Maybe it's time for, Plan C ? !

I'm probably misremembering previous manager hunts, but I get the feeling there weren't so few genuine candidates previously (I'm not counting people who tell the newspapers they'd be interested in the job). At the moment it feels like Carsley or Lennon. Hughton is peripheral and I think that's about it.
So if Carsley declines and the Lennon interest is taken down after general public reaction, where does that leave us after three months? (And tbh given how quickly Kenny was let go, the FAI must have been considering other options before November)
I'd imagine a good few of the managers from the Asia / African cup will become available now that the tournaments are wrapping up. Could someone like Hugo Broos be worth a look? He took a quite frankly poor South Africa side (almost all play in SA, one or two in european leagues but none in the top leagues) to the semi final, losing on pens to Nigeria. Several league titles with brugge in his home country.
He is 71 though which I feel is a factor in any appointment (should it be?).

Can you imagine treating your clients like this in your normal day to day life
That's what we are, their clients and they think they can sh*t on us
Maybe some fans were drunk though?
I mean, it's a possibility
John Eustace is being linked with the Blackburn job.
Fifty four pages of thread lads, Christmas came & went, then January and in its turn the NL draw arrived too & Spring, yet still we wait.
Gotta be this week ? Right ? RIGHT ? :)
Have a look at social media and you'll be shocked at the amount who actually do want Keane. Off The Ball did a survey a couple weeks ago and Roy Keane was 1st choice, he had 19% more votes than Lennon and Carsley who were joint 2nd.... dont underestimate the stupidity of the Irish "football" public
Sounds more like you shouldn't underestimate the stupidity of Off The Ball listeners
Would Keane have had better results than Stephen Kenny?
