Italy-Serbia match has been suspended due to crowd trouble

20:28: Here's some news for you, and it isn't good. The start of the Italy-Serbia qualifier has been delayed because of Serbia fans throwing flares on to the pitch and lighting fireworks. The teams came out and began to line up for the national anthems but then were sent back into the changing rooms as police in riot gear came out to confront the fans.

2043: More bad news from Genoa where the match at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium between Italy and Serbia has been suspended because of the crowd trouble. Referee Craig Thomson has called a halt to proceedings after seven minutes

I don't think that's allowed? He's represented England at u21 level so I don't think he'd qualify for Ireland?

AFAIK you can switch national teams unless you've made a senior team appearance. Age level football doesn't count.

Ah okay, because I was going to refer to the Mikel Arteta for England senario but having re-read into that..

FIFA Statutes stipulate that the player needs to have held a British passport at the time when he represented Spain at the U16 European Championships

So I guess as long as Noble has an Irish passport, he'll be alright?

Noble was never going to have a chance in hell of getting in the England squad under Capello, so I can see why he would switch. A shame becuase he is the type of player England really needs.

Yeh he seemed confused about why Almuia was being linked to play with England that time so defintly cant see it
