Players omitted from England U21 squad

[Grob]

i might start calling them the england elite squad

[Niall Quinns Discopants]

isn't he too old for the U21's? i.e by the time the comp starts he won't be eligible ?

I had to check and yes, he is eligible. That's because U21's competitions are always so that if you are turn 21 during the calendar year when QUALIFICATION starts, you are eligible to play in the competition. U21 qualification started 2009, the year Micah turned 21. If my memory serves me, the tournament is held in july meaning Micah could be 23 by the time of the final!

If Richards makes the full england squad then it just shows how bad England are.

If it takes Richards making the full England squad for you to realise how bad England are then you're not a genius. And I'd imagine you're not Georgian either!

That's a tribute to Georgi Kinkladze. Genius yourself.
