I reckon Brady will get the Director of International Performance position.

What time is the AGM on today?
Has there been much movement in the market for Tigana? Heard one those "inside stories" that he's been approached! Don't have access here to any betting sites.
If Brady gets the job you really would have to laugh, after sacking staunton the FAI we were to believe were looking for a manager with a high level of experience. ....A unexperienced ex player, hmmm that sounds familiar (STAN)....a manager who is used to managing kids mainly(Kerr)...The FAI could do the double and repeat the same mistakes of the last two managers in one man!
The bookies are manipulating the market again. Brady coming in to 2/1. Tigana reappears at 8/1. PP and the others are making a fortune on this.
Yep, most definitely. 8's now in from 40's this morning so!
Radio 5 are suggesting that Houghtons comments this morning that "he" is not ready to recommend a candidate means he wants the amigos to interview Souness and possibly Daglish (if Daglish is willing to be interviewed)
Ray ray can go and ***** ..how many more non-entities do they want to interview for the job....jooke!
Not Ready? In fairness he's had since November to get ready. It's a joke really and the game v Brazil (which I'm assuming is their deadline) will be the punchline to this fiasco. Should they take the finger out and employ someone today, what timeframe does that give any coach to survey over the talents that are at his disposal? What we'll end up with for this match is a squad picked by Givens and a starting XI largely influenced by his opinion. I know it's only a minor friendly but it doesn't exactly give the new man the best platform to start from.
FAI has said the Brazil match is not necessarily the deadline. I agree. Now they've gone so far they should see the process through. If Houghton has his doubts and wants to exhaust all realistic opportunities then that's OK by me. At least he's being thorough.
I just wanted to have post 2007, in honour of the start of this process. By the way I think a good point was made on page 73, though I cant remember it
