Here's to the 2020 WC Qualifying Campaign, with McCarthy in charge, Kilbane on the left wing, Harte at Left Full and O'Shea having retired from International Football without even getting a start..... :eek:Quote:

:rolleyes: I didn't mean indefinately, he shouldn't be given a new contract after the 04 qualifying. I just don't see the point in sacking him now and rushing in an inadequate replacement.Quote:

It's pretty straight forward as regards to 'the whole RK thing'. MOst of the taking sides thing has faded away and people are generally agreeing that McCarthy must go, not because of Saipan or anything, but because he has run his course as a manager and is turning out to be a VERY bad tactician and really IMO could only hack it as a coach and not a general decision maker.
But the unfortunate thing is that we are always going to have an inadequate replacement, as the FAI simply doesn't pay enough..... why do you think McCarthy got the job in first place? Because of his proven track record with those top flight kingpins Millwall????? :confused:
i hear the FAI are offering E800,000 - not very much in international standards, but stil more than the 500,000 ther're giving Mick
I don´t support him at all- except when it comes to him refusing to allow keane in the squad. I think he should go, in the medium term at worst but only when a decent replacement is available. And anyone who suggests Dave O´Leary must be bonkers- the guy is an awful manager.Quote:

Yeah, I'd have to agree with you there. I think that, perversely, that may be what will keep him in the job. People will support him because of the Roy thing, otherwise his support would be lower.

As I said above, the FAI simply don't have the money to get a decent replacement....... Again, that's how we ended up with Muppet Mick!!!!! btw The money issue immediately rules out O'Dreary......Quote:

I agree, McCarthy has lost the squad - fresh face, fresh ideas..... the team and McCarthy just seem tired and devoid of inspiration..... But I'd dispute all of the contenders are not better than McCarthy - Brian Kerr for Ireland!!!!!Quote:

Some half good points made but then you went for the 12-year old comment...
