The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist thinks it will change; the realist adjusts the sails.
Hope he does well really will be interesting to see how he gets on
He's a great appointment from their perspective.
He'll hardly manage to make a silk purse out of the sows ear that is their national squad ...but he'll be a huge asset to their youth setup and as a re-organiser (if neccessary) of the structures of football there. There's likely to be a limited amount you can do with a country who's population is about that of Waterford but best of luck to him.

Huge step up from St. Pats.
He was a really good Ireland manager and was only disliked because he wasn't British enough for the Ole' Ole' Sheeple and RTEngland, but this is a good job as its not the other side of the world and not too much pressure.
Good Luck to him.
terrible job to take hes better that that, going nowhere in a job like that. only aim is to see how to keep the score down from game to game. pity but wish him well.
Good luck to him. The only way is up for the islanders surely?
whatever it is its too much
a coup on faroe islands part but seriously he's got nothing to work with. imo he should be managing a national teams like Macedonia, Bosnia, Latvia etc where he can do something but with faroes not a chance.
good luck kerr. i wish him the best
Whats the odds on us drawing the Faroes in our Euro 2012 qualifying group?
Quoting years at random since 1975
A bit of a comedown to be honest, I was always expecting him to go back into LoI management at some point. As people said, I don't think he got a fair crack of the whip as Ireland manager.
Think it's a good move for him, agree that he's good enough to manage a latvia or a macedonia squad and I reckon a couple of good draws and a win, however unlikely, with the faroes excuse for a squad would get him that bit of attention...
