Has Johnny Mac finished managing up north ? I know he was part time (also works as a taxi driver in Dublin). Best of luck to him in Faroe Islands, good football man unlucky at Pats (in my humble opinion) :)

He used to work in the Science labs there when I was a student. You'd occasionally see him take in superleague games, don't know if he ever found any Pats stars there, not in the mudbaths we played in.

Kerr loves football more than anyone I know. he'll literally watch any game. He definitely unearthed some gems for Pats down the years.
