safcdccc · 19th April 2012, 10:07 AM

anyone got a list of the 80 picked so far?

I looked for it last night to no avail. You would think since the Media are rolling all these names out that it would be available to see somewhere!

Wonder if any of our lot have been selected. How young do they have to be again? Colback has to be in with a chance.

Fraizer was modelling the kit somewhere I think so he's clearly in

Cant see it myself. Isnt it only 3 players aged over 23? You really think that FC is going to be one of those 3 ahead of the likes of Beckham, Bellamy etc

Dinnar, nee idea. I've got no idea about the age brackets and all that either tbh

If anyone is still see this desperate charade of a competition 90% of the tickets are unsold at Hampden, the 10% were probably bought by Rangers fans.

That's a bit silly how he modelled that kit a while back, I wonder if its something crazy like under 23 as of 2010 or such like.

Either way there will be quotas of Scots (Barry Robson at Boro is one), Welsh & Northern Irish in + the 3 oldies. Guess the oldies is more interesting - Beckham is a certainty and then I reckon the likes of Giggs/Bellamy and a player from a London club

If beckham, giggs and Bellamy are in this squad I'll definitely have more interest in it than England at the euros. I'm well aware that the Olympics is after the euros but still...

Is the rule not like the under-21's where you have to be under that age at the start of the qualifying campaign?

I actually have no idea tbh.
