UNBACKABLE favourite Terry Venables is still completely in the dark about his chances of being the next Republic of Ireland manager, it emerged last night.
The ex-England coach revealed that he has not been interviewed, nor contacted, by the three-man FAI head-hunting committee charged with finding a replacement for Steve Staunton.
Venables told Newstalk FM that he has heard nothing from Messrs Don Givens, Ray Houghton or Don Howe — even though Ireland’s prestige friendly against Brazil at Croke Park is now less than a month away.
