Does Jock Stein count? He wasn't huge, but he was never going to run many marathons!Quote:

Cesena 1995-1998. In the three years there Cesena just plodded along in Serie B
Italy U21 1998-2000. European Champions
Inter Milan 2000-2001. Most of us will remember him for selling Robbie Keane without ever really giving him a chance. Most Inter fans will him remember for losing 6-0 to AC Milan. Sacked
Bari 2002-2003. Sacked
Egypt 2004-2005. Sacked
Arezzo 2005. Team from Liga Pro Prima (Italy's answer to the Blue Square Premier) Sacked
No a great record.
and why would he leave Fulham to manage Ireland? No chance.Quote:

Delaney will be desperate to whore himself for a big name
I'd bet me house on Tardelli or Dave O' Leary, basically Tardelli could get it because he's there now so they can blah blah blah on about "continuity" and if they finally cop on that he's not manager material (which his record seems to suggest) they'll for for Dave O' Leary because he's
Irish
Available
Affordable
Keen to get working again
Actually knows enough about Football to do the job
and of course they'll gloss over the b***s-up he made at Leeds
....mind you an international job might suit him as signing players is not a part of the job... this is what he and Ridsdale were worst at.....
apart from me i dont really see anyone wanting to see brady take the number 1 role with tardelli as his second. i wouldnt really want to see tardelli as number 1.
Steve Coppell
Lawrie Sanchez is still in the market - imo you could do a lot worse!
No thanksQuote:

David Moyes works with fairly untalented, hard-working players and makes them successful and that's the exact same environment within the Ireland squad.
Moyes would be a perfect choice
I'd rather David Jeffrey or Alan McDonald than him.Quote:

Credit where it is due.
Arteta, Cahill, Lescott, , Howard, PienaarQuote:

I think the Irish team is more talented so Moyes would be a brilliant manager.
When I say untalented, I mean Aston Villa and Manchester City finished below them, these two teams are far more talented. What I mean is they're not very talented for a team continually finishing 5th in the Premier League.
Arteta is a top top player. Cahill is one of the most useful attackers in the Premier League, and Tim Howard is very consistent and a great athlete.Quote:

Duff would be a squad player at best on Everton I believe.
OK but back to the point Moyes would be a top class manager.Quote:

*And I would not be keen on either of them
There was a story in one of the papers last week that Moyes was being lined up to replace Ferguson at United.Probably rubbish as most paper stories are but if its true I dont think he would turn them down to manage us:)
pat fenlon for me
I'd rather Martin O'Neill to manage United, then at least I could talk about them.Quote:
