    Played against shay given at underage. Spent 90 mins in their half, won 1-0 with a deflected goal. No prizes for guessing man of the match in that game.

    Andy Reid saw me sitting on the bench while his Dublin Schoolboy league team beat Limerick SL in the final of the Kennedy cup about 13 or so years ago. I was still underage the following year though so I was just enjoying the experience! :D

    Brian Kerr selected me in his U-16 squad about 11 years ago. I trained a few times but unfortunately never managed to get a cap out of it. Always remembered the last session I had with them.......I returned home from Dublin to the news that Princess Diana died in a crash.

    Always looked forward to when people would ask "Where were you when you heard Princess Di died"?

    "Oh I was training with the Irish team". :pac:

    Not 100% sure cos I played in front of thousands at some stage :cool: (sounds grander than it was, was in the reserves and we regularly played right before the first team with the stadium filling up) but I had a kickabout with Thomas Haessler and Christian Ziege once.
