Yeah which is fair enough as the 3 man panel have not met him yet. I would rather wait for Trap than just give it to Venables tonight.

10 more days maximum Statement just made
I reckon it will be Venables, they're playing a dangerous game with him by stringing him along and it could blow up in their faces if Trapattoni is mucking about. they could be left with no-one so I'm saying El Tel to be announced any minute.
10 days. im sick of this!!!!!!!!!
Saint what difference does it make, 10 days is not going to make a difference. Why the rush.
The 3 amigo's are clearly paid by the day......
Farce!
disregard my careless punt for Tel, they may as well have announced that he won't be getting it. They must be preparing a serious package for Trap
"the new manager will be present in croke park for the brazil match" haha :D
They hardly told the press they'd issue a statement, if they thought they'd just announce a 10 day maximum. Sounds like there's been a hitch with appointing Trapattoni which they for some reason thought they'd be able to unveil tonight as a coup.
Exactly. Something has happened with Trappottoni. Maybe he does not want to be interviewed and wants to be offered the job (which to me is fair enough). Maybe Givens annoyed him when they spoke on the phone. Delaney should be talking to Trapp's not Givens.Quote:

They are yet again a disgrace to Irish football with their amateurism.
Trapattoni was in a job, and he has only come into the reckoning this week because he contacted the FAI or the FAI contacted him. Read the Tribune article today about what has happened.
That article also says Houllier stopped returning calls to Givens (head Amigo). I would get Givens out of the loop and let Delaney and his advisors handle this.Quote:

Again I ask, why was contact only made this week? John Delaney should be fcuked out of office for this mess. We'll end up with another muppet of a manager, wait and see. The FAI should be appointing a manager not passing the buck.Quote:

You're exactly right about getting Givens out of the picture. Trapattoni does not have to answer to Don fecking Givens, his record speaks for itself. Delaney should be in charge of this, and quite simply offer Trap the best deal possible.
If we don't get Trapattoni, the FAI will struggle to save face with the appointment of Venables. It's perfectly clear that he's a last resort now, and how will Delaney/The Amigos be able to say he was the man they wanted all along?
It is appropriate that the Undertones are opening with a song about w*nk ing at the Awards ceremony.
Don Givens, the Chairman of the Selection Panel set up to recruit the next manager of the Republic of Ireland senior international team, tonight met with the Board of Management of the Football Association of Ireland to update them on the process.
He gave the ten Board members a progress report on the work done by himself and the other members of the Selection Panel, Ray Houghton and Don Howe, since he last spoke to the Board.
He indicated that the Panel’s work will be completed within ten days and that an appointment is imminent.
The Board expressed their satisfaction with the progress report.
I think a few of you are feeling the same way you felt when you were told there was no such thing as Santa Claus. You had your hopes up for X mas and now you are dissappointed and you are blaming your parents for it.
mind blowing stuff!
My lad has gone all floppy again. :mad::o:(Quote:

Trappatoni has a fine CV but he no speka da english, I'm sorry but if the coach can't communicate with the players mano-a-mano then I don't see it working out.
Radio 5 are saying Big Sam's advisors have contacted the FAI and he wants to be considered for the job. They are saying that is the reason for the delay! Surely not.
This is a trouser dropping farce, an episode of something similar was dropped from Blackadder for being too farcial :(
Rubbish. Gus Hiddink didn't learn Korean or Russian. If Trapa can learn German then he'll have no problem picking up English.Quote:

There is no way that they would be interviewing Trapattoni for the job. It would be a question of a meeting to work out the details of job description/commitments/salary and contract.Quote:

Maybe Delaney the politician was in too much of a hurry to get it all done before the big awards night and have the news beamed live on RTE.
Well...nobody else wants him..... Strange...He didn't want the job a month ago!!!!....the fool must have thought that he'd get another job in the Premiership, but since nothing's come up he's changed his mind.Quote:
