I deleted the above message because I don;t want to get anyone in trouble, let's just say Superhoops don't be so naive.

Out of that list a lot of those 'candidates' are unrealistic and unachievable. Gerard Houllier would be by far and away my first choice. Houllier would actually be quite a coup, doubt he'd take the job though.Quote:

He'd be 100 times better and more astute than Staunton but he's just smarmy, couldn't see myself taking to him. The rest on the list are all s**t or ridiculous.
We need a decent coach who knows his tactics and how to organise a team and win games. Especially away from home. This is why I'd choose Houllier hands down. But any coach with those credentials will at the very least have us competing at the top of the group again...
Stan will be gone for financial reasons. The FAI need to sell 10000 10 year tickets to finance Lansdown road, with the numbers not turning up last night after paying at least €50 and others walking out before the end, this is not going to happen.
Delaney was on the pitch last night at the end of the game and there was no support for Stan after the game. Todays interview was used to distance himself from the appointment. So the game will be up after the Wales game.
Just on the news that Delaney has had his contract extended until 2012, that will stop any cu.
Off Topic but it's interesting to note that Stephen Kenny was 80/1 to get the Ireland job 2 years ago and he's 25/1 now.
So you reckon he'll be 6/1 after Venables goes?
Steve Copell has publicly expressed an interest in managing an international team. Can't see him getting the England job if McClown gets the boot. So he would be my first choice to be approached.
who are you all kidding, why would coppell, houllier, or deschamps want to manage ireland... its a deathtrap
John Sheridan will be the next Ireland manager.
Isn't he managing Oldham? Do we really want a League 1 manager (even one who took his team to the playoffs last year)? Don't get me wrong, he'd be better than Stan, but I think we can do better. I love McAteer, but his experience is about the same as Stans was (player-coach...I can't remember who mentioned McAteer). Even Mark Kinsella would be better as he has some knowledge working in Charlton's backroom.Quote:

At this point, i don't really care to much about the next manager just that the current manager gets booted out da fcuk. When i seen this thread my heart started beating like a dog with 2 dciks, but soon after entering the thread i felt like a dog that just had his balls cut off!!
Cavan_Fan QUALITY :D :DQuote:
I'm in charge of construction work and paperclips (unless we win in which case it was all me)
thats exactly what i read as well from the interview, plus that big dopey head on him like he got caught in the sun and is trying to look away. He is such a little weasel on a one man crusade to right his fathers stupid doings. Stupidness clearly runs in teh family. What i didnt like was giles making out he was a great man, for the "average" fan they will take that as gold.
Three people made the appointment," said Delaney. "It was a sub-committee of the FAI of three people who made the appointment of the management team. "It's unfortunate that I've been personally linked to the appointment when there was a sub-committee of three which was ratified by the board of the FAI, which is a committee of 10."
"As the association's top official, Delaney led a three-man sub-committee charged with finding a successor to Brian Kerr whose reign ended two years ago tomorrow. FAI president David Blood and the association's honorary secretary Michael Cody were the other two officials involved"
Delaney is a snake alright, how can he distance himself ?

I think Kinsella is involved with the Academy at CharltonQuote:

He was paid as a "coach" to disguise player costs as far as I know. I don't think he was even coach at Walsall in any capacity.
Open to correction...
Get a guy who knows international football. An experienced coach who knows the international football game. Its a different skill to taking Wigan or Reading and doing well by wealing and dealing and working with your players week in week out.
My thoughts exactly when I saw that. Cowardly and there cannot possibly be any chance of Stan keeping his job after a comment like that.Quote:

yeah but the problem is if (BIG IF!) we get rid of him who'll replace him? It'll more than likely be another one of the backstabbers that take the helm and it'll be the same ould sh!te again...Quote:

This, of course, will not happen.....
Cheers, wasn't sure about his exact roleQuote:

Spot on Stutts....He was given the "dual role" of player/coach to allow his salary demand not to break the Club's wage structure.Merson had his own coaches.Quote:

Delaney reminds me of Puncius Pilot (sic). Not my problem the board of management have to make up their minds on what to do with Stan.
As regards a new manager, what about Martin Jol and Chris Haughton, who will soon be looking for work. Robbie might score a few goals.
Cant see us attracting a top European coach so I think I would go for Dave O'Leary. I know he wasted a lot of money, but he did manage to get Leeds to the semi-final of the Champions league and finish consistently high in their respective league.
In reality, you cant look further than O' Leary. He is very familiar with the irish international scene and he has plenty of experience in club management at the highest level with Leeds. People will bandy about other names but I cant see anyone else getting near the position.
Why not Roy Hodgson

hmmm, i knew you had a funny sense of being, its even more apparent now.
In a job at present, who's to say he'll want to leave? Dislikes the english media and our media has practically dragged itself down to their level over the last few years. Sending people dressed as muppets out to training gsessions ffs, who actually finds sh1t like that amusing??Quote:

Can't argue with that but a lot of people seem to assume that if we just ask we'll get, I've seen a lot of names touted on here that wouldn't contemplate leaving their present jobs to manage us.Quote:

i heard he was only on minimum wage at walsallQuote:
