Lawrie Sanchez

He wouldn't be my first choice as new Irish Manager, but I've just read that Lawrie Sanchez has been dismissed from Fulham. What I'm wondering is will the FAI Trinity be contacting him? Do they even know he's been dismissed? I've been chatting with employment agencies round Dublin this week so I know that for every regular job it's headhunting as usual, week before Christmas or not. Why do I get the impression that the FAI are already closed for business.

By the way my first choice has always been Roy Hodgson. Love the way Inter have snapped him up in a hurry, not even for a managerial role. Early bird. Paul Doyle writes in the Guardian, "....and Roy Hodgson isn't being considered because he has a proven track record of improving theresults of small countries."

Merry Christmas All

Heavy dose of sarcasm there.

Worth a new thread?

Sorry i started another thread on this, should have read this first. The FAI dont seem to want to contact anyone if the stories are to be believed. And anyway if hodgson isnt man enough to apply for the job or even show interest in it then i dont want him, hes full of himself and full of ****!!

Beat Italy. Get beaten at home 5-2 by Macedonia. And then when we don't quaify the FAI will hold a celebration down at the mansion house celebrating our "Great Victory" over Italy. Errr No.

Lawrie Sanchez has a better track record at international level than at club level.
All in all a bad week for ex-Sligo Rovers bosses :D

I was hoping ni would approach him as soon as he was sacked,but they still seem to be going down the worthington road unfortunately.Lawrie would be a good signing for the republic and withiut being sarcastic has as good a record as any international manager who works with limted resources.

No offence taken. I think your international team is in better shape than ours currently and long may the improved form continue for the wee North. What we down here need to do is match your efforts!

Well to be fair Cork qualify for Europe more often than Fulham or any of the bottom 12 in the English Premier League :D

This is not the time to be appointing a manager with a good record of working with "limited resources". Garvan, Ireland, McGeady, Stokes, Gibson, McCarthy, etc. coming through are a lot more continental in style rather than British. They're all very technically gifted players and most of them natural playmakers. You want a manager that'll play to their strengths which is a good passing game.

Totally agree Eirebhoy you have hit the nail on the head, that is why I believe Hodgson is the man for the job.

Aye in a Sunderland team with a bunch of players who don't seem to know what a through ball is.
