Old friends reunited in the Faroe Islands
Soccer: Former St Patrick's Athletic manager Johnny McDonnell has been appointed as assistant-coach of the Faroe Islands. McDonnell will work alongside former Republic of Ireland manager Brian Kerr in the north Atlantic outpost.
Saw that on TV3 earlier, quare appointment to say the least.
Best of Luck to McDonnell!
Are both working in a full-time capacity? Good move I guess for Johnny, I wonder will he fly back for MNS?
good luck johnny

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