davenportram Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 Conor Doyle has been called up for Ireland Under 21's - gets to go to Cyprus and everything. Good luck to the lad. Geoff Hendrick is on standby - not bad for someoen who qualifies for the under 19's still http://www.dcfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10270~2279484,00.html Doyle Receives Ireland Call Posted on: Sat 29 Jan 2011 Derby County's Conor Doyle has been named in the Republic of Ireland's under-21 squad for their friendly match with Cyprus next week. The Texas-born 19-year-old attacker recently represented the USA under-20s against Canada in Florida and only returned from a training camp a fortnight ago. He qualifies to play for Ireland through his Dublin-born father and has been named in Ireland's 19-man squad to face Cyprus at the GSZ Stadium in Larnaca on Wednesday 9th February 2011. International rules state Doyle can play for both countries below full senior level, and in December he revealed he is yet to make a decision which country he will represent. Doyle has made 10 first-team appearances for Derby this season in the npower Championship. Fellow Derby midfielder Jeff Hendrick, who has impressed for the Ireland under-19s in recent months, is on standby for the under-21s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorksopRam Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 Looking forward to how Doyle will develop. I think he'll really start to come into his own within a year or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CumbrianRam Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Hendrick seems to be doing well for the Irish under-19s who have just qualified for the European Championship which will take place in late July http://www.dcfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10270~2367824,00.html http://www.therams.co.uk/news/Hendrick-duty-Republic-clinch-win-Italy/article-3607785-detail/article.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p.shilton Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Doyle couldn't have hoped for this when he signed for us. It can only help his development having these games for Ireland and the USA- I bet there is a huge clash of styles between the 2 dressing rooms though. Wonder which he'll choose to play for if he gets the senior call up? I reckon USA- being as he is actually American. From what we have seen of him at Derby he still has a long way to go to become a quality player but this must bode well for his development and a pat on the back to management is required if he makes the step up. Fair play to Hendrick too, hope to see him step into the first team in the next few seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NothernRam Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 [sIZE=3]Did not know where to ask it let it be here.[/sIZE] [sIZE=3]Anybody knows something about our first-year professionals. I mean age, positions and are they any good?[/sIZE] [sIZE=3]Looks like Aaron Cole is a striker. Alex Witham is a centre mid. But what about Chris Jones? [/sIZE][sIZE=3]Is he left-back?[/sIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
