sheehy is anything to Mikey Sheehy - looks like the wrong Tralee club though?
Is Kevin McCarthy Kilcummin anything to Michael McCarthy?
Is Cathal Murphy Rathmore anthing to Paul Murphy?

I think Sligo may run Ros close. I'm hearing sligo have a decent u21 team and throw in the Roscommon arrogance and possible complacency and a shock could be on the cards.

[Rossfan]

Roscommon arrogance!!!
Jasis but that's a new one.

[Syferus]

 

If anyone thinks Roscommon will be complacent against Sligo they have zero sense for the recent history between the teams at minor and U21. Most of this panel were almost ambushed last Spring in Sligo.

Sligo's approach to their U21 team has left much to be desired regardless of the result on Wednesday.

[weareros]

If anything will fell Ros it's the amount of football the young lads have already played this year, between Colleges and both grades of county. You can be sure Murtagh and Smith will be required again on Sunday for the game against Meath - 3 big games in 1 week. That's on top of the heavy duties DCU required of Smith. Serious burnout territory.

Is Kevin McCarthy Kilcummin anything to Michael McCarthy? - Younger brother.
Is Cathal Murphy Rathmore anthing to Paul Murphy?- Younger, bigger, potentially better brother!

FYI Dhá Láimh.

What attitude? Are you confusing me with someone else?
